was pretty good although crowd were awful and quite a few sound problems
Conan and Liam noticed me and Liam came and gave me a plec after a couple of songs which was cool
Venue seemed small which was nice but still think nothing can top Manchester

The set was funny ....Liam forgot the lyrics to Why Do You Do It, was gonna help him out but he'd already given up erm started the usual Aftershow Kimberley but then I get lost Bo Jangles was mid set Did most of the album but not How come?...I think he said he was gonna play that acoustic and then changed his mind He did NYDNYD as the acoustic in the end Didnt do any of the lesser known songs after messing up WDYDI ended with WTYSL? as per usual The crowd weren't dancing they were just pushing and I was in the middle on the barrier right in front of Liam which was silly cause its the worst place to stand, and guys were literally just pushing and shoving, security had a go at one guy cause he was being a knob Then like 100 people crowdsurfed and it ruined some songs cause the bouncers were just stood in front of me, Liam kept smiling at me so I rekon he was feeling my pain haha Also a lot of screaming girls...as in everytime people pushed they screamed  So annoying and they kept shouting to Liam, wouldn't have minded but when they were doing it through every song cause they didnt know the words was a bit of a joke |

i grew up in birmingham, and i dont know what it is but that always happens at gigs at the academy, the crowd is just awful and swells so much. you just find yourself trying to stay standing up rather than enjoying the gig! i remember seeing the strokes there and it was just a warzone.

I have pains where the barrier was, but I usually get on the barrier and im fine
Only gig I have ever got battered was Arctic Monkeys at Manchester Academy but last night was pretty bad
I mean at leeds I was on the barrier for the killers and yet I found last night was weird cause crowd werent having a dance or out just really pushing for no reason

Myself and a few pals attended the Leeds and the Birmingham gig over the weekend. Both were absolutely fantastic. Frankie I don't know what all the fuss is about Saturdays gig, the crowd were just well up for it, which is how it should. Yes, there was the odd nobhead, as always, who decides it'll be a great idea to get lifted up, floated to the front, and toppled over to security, resorting in themselves being rewarded with the odd giggle by their close friends, a beer down, and a crackin new position right at the very back. I give these clever people a pat on the back. Other than that it was yet another great performance, by both band and crowd, roll on Shepherds Bush!!!!

Yeah it was a great performance but I didnt think people were really that up for it..I mean I guess im comparing it to Manchester, but I did prefer the venue as a whole to the apollo cause its much more intimate but I dunno just didnt seem to me like there was the atmosphere I was expecting
