My sympathies to Nicky but thene there isn't much room on stage at Wolverhampton anyway! The main thing was that you sounded better than ever. Cheers guys.

"Sadly the audience around us in Brighton were typical dumb f**k Oasis fans who held a shouted conversation all the way through Williams Last Words."

Yeah, I remember that. I was there. Bloody ignorant w*nkers. They should have been sent out. Otherwise bloody cracking gig. No fault to the Manics, of course. :)

Hope you get well soon Nicky. A prolapsed disc is really painful, and that still doesn't describe it accurately. I admire you for carrying on the tour. Most musicians would be like "I've got a broken fingernail, I can't go on." You are an example to us all.

Sadly the audience around us in Brighton were typical dumb f**k Oasis fans who held a shouted conversation all the way through Williams Last Words.

Saw the Manics for the 6th time when we went to LLandudno on the 26th and they were awesome. Nicky showed a lot of guts for his fans when playing on through a back pain and theres not many artists out there prepared to do that, fans or not! Richey would have been proud. One of the guys with us on the night was seeing his first ever concert and he was totally blown away. You couldn't have picked a better band to see live. Thanks LLandudno for a great venue.

Going for an operation next wednesday that should sort it out. You should get some Dihydrocodeine from the doctor Nicky. They are the only reason I was able to make it to the gig at all!

Was at the Gig on the 29th at the Roundhouse. Amazing. I haven't seen the band since I was about 18. Long time. I can't believe I had forgotten how wonderful you are live.

Poor Nicky back ache sucks. James you were amazing. Saw you on breakfast in the morning and thought the interviewr was a bit insensitive but you dealt with it well. Can't wait to see you love again.

We are now looking forward to the gig in Middelfart. It is because you guys - we will be there. We love your new cd. Great CD.

Nicky - your consummate professionalism & humility continue to amaze me & restore my faith in humanity especially - dare i say it - male humanity. Swimming, gentle regular exercise, & minimal chiropractic / osteopathy are - I speak from personal experience! - best ever cures for back problems but pls ignore if professionals have given you better advice.
Blessings & keep being such a good example ... xx

	1 year ago cordii wrote... Truly amazing gig last night. What a fantastic venue and a wonderful atmosphere. Nicky you're an absolute trooper for playing considering how much pain you're in and you looked fantastic in your suit, ignore the Tom Jones jibes! Thank you, thank you, thank you x

I took a friend who had never seen you live before and by William's Last Words she was choking back tears too. An epic night - I'll see you again on Saturday and I can't wait!!!
