Yeah, Anneke was the support for the Within Temptation show at Brixton earlier on. Had a lot of friends who went and asked someone to text me when her band finished over there, not that I got any, but was told it was awesome. Though I know I was at the right show, Devin and Anneke for 90mins over Anneke for 30? Yes Please. Immense.

Did have a bit of a brawl going on behind us 2 songs in though. Not sure what was going on there. But the show did have so much life and energy it was awesome. Can live with the technical hitches, surprised after they did Coast twice they didn't consider doing the same with Addicted, but maybe there just wasn't the time.

Didn't really get in to Amplifier, started off ok, then it lost me. Still, kudos to them as you'd have to be brave to support at these shows, you know what the crowd are there for really. Think the Ziltoid video clips did start to grate a few people after a while too, after badgers and mangos would have been funny, I think there was an urge to kill rising after the bunny and gumy bears (maybe that explains the brawl behind us!) and with the techs running round like crazy it was a little concerning at first!

I think somone got into a fight I heard somone talking about it outside. And those vids were meantto be funny but they were annoying :? had a laugh about the bunny one. no one was into amplifer were I was. Everyone was just waiting for devy and just laughing at him showing off.

PIXILLATE.

The encores actually blew my balls off at those shows. Every night had something that was just perfect. I was never the biggest fan of Addicted but that show was some laugh. Jumping around like an idiot on the barrier for the whole thing and just had great craic altogether. And I even got a laugh out of Devin shouting at him not to cry when we were gonna sing Ih-Ah! with him. :lol:

The only Addicted clip I've uploaded so far, poor quality video but sound is quite accurate.

[youtube]P3j7Zw3Q6EI[/youtube]

Out of focus unfortunately and only a 2min clip, but the sound is fairly accurate for the spot. Taken from the back of the venue with my custom beer-bottle tripod. Really annoyed that it went out of focus, if only Dev hadn't gone straight into it from numbered I might have had time to correct it :P .

If someone has better footage it would be great to see :D.

I have a short clip of Numbered from the same spot which is in-focus. Might upload that just for comparison of the sound.

OH FUCK YES PIXILLATE. That made me happy.

Are you talking about the song itself, or doing a certain song(s) from the Addicted show over in general? Save for a little bit of the intro, Addicted (the song) is up now on Youtube now and it seems pretty solid, except for Dev miss-singing a line in the last verse ("I will not know", instead of "I will not choose").

Anyone else agree that the version of "Kingdom" he sang at this show was one of the best he's ever done? I remember singing along and then laughing out loud at how amazing his voice was. My favourite part of the show!

The mix (at least where I was standing) seemed a bit out. Couldn't really make out Anneke's voice from the backing track for at least the starting bit of Addicted. After that, I didn't notice any issues and I suppose it's something that's a lot easier to adjust than coming in late on Coast.

a very good gig, but not the best I've seen from him and the band (Ghost on Sunday was). That's owed to the very bad sound in the beginning (what a shame, just when the overwhelming titletrack started with it's heavenly bumpy riffing..). I expected a bit more from Resolve (the track I was most looking forward to) and the encore was pure fun.

The brawl going on on the upper right-fronted side was quite brutal as someone was bleeding and they hit themselves really hard with their fists, pure aggression. I stood very close behind it. Dunno how something like that can happen at a concert that just wants to carry nothing but pure fun... that made me sad. At first I thought a moshpit emerges.... even Dev and the band looked at it but I'm not sure if they recognized it being a fight. But maybe it'll make it on the Bluray ^^

I saw Devin's show first time, then I saw "Kingdom" with my naked eyes first time. But I agree that Devin's voice was amazing!
"Kingdom" is one of my favorite song, and I am emotionally involved with this song...
Very glad to see his peaceful singing and face!

It was very squashed in the whole venue.

So it's to be expected at a one off gig when you have so many people packed together shoulder to shoulder struggling to see the band. Someone bumps into you by accident and suddenly you have a punch up

And they probably weren't even from England.

I made a good mate there from Romania.

I was down the front right for some of the set and there were a few big guys down there, there were also some people with big egos too from what I noticed. I wouldn't be surprised if it was one of them clashing.
