To anyone who has seen the show so far, what time does it finish? I am going to see them in Cardiff, but the last train back home is at 23:30, so am wondering if I need to book a hotel.

I read on Facebook, Erasure come on stage around 9pm and leave 11pm.

Thank you, I suppose a hotel would be the safer option then.

My first show last night,a great time,it seems like New Horizons,Fly Away & Fallen Angel were cut. Also not the full stage set,no swings or roundabout.

Shame about the lack of a full stage set. I wonder why? Smaller stage?
I did hear that with New Horizons, people were either chatting, using the time to nip out for loo or similar, so maybe he band though it wise to have a shorter set.

The smaller stage set is because of the smaller stage at the Apollo.
The lucky people who went to the first gig got lucky with the full set played but the show overran and got the band into trouble with venue curfew etc.

Ah, yes, the dreaded 11pm legal cut-off!

I think the poorest stage set so far was Edinburgh, it looked a bit sad, but the crowd didn't seem to mind.

When I saw the first set list had 25 songs on it I did think that was a little ambitious, so I wasn't surprised they dropped a couple of songs.
