I think PG re-lived a bit of "The Colony of Slipperman" for the "Growing Up Live"-tour - I am talking about the "Arrival"-part of that track. If you listen to "The Barry Williams Show" played live during that tour, you will get to hear those strange noises and sounds played by the band before PG`S introducing words at the beginning of the song, which reminds me of. . ."The ARRIVAL" from "The Lamb". There was also no need for PG to play "Supper`s Ready" for "Growing UP live" with 10 new excellent songs plus the "OvO-material. But I must say I supported this fan-request to do a re-arranged "Carpet Crawlers" with New Blood Orchestra.

I know it's very unlikely that Peter will perform "Carpet Crawlers" with the new blood orchestra for this second part of the tour but i like to think it may happen.

As I recall, PG wanted to perform some songs that had recognized great songwriting, but had not been re-worked ever-Carpet crawlers Had been! He mentioned Suppers Ready, and It in particular. Furthermore, I seem to recall that one D. Rhoads was completely against the idea. I can imagine that this was really very much opposite of his whole modern industrial minimalist vibe he has honed. But what I really think is it was too hard for him. I dont think they'd do the whloe 22 minutes, but how cool?
