Overview

House of Lords appeared at Nottingham's Rock City to play their first UK show since 1989, as the headline act for 2005's Firefest II. James Christian struggled through the pain barrier after a recent accident to play the set, including performing on the guitar, after having fallen off a ladder and broken his wrist only days before. Much of the set was devoted to their debut, with some exceptional musicianship from the likes of Lanny Cordola and Chuck Wright, with other tracks and closing with a Whitesnake cover. Setlist: "Sahara", "Chains of Love", "Love Don't Lie" (Stan Bush cover), "Pleasure Palace", "Talkin' 'Bout Love", "Edge of Your Life", "Mind Trip", "All Is Gone", "The Rapture", "I Wanna Be Loved", "Can't Find My Way Home" (Blind Faith cover), "Slip of the Tongue"
