Who’s here for Bloc Party?

[Nduja]

Must have been in a dead spot sound wise as I thought they were pretty unconvincing. Would have tried to get a bit closer but I find Indie fans are well less safe about people moving past them during a set than other genres. Not sure whether that is actually true but it's definitely the vibe I get.

I'm not sure what happened with Heilung at West Holts. It was a disaster! No vocals for a few minutes at the start and then ear bleeding bass. We ended up leaving, I'll have to watch it on telly as my parents said it sounded amazing at home haha!

Oh no! Really??

[nikkic]

We absolutely loved it. 

Had hoped they’d have lent a little heavier into Silent Alarm, but that’s just my personal preference.

I thought they were great, Kele seemed in good form and the crowd were loving it where I was. 

[LinvoyPrimus]

Loved every moment.

 

Really pleasantly surprised we got 'I Still Remember' – an all-time track but they'd not played it for a long time until this tour I believe. Ditto Mercury, which absolutely slaps live.

 

Going in I thought we'd get a tonne of Silent Alarm but in retrospect I'm glad that it was more of a 'greatest hits' job.

I thought they were brilliant. You could tell Kele was really grateful to be there and his and their performance showed that.

I only went because my daughter really wanted to see them – and I thought they were brilliant – a real highlight of the weekend for me – we had a great spot – central leaning against the barrier in middle – crowd was going nuts where we were

 

And I knew way more songs than I thought I would!

Gutted I missed it if only for that and So Here We Are. Neither of which got played the one time I saw them!

Interesting the silent alarm gigs this week aren't silent arm in full. 

 

In fact they don't play three of them. 

 

Basically a normal set with a fair few more Silent Alarm than you'd normally get.
