Notes:
- The Coverups show
- A snippet of HOT TO GO! by Chappell Roan was played after Where Eagles Dare
- Hermione: "The show was so much fun omg! My brother and I got one back from barrier with great view between Billie and Jason! Just a 'regular' setlist I think but it was great, danced the whole time and it was just awesome watching them play up close. I loved the laid back/low key vibe, totally different to GD. Hot To Go thing was hilarious. Also when Jason restarted Last Nite. Jason totally rocked! And it was cool how Billie kept doing little changes/experiments when playing, my brother noticed Chris and Bill being amused by some of them lol. Billie read a sign someone was holding saying they can play guitar on Bowie and said 'sorry we already played Bowie' and then one second later played All the Young Dudes (not technically Bowie but damn lol. Also it was sweet how he dedicated the last song to the California wild fire victims."
- Rumpelstiltskin: "It was my first time seeing the Cover Ups (had a ticket for last year but wasn't well enough to go and gave my ticket to a friend) I didn't want it to end and could have danced all night. I'm so happy I was able to make it through the show after the last few years of barely being able to walk. The guys sounded so good and gave it their all including Chris who Billie said had been drinking since 6 am. Absolutely loved Suffragette City, American Girl, Should I stay or should I go, Message of Love, Million Miles away and of course Love is for losers - honestly everything. One of security kindly gave me Jason's setlist. Saw loads of people I hadn't seen in years and I hadn't rocked out so hard since I don't remember when. All in all amazing evening."
- Maria: "That was the best show of all the London ones so far!!! Everything sounded amazing, even Drain You which I despise. My feet were killing me but of course it didn't stop me 'going feral' (someone else's description) to Love is for Losers. Billie didn't 'forget' the lyrics this time. Most of all I'm so happy that I finally got to dance and sing all night with my mum after she had to leave the Wembley show. There was a lovely atmosphere queuing with old and new friends. Random people grabbed our hands and waved along. I'm SO glad I went."
