Doves live at the Cardiff City Stadium.
Review by walesonline.co.uk
Doves have no need to worry about their vagaries of success. The Manchester band are assured competitors on the big stage. Their ether-scraping psych-rock is perfect accompaniment as the sun sets over the stadium.
Kingdom Of Rust, There Goes The Fear, Pounding and Caught By The River are songs that swell to a crescendo built on swathes of glistening electric guitar, all sweet surges and soaring choruses.
Setlist with thanks to an optional extra at doves board.

Cherry Ghost
Black
Got allot of emails/comments over the course of the tour about the support group. They were of course Cherry Ghost. I didn’t keep tabs of any of the Cherry Ghost setlists, if you did feel free to send them in. They changed the sets most nights.. Though I believe the tracks most folk were asking about are.. We Sleep on Stones, Kissing Strangers, Black Fang (see video above), Beneath This Burning Shoreline & Mathematics. All but the later are from their new album details here. Mathematics (which features Jimi Goodwin) was their first single which you can find on the debut album Thirst for Romance.
The Delays For Folkestone
As we previously reported Cherry Cherry Ghost will also provide the support for the Thretford Forest gig on June 12th.
Edit: Actually this is not the case! Ticket sites reporting this are doing so in error.
