I saw them in Blackpool a few years back and they were very good. The only disappointment was that they played just as a straight 4 piece band which obviously affected the overall effect of their sound, which relies a lot on strings and horns.
However, I understand on this tour they are playing with a 8 piece backing band, which should be a good thing....
One definite tip for you - Don't dare leave early, because their closing track 'Popplagio' is possibly the greatest set closer I've ever witnessed....

Just got back from it. They were incredible! Possibly the best band I've ever seen live. Gave me goosebumps on several occasions and felt a bit emotional when they played 'Untitled 1' and 'Glosoli'!

I'm glad you enjoyed it.....What did you make of the final track of the night, 'Untitled 8' (Popplagio)?
Personally, I think its one of the most awe-inspiring pieces of music of all time, but, played live and coupled with the lightshow, its truly incredible.
