Rome, 24th February

The Leicester lads came back to Italy, after a successful gig in November, playing two sold-out dates, eagerly awaited by their Italian fans.

Here people are dressed like perfect festival-goers, wellies and rainproof, weather is changeable and rain is forecasted in the afternoon.

By aaamusic on Jun 14, 2011 in Live

Sheffield, 4th June

Kasabian are back. They were very impatient, especially the lead singer Tom Meighan, who couldn’t wait to give himself to his audience, that was waiting for them deliriously.

The O2 Academy was sold out and he joked about the fact that all his band mates had babies except him, so he was getting bored and looked forward to go on the road again.

The gig started after the opening from Modern faces, a good young band that sounds too similar [...]
