Re: 2014-10-11 Royal Festival Hall
Loved the minimal production. Keeping it simple with the graphics and focusing on the typography.
Funny that everyone stood up as soon as they came on and were dancing in the isles after a couple tracks! The sound was amazing - was it me or was it loud (my ears are still ringing), maybe I am getting old.
I don't really have any highlights for songs at this point - I thought surfboy and spoon man were rocking and really picked up the atmosphere (which I think has been lacking a bit recently at recent London gigs except for the Forum show maybe).
Karl did not play guitar on dirty epic which was a bit of a surprise.
I go down to the Southbank quite a lot and it was great that from about 7.30/8 the bars were rammed and the music from the auditorium (overture) was being pumped into the foyer (quite loudly). A bit surreal!
I even managed to day hello to Danny Boyle in the bar before the gig and pick up one of the set of artist proofs for the prints :-)
