Everything Live is a concert film of the Welsh alternative rock band Manic Street Preachers' performance at the NYNEX Arena, Manchester, England on 24 May 1997. Along with the 1996 album Everything Must Go, it captures the band's comeback following the disappearance of their rhythm guitarist and lyricist Richey Edwards and their transition to being a major band. On the tenth anniversary edition of Everything Must Go, bassist Nicky Wire cites the concert as the moment he knew that the band had "made it".[1][2]
