Just back from Arctic Monkeys and....yeeeeah my prediction that seeing them so soon after Muse would put them at a disadvantage turned out to be correct 😂

I will say though that the songs from TBHC and The Car sounded soooo fucking good that I'm honestly offended there weren't more of them in the setlist. I need them to do a theatre tour one day where they play both albums in full...

#not even a slight against Arctic Monkeys btw - it's just that Muse are *so* fucking good live that everyone else looks worse in comparison #if I'd had time to forget that i might have enjoyed tonight more #but honestly the bits that weren't as good wasn't even their fault; we were just stuck in a section that had rubbish sound for the 1st half #I could barely hear Alex at all and the crowd was so packed in that I couldn't see anything either #as soon as we moved back the sound got soooo much better and we could actually appreciate the lovely staging #thankfully we were at the back for all The Car songs and they sounded fucking amazing #just wish we'd moved earlier as I barely got to enjoy Ritz and Fluorescent Adolescent #honestly it's been a busy weekend and I'm 90% sure I'm getting sick as a result so tiredness and burnout definitely impacted my enjoyment #hence why two massive gigs in one weekend are a bad idea 😅#honestly I don't think I'd see Arctic Monkeys again in that setting - I just wasn't feeling it tonight as much as i wanted to #but I'd see them again in a heartbeat in a smaller venue #anyway I'm off to bed 😂#also the setlist was a bit meh for me but they were forgiven for that as soon as Sculptures started #Arctic Monkeys
