Rage Factor

yep, i'm travelling 400 miles or whatever from edinburgh without a ticket.

For anyone without a ticket

[Englishdragon]

Just go. We have been assured by the promotors (Festival Republic) that we WILL GET IN if we have the refrence number with us. There's loads of people in the same boat and we're 220 miles away.

Always nice when you can walk home from a gig - the joys of living on the Holloway Road.

Great stuff from Rage tonight. Really got the crowd going. I was behind the second barrier and moshing was breaking out everywhere.

Got the feeling that the band really cared about it. Really crazy to think it was all started by a facebook group; nice touch to get the couple out who started it.

Only shame was that they didn't play Renegades of Funk.

Amusing couple of videos taking the mickey out of X Factor were spot on. Really enjoyed Zach's comment: "They weren't ready for you at Christmas time!"

Killing in the Name the ultimate closing song. Best value gig I've ever been to.

well, what a gig. that is up there in my top 5 best live acts ever.

ended up 3 rows back, bang in the middle. it was incredible. unlucky to those who didnt get tickets, you missed an amazing gig.

2 hours back to thamesmead was a pain in the arse though.

It was epic. Fantastic gig.

[lharris92]

one other thing - i believe they will be releasing a dvd of the gig so yeah look out for when it appears sometime soon

[ap3311]

apparently - rumour has it that people decided to jump over the fence then when security tried to stop them the other side of the arena people jumped over that fence too - was deffo more than 40,000 in there

[Mamba]

That was pretty amazing. I've seen RATM a few times and that was probably the best.

The 4 hour tube/train/taxi home wasn't much fun though. And who shit in my head?

rage were absolutely amazing last night, best i've ever seen them, and one of the best shows i've ever seen. ('wake up' would've sealed the deal). didn't think much of the support bands, i love gallows, but having seen them play tiny venues i don't think they translate well to big stages. although frank's banter always makes me chuckle

i spent roots manuva's set battling a horrendous blood sugar dip, but solved that with a bag of doughnuts, all in all a fantastic day.

top, top gig that

really good to meet a few of you too!!

[lharris92]

Yeah there were. It was utter madness at the front, never seen a crush like it, definitely past the point where it's no longer enjoyable. I managed to fight my way out after Bombtrack. Incredible gig though, they were absolutely on fire all the way through, nailed every song. Shame they weren't on very long though, I thought we'd get a similar length set as the German festivals. No Renegades/Wake Up made me slightly sad. Can't complain though, twas a free gig after all!

Great gig! Really funny seeing those 2 guys on the roof of the bus on Seven Sisters Road surfing it like Teen-Wolf - quality!

[Peetle]

Best gig for a very long time. Top sound for an outdoor show too.

In the end I had four tickets - we had our two with photos and then on Friday two more arrived, without photos but saying "photo id required", apparently due to "printing problems". Another fine result for SeeTickets....

[boffy12]

best gig i ever think i will live to see unless they release more stuff and im lucky enough to see them again

[lharris92]

go to download next saturday and you can see them again!

[pigshair123]

anyone else notice that one of Gogol Bordello's songs sound alot like "down under" by men at work?

[Dr Seuss]

What a gig. Was involved in a great mini-pit near the mixing desk and it was just such as good atmosphere.

Brilliant and I also ended up meeting a friend of mine on the choob home, who I very rarely see.

[paulos316]

Best gig i ever been to in my life Was right at the front an felt the crush 100% my girlfriend even recieved a cracked rib but she still managed to get back out there more..Gogol Bordello were out of this world the highlight of the whole gig for me.. Rage Where incredible loved every second of it !!!!!!
