Overview
- Night two delivered the first full live run-through of the 2005 album since that year, with De La Soul on “Feel Good Inc.” and Bootie Brown on “Dirty Harry.”
- Long-shelved cuts returned, including “All Alone” (first time since 2006), “November Has Come” (since 2010), and a rare live rendition of “Intro,” plus the live debut of “We Are Happy Landfill.”
- The residency opened August 29 with the 2001 debut album performed in a reshuffled order, with Damon Albarn keeping stage talk brief and restarting “19-2000” after an error.
- Gospel and choir features shaped the set, with the London Community Gospel Choir closing on “Demon Days,” and guests including Michelle Ndegwa, Skye Edwards, and Qing Du across the encore.
- Plastic Beach is slated for September 2, and a September 3 “mystery show” is billed without details as rumors swirl of new material, aligning with Albarn and Jamie Hewlett’s teases of a 2025 album.
