Vaccines were pretty good, singers got a great voice. Everything Everything I thought were amazing, proper noodly bloke music, and matching grey boiler suits?! Magnetic Man were even better than at the concorde last year, fantastic, you could see the fear on a few of the foppish indie kids! Crystal Castles, I can take or leave to be honest, if I want a mad woman shouting at me I just go home.

I could not put this better myself.
A few other observations: The Vaccines guitarist in the white jeans clearly has been watching Clash videos, specifically Mick Jones image and stance. No bad thing IMHO. They certainly know how to write and construct a song...and try a few different things out.
Everything Everything divide people. I really like them, great vocalist and rhythms. My only previous complaint was once seeing the singer in pleated trousers. This was resolved (to the extreme) with the use of boiler suits.
Magnetic Man's stage set-up is not too dissimilar to what my office looks like.

Ha ha, I thought exactly the same about the Vaccines guitarist and Mick Jones. Think most of the audience would have been too young to have noticed. He was far too camp though, and he's minced about rather more than Jones.

Absolutely f***ing brilliant, blew my little socks off. Vaccines were worthy only guitar band on the bill, Everything Everything were ok but Magnetic Man and Crystal Castles nearly blew the roof off, the ruckus down the front was definitely the best time I've ever had at the Dome. Although seeing the love of my life on crutches was difficult. I LOVE YOU ALICE

Agree, I remember looking around during Magnetic Man and everyone was going nuts...balcony, rear of the stall, in the seats at the back of stall, everywhere. I've never seen it so crazy before.

I wish, so much. Gig would have been right up your street last night, Woz.
'Tis a great track. Was listening to it on the way in this morning.
I'm waaaaaaay too old for NME gigs.
