    Saw her at oxegen and was entertained. Not really a fan of her music but good crowd interaction etc.. Was an all round good show.

    Saw her at Rock Werchter and didn't think much of it. Other people around me enjoyed it though.

    Yea i seen her at Oxegen , was suprised how good she was but i only seen about 20mins of her because i went to go see the Answer , but she was still decent

    I've only seen some of her Glastonbury set live on BBC - and in fairness the crowd really did seem up for it and she interacts well - but her vocals are shocking and for someone that doesn't really sing as such, I'd expect better.......

    mind you the gig is only €30 so at least it's better value than most......

    I'd pay the money to see her alone, singing or not.

    If you're heading to this gig later, the Luas to/from the O2 begins today from 3pm. Might save you walking!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    With the weather on show today it might be a god send for some.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    That was amazing :eek:

    Went with the girlfriend not expecting much but tunes out she is unreal.

    Fair play to her, she put on a great show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,854 ✭✭✭zuutroy


    Really? I happened to have free tickets and went along and can't say it was great. The best part of the gig was when the MC guy came on to spit a few lyrics! The crowd were totally lifeless too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,759 ✭✭✭gtg60


    She was good, sound was awful at times (not her fault even though she did have a sore throat).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 407 ✭✭AfterDusk


    I loved it. Thought she was fantastic and the keg of Guinness was just genius! :D

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭James Forde

    I did!! He was hard to miss! Not many blokes there, actually as a heterosexual male I felt I was in the minority!

    Hey Lily Allen gig going peeps, what's it like getting the Luas from The O2 after a gig? Do they line up a few trams to get everyone out of there as quickly as possible or is it complete chaos (somehow I think it's the latter)?

    I'm going to two gigs at The O2 in the near and slightly distant future and I live on the red line so it's handy to get the Luas all the way there and back but I don't fancy negotiating the scrum after the gigs.

    3 trams lined up and ready to go afterwards. Luckily, I was one of the last on the first tram as we left just before the end of her last song. So as soon as we were on the tram, the doors closed and we pulled out from the stop.
