t was an ok gig, sound was very good (I thought the bass guitar could have been up a notch) but as has been said I think the seating arrangement killed the atmosphere a little. Second set was a bit pointless really I thought, it was great to hear Russia On Ice but then they go and spoil it by playing another track half-way through the song, before the best bits! Thought it was a bit hypocritical asking the fan if he'd seen them before because if so he'd have already seen them do Blackest Eyes and yet they go and play Sound of Muzak and Trains I like that song but I'm not really sure why it's became such an anthem for them. I think I just have to realise that they're not my band any more, and I accept that, I'll still go to see them of course. It was decent enough, the highlight was the first set simply for the fact that it was something I hadn't seen them do before. I'm not sure they have another 11/05/2001 (Sheps Bush) or 30/11/2003 (Astoria) in them though.

This gig was beyond awesome, ignoring some of the complaints about the sound on the PT forum I thought the sound where i was up on row Z in the middle was brilliant, very well balanced and not too loud for once (didn't need to use my earplugs!). The Incident live in full was stunning and there was a good selection of other stuff afterwards, would have liked all of Russia on Ice but what we got made me happy!! playing the middle section of Anesthetize was a little strange IMHO as it's all about the buildup in that song, that section doesn't have as much impact without it :/ SW looked genutinly pleased with the crowds reaction by teh end of the gig and everyone around me was really into it :) great night and one of the best times I've seen them :D

Was incredible...only problem I had was that I thought the all-seating thing made it all a bit uninvolving, especially during the first half. Performance was out of this world tho

Brilliant show. Tiny bit disappointed they didn't play anything pre-2000, but still brilliant.

Two spare Circle tickets for the Hammersmith Apollo gig this friday, good central position. Row J. No more timewasters, please. Two tickets, £25 each or £50 CASH for the pair. I'll meet you outside the Apollo or at whatever pub I find myself in before I go to the gig. First person back to me by 10.00 on Friday with a mobile number, which I will confirm, gets them.
