Share your memories, pictures, stories and opinions about the arena tour visuals here. All the visuals were so memorable and exciting - the frames, the book, their outfits, the captions, the ball - everything. I still have some confetti from Bournemouth which I've framed. I loved that every song had its own frame, with different colours and patterns and there were the little round screens on the backdrop displaying lots of weird and wonderful things - they all fitted so well. I've been watching the Dublin DVD recently and decided to screencap all of them for every song. Here is the first batch:  Mothman  Underdog  Where Did All The Love Go?  Swarfiga  Shoot The Runner (I'm so sure they used this same one for the Doberman in Birmingham too)  Cutt Off  Processed Beats  West Ryder Silver Bullet  Thick As Thieves  Take Aim |

I miss that tour, it was so special.
- The countdown, which started over when it got to 0
- The searchlights and the intro on the sceen above the stage, "which side are you on" etc.
- Idiots and lunatics
- Jack Kerouac hipster quotes
- The curtain, and Mothman starting before the curtain opened, and the moment the curtain opened and they were lit in blue from the back
- The rotating thing on the left side which kept changing, and it said a different combination of words at each gig
- Their four faces morphing into each other on the screens during Thick as Thieves
- The flare for Vlad, lighters for The Doberman

Where did you get the DVD from?I saw Julie on you tube and it was so cleaned up if you know what I mean ,it lost some of the rawness and it doesnt pack that much of a punch to the guts ,this song deserves ,needs to be played again.
The opener with the crew waving the incense things? and the boiler suits the countdown the intro and finally the curtains getting drawn and seeing Tom with his leather clad fist in the air he just looked so ahhhh.And Chris,Jay like the masked man all the small little details made up the bigger picture.
And having Noel as Vlad running across the stage with Tom kicking the heads into the audience was another highlight at Wembley .
On a whole the atmosphere was different to Velociraptor ,the crowd was different so maybe that's why I prefer WR tour to the last.

Where did you get the DVD from? It comes with the Velociraptor deluxe edition. Dave and Domenico's Speech. The book. That was somehow a major incentive for me to go in the first place, people came back from Newcastle: "there's a giant book on stage" I was like right I need to see this. Hamlet quotes. The frames in general, although you couldn't really get the full effect from the barrier. I love Wiz. Come back Wiz. |

Yesterday it was 5 years since I saw the first gig of this tour at Wembley arena, so was having a little nostalgic moment today and made more screencaps  Empire. I really liked that they used lyrics from different songs for some of the frames.  The end of Empire, the same caption as in the vid  Last Trip, the suprise of the tour.  Again, they used a line from another song. One of the prettiest frames.  I.D.  Ladies and Gentlemen  Fire  Fast Fuse. With the old outro. It was so amazing, so explosive, so wild.  The Doberman. I'll get used to any setlist and any song but not to the absence or short versions of this.  Club Foot tbc. |
