Lovely stuff. Any idea how long they were on stage in Belfast, or other recent gigs? Heading out afterwards, deciding whether or not I'll have time to head back to the apartment and have a few drinks!

Was at Belfast on thursday. On stage for around 1hr 45. Crowd went a bit quiet during some of the new stuff but still got loads of the hits. Said they'd be back in November at the Odyssey so I'd assume the o2 as well.

Fantastic gig. Absolutely delighted they played Mr. Writer too. The lads sure do put on a great show, and Kelly is one handsome bastard.

Yea really enjoyed the gig and the band were really on form. Had to leave about 2 songs before the encore. Did they say they would be back in Nov?

kensutz

Nope never said when they will return. What a gig and the new songs came off well especially We Share The Same Sun, Catacomb was awesome live, Indian Summer is a crowd pleaser already. It was my 40th time seeing them, one of the best gigs with all the lads on form. I thought Jamie really fitted in well on drums too.

Kelly said just before Dakota, "we'll see ye again in the Winter" so I'm guessing that ties in with the mention of November in Belfast earlier in the week.

It was a great gig and the new album material sounded epic. Crowd were in fine voice aswell I felt. Atmosphere was excellent. Nice to see them in an intimate venue, Olympia never fails!!

Yea agreed about the crowd , during some songs you couldnt even hear kelly . Have to say the crowd were def better then Slash on monday(still a great gig). Delighted they are def coming back . Yea was cool to see them in a small venue although the Academy gig a few years back was deadly aswell

Great gig. The Olympia is such a fantastic venue, was brilliant seeing them there. My only gripe was I think they played too many new songs. Ten new songs is a bit much - most big acts only do six or seven off a new album. I could've done with three or four less new songs (the one with the girl - 'Take Me' I think it was didn't go down well at all and was not a strong live track), and a few of the classics put in like 'Pick A Part That's New, More Lift In A Tramps Vest', I Wouldn't Believe Your Radio, Hurry Up and Wait'. A good few newer tracks sounded fantastic live though - In A Moment in particular was pretty epic. Indian Summer, Graffiti On A Train, Violins and Been Caught Cheating were highlights for me. Of the older tunes 'Dakota was incredible live at the end - easily the best of the night imo. Loved 'Just Looking, Superman and Traffic too. Surprised they played 'Have A Nice Day' - great song for radio but a tad on the cheesy side. Overall a really good gig.

You do realise that they did this small tour was to road test the album? That's why they played the new album.

This tour was designed solely to test the new album and nothing else. Stereophonics are way too big for the Olympia. They're just playing a handfull of small venues at the moment to sort out what tracks off the new album they intend to use for the arena tour next winter.

This was all detailed when the gig was originally announced!!!

The majority of bands do this with new albums. Good example are the Script, played small gig at the Opera House in Cork in November and played entire new album before trimming out what didn't work and played 3 nights at the O2 last week with only a hand full of tracks off the new #3 album!

Stereophonics will be back to play the O2 next winter and will probably only play 4-5 tracks off the new album!
