and mystery jets as well and they are the only ones ive not seen live out of the whole line up.

we did have to queue up for 3 hours to get our tickets but it should be worth it.

Arctic Monkeys or Arcade Fire hard choice.
Suppose Arcade Fire cos thye have released an album this year...but I have just voted for Arctic Monkeys cos it was my gut instict.
Oh well, got a feeling Arctic Monkeys will be around longer than Arcade Fire.

I'm late on the Arctic Monkeys bandwagon, but I really like what I've heard.

A mate of mine went and her words when she came back were something like "they're just too good a band to remain small - that will be the one and only time I'll be able to go to a small gig with them there, they'll pack stadiums."
