    Was slightly annoyed they didn't do Cassius but loved the show!. Who were the two guys on before cage the elephant?
    I don't think Cassius has really featured in their set lists since 2011!

    Man that was good! I was supposed to see them last year but was refused entry because I forgot my ID. It was well worth the long wait though. Providence and Two Steps Twice were definitely the highlights for me. And I love that they played Hummer.

    Cage The Elephant were brilliant too.

    Yeah, last time I saw them play it was at the Electric Picnic 2010.

    Thoroughly enjoyed last night, the light show was fantastic and the performance as a whole was sensational. Better than the last time I saw them at the academy, the newest album translates really well to a live show imo.

    I went on Tuesday night and they were seriously impressive!

    Seeing as they are headlining Bestival I could see them having a late night slot at EP on the main stage, prob not headlining but maybe second billing. The light show worked perfect in the Olympia.

    Great Night last night. Both Cage the elephant and Foals. Yannis was so good he made NME with his antics: http://www.nme.com/news/foals/75320

    Phantom said they except them to be back in either June or Sept for a festival so would mean either Forbbiden Fruit or Electric Picnic

    great gig. I guess they just dont do Cassius anymore...wonder why? Epic song and huge with the fans - usually some personal reason behind the song or something...anyways...small gripe!

    another small gripe was I would have loved to hear Miami...but yeah, epic gig and great energy in the crowd.

    Great atmosphere, great performance, Yannis was mental :D

    Any song from Antidotes, just wow. Right up at the front it was fair madness.

    Gig of the year so far for me.

    First Time back at the Olympia in a while. Great performance, they are such a solid band. Really defined a music genre when they first came out, the rest then followed
