42 year old me is going to see the Manics play “The Holy Bible” in full. 22 year old me is probably just sulking in his bedroom about it.

Sorted tickets to see the Manics play The Holy Bible in full, so happy I could poo (but I won't).

Others, however, have expressed reservations about attending the show without Richey Edwards, who went missing in 1995 and was declared presumed dead in 2007. The album was written while Edwards was suffering with severe depression and anorexia, the lyrics are largely detailing his personal struggles.
Manics doing The Holy Bible live? No thanks, that's Richey's album - leave it alone.

Is The Holy Bible tour a ploy to get Richey so mad he'll show himself? #manics

Oh well. I shall console myself with the fact that it's not The Holy Bible without Richey. (It's not much, I'm fuming with myself)

It'll be rubbish without Richey anyway...
