That or pancakes.

Almost nine years after it was released, tonight is the night.... Black Gold live....

Don't go changing now...

[Hutchmaster]

One listen in and I love it. Caught me first time round unlike WWD, which I did grow to like. 

 

Standouts for me are In Degrees, White Onion and Sunday.

[TKOCF]

Anyone know what the set times are tonight ?

Earth aren't telling anyone cos they are c****. Was 8.30-10.15 the first two gigs.

New albums great, lots more stood out on first play compared to WWD. Nothing really screamed Headliner material there but I'm still gunning for them to do it at some point so we don't have another tedious Killers argument. 

Syrup was the standout track for me.

Bring on part 2.

I feel like there werent any filler songs on it, like there was with WWD. Liked every song first listen this album. 

Think the headline bangers come from pt 2

White Onions, Sunday, Cafe D Athens are my standouts. In Degrees might grow on me.

That said White Onions would be much better without the Whoooas, let that fat riff do the work!

For anyone still interested, they're on at 20:30

[TKOCF]

All connecting trains from Highbury delayed, getting a bus means I’ll probably miss the first few songs

[TomViolence]

Black. Gold. 

[TomViolence]

PS. Sunday was fucking euphoric.

what time did you make it there in the end? 

[thrillhouse188]

That was absolutely savage, finally saw Black Gold at the 4th time of asking!

Got to H&I, saw the train situation and got an Uber. Think it was the right call!

Back home, sweat washed off. Great night and BLACK GOLD is finally ticked off.

[Muffinmaiden]

Such a great gig, I’m now a fan! 

[aidenlangan95]

I’ve been to 192 gigs (or festivals) in the last decade. That may have been the best one of the lot.

[brendan84]

Fantastic gig, great band. Should sack off killers bore fest and let these lads headline the main stage

Made it for the last bit of Mountain at my Gates, got in the pit for My Number.

Fantastic gig, made even better by the fact that I met Edd O’ Brian from Radiohead afterwards.

I think that's a really, really tough thing to truly pin down, there are so many variables to take into account. Last night was excellent, but think I've had greater Foals gigs over the last 11 years. The Royal Albert Hall gig definitely up near the top of Foals.

Oh I just meant gigs in general! Only my 7th time seeing Foals. And it’s totally a personal thing, so I can understand if people would disagree with me! 

Nonetheless, the show was incredible!

Ah good, didn't miss much then! 

Sweet way to end it... whereabouts did you meet him? 

[Mezhyp1]

Cafe D'Athens. 

[y0ungtitan]

That was stupidly good. Probably only second to Radiohead in 2017 as my favourite gig of all time.

Album's good too. White Onions definitely should've been the lead single over Exits imo

[The Martini Police]

Fantastic gig last night, they’re in top form already. Quickly regretted getting a beer before Inhaler though, that didn’t go well.
