Manchester rockers James is currently on their The Living In Extraordinary Times Tour, which follows an extensive touring season for the veteran rock outfit. The band have been on the road for the past few months, concluding a sold out UK theatre tour in May before playing at festivals across the UK and Europe over the summer, including headline slots at Latitude and Rock in Rio Lisbon.

Venturing further afield in November, they played dates across Australia, New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates and South Africa, before uniting with fellow British artists The Charlatans on a four-date UK arena tour in early December.

Now in support of Living In Extraordinary Times, which reached No. 6 on the UK album chart, James is winding down their March tour. In their typically non-conventional style, James have been “supporting themselves” in a special thirty-minute acoustic set before their electric main show. Singer Tim Booth explains:

“For this smaller venue March tour we intend to split the gig up into a 30-ish minute ‘pin drop’, bars closed, acoustic set, followed by an electric set after the interval.”

So what can you expect from the tour so far? Don't worry, we got the answers!

The Setlist:

The set is comprised of 23 tracks, broken up into both an acoustic and electronic setlist. The setlist does vary per show, however many of the same songs are played and are shuffled around depending on the concert.

The Encore:

James generally does an encore that features one to two songs. The most recent show included the track "Many Faces."

The Opener:

The British rockers open for themselves with a 30-minute acoustic set. Who needs outside support when you got more than enough music to go around!

Surprise Guests:

No guest performers yet.

The tour has been extended to Portugal, with dates at Coliseu do Porto on April 3 and Lisbon’s Coliseu dos Recreios on April 4. Tickets are on sale now, links on the live page!
