First London Report

FUCKIN AWESOME headbang

Just a quick report before I go to bed. The setlist was very similar to the US leg of the tour, I can't remember everything he played but I'm sure someone has made a note of it.

Highlights for me were Bambi, Whole Lotta Love, The Ladder and Empty Room (I nearly wet my pants when he played that!)

I only had cheap seats for tonight so didn't see the soundcheck but I have heard there were about 500 members present. No afershow was announced either, unless it was during the soundcheck, I'm hoping it will be on Saturday.

Sorry its such a short report, but I've got to go to work in 6 hours.

During the concert, it does say that I didn't attend the soundcheck.

He also played All The Critics Love You In London! lol

500 members is a bit unerving but that place is quite big rumours of 10 to 20 rows being sold is about 300 to 500 people. It ìs not surprising.

There are no two ways about it, I am so excited and cant wait to return to London for the Saturday show.

All the critics love you in London!!!

Amazing, 2 days to go!!!

Thanks for this report, I can sleep now.

I was right at the back downstairs and could see perfectly ok. Its a tiny venue so the view is good from any position.

So half the Stalls were full of Premier ticket holders?

Probably a quarter, a third at most.

Just got back from the concert. Absolutely Awesome!!!

By the way, there is an aftershow. I heard it being announced to the music club members during the soundcheck as i went to the toilet.

It is being held at the Mayfair Club. Would have gone but my mate had to go back to Bristol straight after the concert and left me by myself.
