We were in middle tier club Wembley seats Friday night to the right of the stage. No queues at the bar, padded seats and everything.. Just perfect when you get to my age!  Cheesy

Yeh, it was packed on every level, as you'd expect. Very different to anything I've been to before. The huge glitter ball is a nice touch too!

Well the 1 day festival in Lux was a hot affair, I now look like a tomato!! We got there at 11.30am just in time to see local act.

Eternal Tango - Wasn't expecting much but was surprised to hear that they were actually quite good and played some decent tunes

Cribs - Very early and low down in the order and I was surprised at how bad they were. First song My Bovine Public was possibly the worst performed song I have seen for some time. They dedicated a song to their brother that died earlier this year which was the highlight. Overall I wouldn't recommend them live.

Culcho Candela - A kind of german hip hop/reggae act. I hate this style of music but have to admit live it was ok, aimed at youngsters more though.

Anti-Flag - Appalling although the locals loved them.

We Are Scientists - Superb, really good live and they are very funny between songs, the boy with the mustdash was hilarious!

Mando Diao - Very good live

The Kooks - Better than I thought, the crowd was really up for it as well. Good performance

The Verve - Played a mix of old and new tracks (which were typical Verve songs). BitterSweet Symphony was a clear highlight in the singalong stakes although Lucky Man runs it close. Good to see a band I used to listen to at school and never got a chance to see earlier in life.

Overall for 43 Euro, About £30 pretty decent value!
