The sound techies were on form, for sure, and the instrument swap-overs were very smooth, with very very little time between songs, unless they were interacting with the crowd.

Sound: We arrived late and only caught 1 song from the support act, but from this we gathered they were quite poor! There was a cheer when they finished! Feeder came on in amazing form. Guitars were all perfectly leveled with the bass and drums, and the vocals were perfect too. This was a proper album quality gig.

Perfomance: I was standing (as per usual! ), and as far as the Manchester Apollo goes, it was packed with fans. As soon as Feeder came on, the crowd went mad, and the seated people, rose to their feet, and stayed their for the whole act. Set list (I got their set list which the roadies handed out):
01. Feeling A Moment - great opener, played flawlessly.
02. Comfort In Sound
03. Pushing The Senses
04. Tender
05. Turn
06. Just The Way I'm Feeling
07. Tumble And Fall
08. Frequency
09. Bitter Glass
10. Pilgrim Soul
11. Come Back Around
12. Descend
13. Rewind
14. Insomnia
15. Buck Rogers
16. Dove Grey Sands
17. High
18. Forget About Tomorrow
19. Just A Day - played the bass notes for 1 bar alone, and the whole crowd were going "do do dodo, do do dodo" which was emmense! The playing of the song was amazing too!
I won't leave a comment on each song, because they were all played and performed extremely well. The only really weird part of the show was when a bunch of 3 girls came over and started groaping me and trying to undress me. The visual effects were fantastic, there were cameras and a projector projecting the band onto a massive screen on the back. The lighting was great too. // 10
Impression: Manchester Apollo, 26th March 2005. Tickets cost £17, which in my opinion was a bargain for this standard of show. The overall feel to the gig was great, and the band put on a very good act. Seeing the security guys infront of the stage actually do something was quite a surprise, they jumped in and grabbed 2 guys out in headlocks which was quite novel! The visual effects were great, the sound quality was amazing, and overall, the gig rocked! I will definatly be going to see Feeder again! // 10
