Maybe that's old news, but I just noticed (and nobody mentioned it in here): "PJ Harvey with special guest Anacostia's Union Temple Baptist Church Choir".

That's nice to hear! it's the choir from "The Community of Hope" video. When it was released it really seemed like Seamus (and Polly too, I guess) took advantage of them... at least that's how the pastor portrayed it in the Washington Post back then.

Polly's performance at the Sziget festival in Budapest is scheduled for Friday 11 August. I suggest you make this date specific in the list.

Polly's playing at the Pitchfork Festival from 7:25 to 8:25 PM Chicago time tomorrow/today (well, on Saturday) and it's probably going to be streamed live on their YouTube channel.

"See the full streaming schedule (all times EST)"

Already checked it earlier today, and I'm afraid it's not going to be streamed on their YouTube channel.

It's a pity, since they added "Dear Darkness" to the setlist:

Of the first few videos posted, I was happy to see that Dear Darkness and enjoyed it.

Not crazy about the way she enunciates here words in 'DBTW' these days. And just the general version being played for this tour, I"m not crazy about. So I skip or skim thru this one.

I thought that at Brixton in the Autumn. When you reminded me of it I wondered whether the melodrama and transatlantic vocalising of TBYML doesn't fit the way PJ sings, and views her work, now, but then the current performances of 'TBYML' itself are as melodramatic as ever, and the vocal isn't very different. So it's an odd decision (it seems to me).

My guess is that because her vocal style changes for most albums, there may be a particular way she enunciates letters or vowels differently at times too as a part of that vocal adaptive process. Which maybe in turn can't help but impact the way she sings the older songs too. Not just pitch or volume, but the actual pronunciation of words. And it sounds weird or obviously different to us because we are used to hearing certain words from those songs being vocalized in a different way.

I had a similar recollection back in the Stories live-era, a couple times when she had performed Angeline. There too were a couple words which were pronounced differently and struck me as odd-sounding because that wasn't the way she sang them on the album nor during that albums live performances. I doubt these are conscious decisions on her part, just the influence of newer songs and their different word pronunciations bleeding over into the older material.

A couple reviews of the Pitchfork Festival performance (tl;dr: somewhat mixed, not wildly enthusiastic):
