Sleaford Mods No War No Death tour

Orbital DJ Set

The support act today was Orbital doing a DJ set. The first thing that stood out was Paul was on the left, this was probably because he did have a bank of synthesisers to play with. The set was scattered with some Orbital tracks, some tracks that Orbital had remixed and some really dark tracks that I imagine Paul played during his Folk Horror set.

Dirty Rat

In the middle of the set they played Dirty Rat. Jason and Andrew, from Sleaford Mods came on. Andrew danced around the stage with Paul and Phil, while Jason did a live vocal of the track. Yo my knowledge this is the first time that this collaboration has happened.

Sleaford Mods

Just before the gig started there was a quick sound check, Andrew came on stage and waved at the crowd. He looked very happy to be there.

The set was superb, 25 tracks in total and a mix of old tracks and tracks from Demise of planet X.

Special Guests

The new album Demise of Planet X, has many collaborations and guest vocalists. A number of them were there in person:

• Gwendoline Christie
• Liam Bailey
• Sue Tompkins
• Snowy

Tweet tweet tweet

The last track of the set was Tweet tweet tweet, Gwendoline came out and started dancing, she had the biggest smile. With a little encouragement from Andrew all the rest of the special guests, who were still there (Liam had gone) came out and joined it.

Once the gig had finished Orbital’s Paul came out and they are took a bow to huge applause and cheers.
