Fingers crossed the Cambridge gig will be good, but to be honest I'd be shocked if it wasn't from the little I've seen of them.
Dunno if we'll stay for Mossiman whatever they're called tho ?!

Tall bloke who waved his arm about quite abit and a mad bass player, but to be honest I don't know who they was, but was from this tour. yeah I'm sure when it was all planned the Monkeys 3rd on the bill fit, but not now! ... and I'd feel sorry for anyone who followed them as I have visions of the place emptying once the Monkeys finish.
We'll hang about I reckon, but if it's that mad bass player jumping about and his mate waving his arm about, I can see us leaving ...lol

Re: Arctic Monkeys
Well the gig at Cambridge tonight was tops!
No Mardy Bum and no Ritz to the Rubble ...
... they did both at Sheffield, but we WAS told they did a few more than the rest of the tour will get cos it was the warm up and after all Sheffield.
Flying Saucers (or whatever they was called) was a bit crap, We Are Scientists wasn't that bad, and we left half way through Maximo park. As you said they ARE a bit of an anti climax after the Monkeys, wasn't right that running order, no way!
Anyway, 10 mins before they came on we was about 10' from the stage and once they hit the first note of the guitar it was all over! ...lol. I'm really not as young as I used to be and after 2 tracks I had a stitch and had to retreat for a bit. I left my nephew to keep and eye on my daughter who after all is only 15, but he's a good reliable bloke ...
Had me breather and worked my way back into the pit and done myself some more damage for tomorrow, I am soooo gonna regret it ...lol, but ahhhh, it WAS worth it! ...
Too much jumping about to get many pictures, but I always try:

Re: Arctic Monkeys
Lol, you did well to take any pictures at all! I was gutted they didn't do Mardy Bum at Birmingham either - that's such an ace song.
We didn't see Mystery Jets so I've no idea what they're like - We Are Scientists have got their own tour and I think it's sold out! Yeah Maximo Park should defo play before the Monkeys - I imagine they must feel a bit uncomfortable playing after them, bit embarrassing when people leave!
Lol the pit can be a bit of a crusher at these gigs - our two mates who are usually right up the front refused to go this time, they stayed just in front of the sound desks - said now they're in their late 30's they're too old
Glad you had a good night - best get yourself a radox bath and soothe those aching muscles

Re: Arctic Monkeys
Nice job with the pictures there mate...I would love to of been in that pit moshing away with the kids. 
I tried picking up the album this week but it had sold out in all 3 record shops I tried in the CBD..Mind you they only had a few copies each they reckon..I will get it this weekend.
What are they like live> I have heard some live stuff off the interweb but what was the show like and how long a set did they play?
