Enjoying Gabriels too... and he's rocking a kilt. 

Glastonbury is about the only time of the year I pick up on new music. 

[Dull Tools]

Has anyone seen them at a stadium show this summer ?

Went to the Emirates. Was good apart from the fact they fucked the tickets. The whole lower tier and pitch was unreserved. So the whole pitch was absolutely rammed.

[ABZ Rover]

Arctic Monkeys are just a very shit Killers tribute act.

[WhereAngelsPlay]

I think the quality of their music carries them but their live shows are bordering on boring

I disagree, think they almost always put on a great show.

Yeah he's great.

Oh fuck.

I did find it mad that were headlining stadiums but after seeing this, I can why.

That’s a bit random. Do find his crooning over the last few years a bit jarring but they’ve never really sounded like the Killers have they?

But it’s good that they have switched their sound up rather than churning out the same old sound.

That Tranquility album is amazing.

And never sounded like The Killers.

Yh I've had some great times at their gigs. It's just the recent ones that are lacking. Their 2013 show at glastonbury was great.

[wz4jc3]

I don't know what the Arctic Monkeys are doing to be honest. It's like a Fast Show Jazz Club version of what they used to be.

I now understand why there were so many tickets going on sale on Twickets last week.

I love the way that they've evolved.

That comes across as a bit ignorant

In what respect ?

That crowd looks awful - giving me anxiety seeing how busy it is

[Elmo!]

I'm not a huge fan of either but comparing the Arctic Monkeys to The Killers seems bizarre - have the AMs changed that much? You can tell I really pay attention.

[Musketeer Gripweed]

I don't listen to them, like ever, but I am enjoying Arctic Monkeys. Not my cup of tea normally, but there you go.

[BobPaisley3]

Jamie Cook has turned into Steve McManaman.

Yep saw them at Old Trafford. The set list is a bit an over the place which is why it’s getting mixed reaction. No songs off the first album…yet.

[Dull Tools]

Amazing that he is doing this after having larangytis in the week.

[Nick110581]

Set list here ? Or on the tour ?

[BobPaisley3]

It’s very similar, my mate saw them at Arsenal last week. I just text him that question.

[keano7]

Here. Sculptures of Anything Goes is a really poor opener. It didn’t work at the start of the encore at the stadium gig either.

[Dull Tools]

They had played a couple of first album tunes by now at the Emirates.

I’ve never really liked them but watching tonight that was the first thing that came to mind 😀. As for sounding like the Killers, agree they are not a patch on them!

Thank god for the Foo’s earlier.

I normally love the Foo Fighters but thought the sound was sht for them earlier.

Arctic Monkeys debut came out in 2002 if you want to feel old.

2006

[Nick110581]

2006

That makes me feel better.

They formed then.

[Bcnsean]

2006

Yep that's the right one

[Nick110581]

The issue with them is their debut is so different to their latest record.

A lot of people just want the hits from that.

[BobPaisley3]

That makes me feel better.

They formed then.

They’ve still not written a better tune than ‘red light indicates doors are secure.’

[Ray K]

It's boring as fuck lads, be honest here. It's not 2am in Ronnie Scott's here, put a bit of fucking oomph into it Alex. Matt's doing his best but by god it's low energy stuff.

[Crosby Nick]

Watching on a bit of delay. Liking most of it (pretty tight band and Helders is a bit of a beast). I know they can’t just sing songs about going out when you’re about 18 anymore, but that was a great day-boo.

[BobPaisley3]

He’s never got over his Scott Walker obsession.

[Musketeer Gripweed]

Lead singer seems to be going full Mike Patton. Guess that's not his normal style?

[eddiedingle]

Turner is a prized pillock with a stupid fake accent

[Crosby Nick]

Anyway, what time do the polarising opinions on GnR kick off tomorrow?

I think it’s great.

I am just amazed that they a stadium band in all honesty.

[Shepnois]

A late night festival crowd doesn’t want to be crooned at, give them what they want!
