Chris Fix You

I have 3 tickets in block 217 for this show that I can't use now - a pair in row 6 and one in row 1. They were ticketmaster platinum. No mark up on what I paid. Send me a message at [email protected].

1:30 of Fix you Here is a clip I got during the incredible Fix You. The sound's a bit better than some other clips I've seen, thank you Canon Camera! Jonwright and busybeeburns you are great photographers - thank you! Can you get in with a decent camera and telephoto then?

Amazing Gig Was at the NIA gig last night; Fantastic! Spot on with the set list jonwright. Only thing jon is that I didn't think coming back from the upper teir acoustic set counted as encore 1! They played that slightly odd Viva la Vida remix while they ran back. I saw them in Toronto and they truly did do a second encore. It was lights up and everything but people were still going mental for ages, so they came out again and played Don't Panic which Chris said they hadn't rehearsed. Crowd good last night too I thought. Chris said the best volume of all the 3 Birmingham gigs - ha! take that Dec 1 and 2! Speaking of Take That....Chris sang "I want you back" during the encore, creatively segwayed at the end of The Scientist, and carrying on with the same chords. Wow! Chris really showed his talent on the piano last night, he was doing all sorts! They were all great; what skills! Each played at least two different instruments. And the work they were putting in. Will is incredible to watch; honestly the drumming is the highlight of the show for me. They were all dripping with sweat by the end of it. Judging by that and the really good repartee from Chris between the songs, they are really trying to give everyone a great night. No arrogance, nothing taken for granted, and Chris getting a huge noise from the crowd. Chris played The Hardest Part on his own on the little right hand stage, and said it was their "X-Factor" song - for anyone who auditioned and didn't get on (which he said they wouldn't have either). Fix you was awesome, and Lovers in Japan proves a brilliant live song, especially with the rapid changing video and buterfly shower. What a band. Slight gripe? Support bands. Juniors were OK and got people going, but who was this John Hopkins fellow with his weird synth and videos...I would rather have had nothing. It did not go down well! I had heard we might get Duffy!
