| Arcade Fire pull out all the stops in LA Arcade Fire played the first of two sold-out shows at Los Angeles' Greek Theatre last night (May 29). The Canadians were in top form, swapping instruments, wailing on symbols and throwing drums and tambourines in the air during their typically energetic set. "It's hard to resist making bad puns like 'Let's burn this fucking place to the ground,'" quipped frontman Win Butler, referring to the massive Griffith Park fire that nearly burnt down the outdoor amphitheatre, leaving it closed until recently. Kicking off their hour-and-a-half set with 'Black Mirror', the 10-piece band ran through several tracks from their most recent album, 'Neon Bible', as well as old favourites from their debut album 'Funeral'. The crowd erupted during Regine Chassagne's emotional delivery of 'Haiti', and shouted the lyrics along with Butler during several tracks including 'Neighborhood #2 (Laika)' and 'Wake Up'. The band closed out the night with an impressive two-song encore. During 'My Body Is A Cage', a ghostlike image of Butler's face was projected onto a cardboard cut-out of the singer at the front of the stage. "I like to call him Win2-D2, but I'm open to suggestions," joked Butler before closing out the night with the rousing 'Wake Up'. They played: 'Black Mirror' 'No Cars Go' 'Haiti' 'Neighborhood #2 (Laika)' 'Neon Bible' 'In The Back Seat' 'Intervention' 'Antichrist TV Blues' 'Ocean Of Noise' 'Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)' 'The Well' 'Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)' 'Rebellion' 'Keep The Car Running' 'My Body Is A Cage' 'Wake Up' Arcade Fire play their second and final show at the Greek Theatre tonight (May 30). |
Daughtry play second ever UK date US superstars Daughtry have confirmed only their second ever UK show at the Scala in London on 27th November 2007. The band last played in the country in June of this year when their Borderline show sold out in a matter of minutes and fans camped out all day for tickets that were changing hands on the internet for ?400. The band, fronted by Chris Daughtry have been touring consistently across the US since the release of their debut album in the US last November and have gone on to sell an incredible 3 million copies and hitting the number one spot (twice!) on the Billboard top 100. It?s still the biggest selling album in the US this year, and new single 'Over You? is one of the most added songs at US radio, currently at no. 25 in the Billboard chart and rising. The album entered the UK charts at No. 13 upon it?s release in August. Having recently visited Singapore and Australia for the first time, Daughtry returned to the US to discover they had been nominated for 3 American Music Awards: Favourite Album (Pop or Rock), Favourite Artist (Adult Contemporary) and Favourite Breakthrough Artist. Daughtry consist of Josh Paul (bass), Joey Barnes (drums), Brian Craddock (guitar), Josh Steely (guitar) and Chris Daughtry (vocals). They recorded their triple platinum album with Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, All American Rejects) which went on to spend over 30 weeks in the Billboard Top Ten on release. The band will release a single 'Home? on 7th January (originally scheduled for late October). |
Lily Allen posts sick note online Lily Allen has cancelled a handful of festival appearances this week because she's sick - and has posted her doctor's note online to prove it. The singer has been advised to rest after suffering from sinusitis and strep throat and has been order to rest, forcing her to pull out of several European dates. She wrote on her blog: "I've have literally been around the whole world in two weeks from London to Japan around Australia and then to LA and Vegas then back to LA for a 17 hour video shoot, and now I'm back in London eating my mum's chicken soup cause I'm afraid the travelling has caught up with me. I've got sinusitis and strep throat (I don't even know what that is) and have been advised to take a couple of weeks off by a doctor in LA and a doctor here." However Allen got in ahead of anyone who might think she is putting it on by posting a photo of her holding her doctors note on the blog too. "Before anyone starts trying to accuse me of neglecting my fans I want to apologise and say how sorry I am, but I cant risk causing any permanent damage," she explained. "I hope people can understand and aren't too angry." The note can bee seen on her Myspace blog. Meanwhile the following shows are off: Way Out West Festival (11), Sweden, Sagres (15), Portugal, and Lowlands Festival (17), Holland. Her appearances at next weekend's V Festival (August 18-19) is current set to go ahead. |
