Anyone have recent set lists for Wire?

I already tried Setlists FM. Doesn't look like they have anything updated.

For the Chicago gig, I understand that they'd played 'Ahead' from Ideal Copy.
Shocked crowds with 'Three Girl Rumba (from Pink Flag)
and 'Red Barked Trees' which is recent

Well at least that's what that slacker Bill says anyway.

The Detroit setlist from Sunday night is up now.

Based upon that, I can't say I have much of a desire to see them again, to be completely honest.

Detroit setlist

My rating: This set is somewhere between a C+ to a B-

pluses: "Ahead" One of their best ever being brought back in to their live set. I love their dancey electronica shit. Great underground 80's hit.
3 Girl Rumba. They haven't played that in 25 years...(from Pink Flag)
Over Theirs (from Ideal Copy) GREAT one.


Ahead
Diamonds In Cups
An Alibi
This Time
Three Girl Rhumba
Art Of Persistence
Brio
Underwater Experiences
Red Barked Trees
Small Black Reptile
Keep Exhaling
Split Your Ends
Playing Harp for the Fishes
Short Elevated Period
Over Theirs

Encore:
Silver/Lead
Used To
Stealth of a Stork

Also got to talk to Peter Prescott briefly at the show. He thought my review was "perceptive!" 8-)

Wire was great as usual. I got the new record on vinyl and Out of the Box CD/DVD combo.

Good times :arrow:
