    Does anyone know any central ticketmaster locations that will definitely be open for tickets in time for this?

    Even if they add a second gig, do anyone/everyone reckon they will both sell out (in your best educated guesses)?

    A few minutes, probably. It looks like all standing tickets are gone.

    Ive never seen that before, I wonder will they be released closer to the gig to help make the touts job a little bit harder.

    Great sets from both of them and fantastic light show for Foals! They've come such a long way and grown into such a tight band, it's great to see.

    Would I be right in saying that the acoustics aren't quite the best in the Olympia? I was in slap bang in the middle about halfway back but sound seemed a bit thin at times. Vicar St by comparison is almost always perfect.

    If anyone is going tonight, the weather still looks to be terrible so try make some allowance for that so that you don't miss Cage the Elephant!

    Is there any particular reason they didn't play
    Cassius
    or
    Bad Habit
    ? Was looking forward to the former, not pushed about the latter. Bit odd is all.
