I went to see Kings of Leon in Swansea. Had a seat right at the back, got spewed on, and managed to move right down the front. No one really seemed to be sitting whee they were meant to by the end though.
Today (very early this morning) got back from the Pearl Jam gig in Leeds. It was most amazing. And they did two of the three songs I was hoping for - Porch and Don't Gimme No Lip. Never been to the Leeds Direct Arena before, it's a vast, vast place, which was packed to the gills. :D
I only got a ticket 'cos my friends brother had one, then he unexpectedly died earlier in the year, so got offered his ticket. The concert was brilliant, looking forward to the inevitable bootleg.
Set list here. Never heard Tremor Christ live before!
There were lots of touts working the concert last night. Some more slick than others. One guy had a handwritten cardboard sign saying he was from the Ten Club selling tickets on the cheap.
Noticed a lot of videos from last night on youtube already. Funniest moment was Eddie goading Jeff into singing a song, he said it's doesn't matter what you'll sing the audience'll finish it off anyway. He suggested Jeff's style was 1970's Swedish pop at which point Eddie started singing ABBA's Fernando, finished off in great form by the crowd. :-)
