17,000 makes into the top 10?

Haven't listened to lightning bolt since getting back from Brooklyn.
Gonna give it some time. We got 75% of the record over two nights.
They're clearly very happy to be playing these songs.
When in fuck is Getaway gonna turn up?)

Who would've predicted before the tour that they'd play Pendulum every night and Getaway zero nights?
