The O2 Apollo in Manchester was absolutely packed and there was a great atmosphere. The new songs were all well received and the Beautiful South songs, including Rotterdam, Perfect 10, Let Love Speak Up Itself and Old Red Eyes were all fantastically received and sang along to. The set also included some classic Housemartins including Sheep, Build and the finale of the set, Caravan Of Love.<\/p>\n<p>The current tour is sponsored by the GMB Union. The banner behind the stage \u00a0bore the slogan &#8220;Paul and Jacqui say Britain needs a pay rise&#8221;.
