Yep they did, we got right up the front in the middle. The support act was decent too, so well worth it to get there early. Sound was perfect.

Out of interest where were you for perfect sound?
Another gig with ropey sound and I might just take out a sound engineer or two! :pac:

At the very front, in front of Paul Banks. No speakers right there. Was really perfect, not exaggerating. Was at Editors last month and was to the side of the stage and while it was excellent, the speakers did affect us, and we said we wouldn't stand in front of them again.

Sunday night was the best gig I've been to in the Olympia. Last time Interpol played there, the sound was a let down for us.
This time you could tell that nobody was leaving disappointed.

Thanks for the heads up!
Unlikely I'll get to that position tho, I'd say it'll be full by the time I get in. Hoping for a good gig tonight. Bad sound really pisses my off tho! Should be safe enough beside the sound engineer!....... Hopefully! :pac:

Mondays gig was superb. There's a lot to be said for knowing what you're going to get from an Interpol gig without any bells and whistles. I thought 'Flight of Fancy' was great live, it inevitably doesn't get the same reaction being a new song but I thought it was a great live track. The light show was terrific as well, which isn't something I thought I'd need to say about an Interpol gig :P

'Take You On A Cruise' was brilliant, just something about the structure of the song that lends itself to being fantastic live.
