    Everyone that went to that gig should be proud of the energy that we collectively created in the Olympia tonight. What an amazing performance by the band. Not a bum note or song in sight. My only complaint is that it didn't go on for another hour! Some serious buzz was had tonight!

    Speechless..possibly due to squealing and singing but mainly because it was so effing brilliant! The energy was unreal...my god we can make noise when we want to!
    My QOTSA cherry is well and truly popped:D

    That was probably the best gig I've seen in the last five years
    Way better than the ambassador gig!

    Hearing is still ****ed!!

    Glad I'm not the only one deaf this morning! Great gig though, delighted they played I Never Came too, one of my favourite tracks. Josh seemed awesome too, wish they'd played for another hour. Only complaint was the fact that being in the 2nd row of the circle meant I "coudln't" stand up which was unusual, security seemed very keen on us remaining seated. Apart from that great gig, great set and a great buzz after.

    YOUR GOING TO HAVE TO SPEAK UP I'M SLIGHTLY DEAF AFTER THAT !

    Tremendous atmosphere, tremendous life from the crowd and the band really fed off that. Have to say it's the best gig I was ever at .. The Olympia is some wee venue.

    :eek: So jealous that you got to meet them. How long after the gig did they come out?

    Such a pity your face is cut out of the picture! I am so jealous of you right now! I would have died and went to heaven!

    Does anyone know if they were out on the town last night?

    One of the most perfect gigs I have ever seen, In my top 5 ever!

    Queens were Flawless and I've never seen a crowd so into a gig in a small venue before. I've moaned a lot about crowds in this venue talking through songs and being unresponsive but this was the ultimate antidote to that. Well done to the band and everyone there - We're great! :D;)

    they came out about ten minutes after..

    The lense i was using is not meant for shots that close, my fiancé was standing about six feet away and thats all she got in.. The worst part is that Mikey was standing on my left!

    Going to gigs for 30 years now and the only one that ever came close to last night was Pixies at Brixton Academy in 1991. Thought I was elevating towards the end of You Can't Quit Me Baby. Absolutely amazing !

    The sound wasnt the best in fairness. Couldnt understand a word out of josh's mouth half the time. The crowed however was mostly brilliant. We all rocked out hard except that one stupid cow who full on falcon punched me in the stomach because appatently i hit off her - get out of the pit ye feckin dzope!

    Great gig

    Did anyone else bump into those Italian guys trying to sneak in? They flew over for the gig without a ticket, were trying to get in just to give Josh their demo CD
