Setlist + Review of Q Hospital Club gig

As mentioned in the photos post, the gig last night was a full band acoustic gig (Zuton Fever had a bit of electric guitar from Paul, but other than that Dave & Paul played acoustic for the entire set). The setlist was:

Zuton Fever
What's Your Problem
Railroad
Put A Little Aside
You'll Never Catch Me Alone
You Will You Won't
Harder & Harder
Dirty Rat
Why Won't You Give Me Your Love?

Zuton Fever was played in the style of the acoustic version they released on the Pressure Point single, but with a small bit of the Zutonkhamuun riff and jam added at the end!

It was great to hear Railroad in full as I don't think they've done it since the Who Killed tours. I guess You'll Never Catch Me Alone must be a new song - unless anyone knows it to be a cover?

The new tunes worked very well in an acoustic format. Notable by their absence were Valerie & Always Right Behind You - maybe 'Always' doesn't work well acoustically, but Valerie certainly does so maybe they fancied a break from their most popular songs for this gig.

The venue was a small TV studio in the basement of the Hospital Club in Covent Garden (it's the place the 'From The Basement' TV show is shot), which held around 2-300 people.

Was anyone else there? What did you think?

Highlights from the gig are due to be broadcast on Q Radio at some point. I'll post on the site when I find out more details about this.
