    Did anyone get to this on Saturday?. Both bands on top form but Suede were the winners on the day for me. Brilliant night.

    I was there. Great performances by both bands, and as a long time manics fan even I have to admit Suede's set had a bit more to it. Maybe helps being the closer in these co-headline slots.

    Bloody hell though, Millennium Square is an awful place to hold gigs. Never going there again, no matter how much I want to see a band.

    I was there too and agree with all of this.

    toilets were a disaster , I guess rain didn’t help.

    I went to the back to basics thing there a few years ago and thought just going to Wetherspoons would have been a better idea, as it looks down over the gig…..

    I was I’d done that for the manics too!

    I thought both were good but Suede managed to lift the crowd a bit more

    what toilets? We got there quite early and were therefore wedged in front of the stage for 8 hours :)

    There were definitely some portaloos there as I braved them. In hindsight @Chef Tyke is right, the sea was a much better bet.
