"...at least i'd know i was right, and i'd be laughing at the end of the world." I think that if judgement day started the night i saw 'White Lies' i'd be pretty happy knowing that my last memory would be of one of the best gigs i've been to. As the band took to the stage wearing their usual black outfit, with Harry upsetting the balance wearing a white shirt, the atmosphere was electric. The thumping beat of 'A Place To Hide' kicked off the gig, to a more than excited crowd of all ages which included Simon Rix from 'Kaiser Chiefs'. And from that moment the band took us into their world of lost love, death and all round misery, with their story-telling songs and catchy guitar riffs. Playing through their entire album as well as a B-side and a yet untitled new song, the band ended on my favourite song 'Death'. As the drums kicked in for this final song the crowd errupted into cheers, jumping along to the beat and thrusting their arms into the air for emphasis, of which i was included. And as the song ended and the band walked off stage, me and my friend agreed that there was only one word to sum up the gig, EPIC!
