‘Tired Of Winning’ with its funky bassline, the in-your-face ‘FACE IT’ and the more docile ‘I’ll
Be OK’, which goes out to anyone ‘dealing with some shit’, all add to the quality set.
‘Fadein/Fadeout’ is a special song, going out to all of the father figures that Mark says really
showed us the way and lit the torch in the darkness. He wrote it in relation to his own father. It’s
quite an emotional song that really tugs at your heart. The show ends, not with an encore, as
Jonny tells the audience that the band don’t do encores, but with one final number, ‘This Is The
Time (Ballast)’. The band incite the crowd to jump up and down as high as they can, and towards
the end of the song bring out drums, which Mark, Dan and then Jonny all drum on, Jonny bringing
two drums down to the front row of the crowd. It’s an exciting ending that wraps the show up
perfectly, leaving everyone eager to see Nothing More back in the UK again. This show did not
hurt at all – in fact, it was nothing but sheer pleasure.
YYYYY
