The guitar solos are what I look forward to most at his shows! He and Taylor Swift are the last acts I saw. Taylor Swift, I must say, was better than I expected her to be. I think if you like her music you wouldn't be disappointed with her in concert.

The last live act I have seen? Well... a bunch actually.

I went to the Hurricane Festival...lots of awesome bands!

My favourites that weekend:

The Whip (for me the best electronic live act there currently is! :D)
Keane (played lots of stuff from "Hopes and Dreams" :D and only a couple from the new album. thank god)
Social Distortion (brilliant as always! although they didnt play my fav song :eek:)
Bosse (german band. i dont even have enough words to describe their awesomeness!)
Tomte (another german band and one of my favourites. played a great set including all the songs i wanted to hear)
The Wombats (one of the bands with the best atmosphere in the audience, really got the germans going! lol)
The Gaslight Anthem (did not think they would be this good live! very solid play of instruments, connected well with the audience)
Brand New (didnt really know them before, but they are great!)
Blood Red Shoes (what can i say? awesome! go see them if you can! its amazing what you can get out of just two instruments and two voices)
Auletta (german band. i like their tunes :))
Franz Ferdinand (we danced till we dropped and sang till we had no voice anymore :D)


I was extremely disappointed by Kings of Leon. I have seldom seen such an arrogant band. If it wasnt for just a couple of songs noone would even know them and i doubt they will be around for very long...

i've heard they'e bad live before, apparently its the lack of stage presence and the fact they dont connect with the audience. but i havent seen them so what do i know :p

the first time i saw them was 4 years ago and even back then they werent very....um...energetic i guess.

to say they dont connect with the audience would be more than an understatement! not only did they not make a connection to the audience, but they even insulted us by calling us "sleepy and slow and not quite awake". maybe it had something to do with their lame songs and this was actually a rock festival so people were expecting to be able to rock :rolleyes:

I've seen them twice as well and was quite underwhelmed both times.

Love, love, love their albums, though!!! Totally a band to enjoy by myself rather than go and see them live...



Last band I saw: Green Day - kick off to their 21st Century Tour. Great as always - I wish I had half that energy that Billy Joe puts forth....
