As the lights began to dim, an almost deafening roar filled every corner of Earls Court, the band’s largest gig venue to date. After a few moments the huge ‘Kaiser Chiefs’curtain fell to reveal all five members as they opened the show with the boisterous Everything Is Average Nowadays. Ricky Wilson the lead singer commented that the crowd were “much louder than last night’s”, keeping them happy and even louder than before.
It felt as though both of the Chief’s albums were written with live shows in mind as each song sparked a huge sing along, at one point leaving the crowd to sing a whole verse by themselves. As well as singing all the classics like I predict a Riot and Ruby the band played a couple of new songs called Never Miss a Beat and You Want History, showing promisingly that the Kaiser Chiefs have plenty more up their sleeves before they call it a day.
Unfortunately I had to leave before the end of the gig and before they sang their famous closing song Oh My God, but from what I’ve heard from other people it was something special. I hope I get to see them again and stay to the end next time.
