It was definitely a legendary gig.. the best Arctic Monkeys gig I've seen.. and I've been to a few now. The venue was ace, the band was awesome as usual, the atmosphere was brilliant and the crowd was the loudest, most appreciative crowd I've seen ever :D

 

I was about 1/4 of the way back for alot of the gig with a really good view then fought my way to the barrier for the encore, got completely soaked (just sweat this time!) and squashed but got an amazing view of the band :D

 

Absolutely loved it! Up there in my top 5 gigs ever for sure. :banana:

This may have already been mentioned, but I haven't got time to trawl through all 60 pages of this megathread. What about a Sheff Fest some time in 2008. Ideally this would be headlined by the Arctic Monkeys, supported by the likes of Richard Hawley, Reverand and the Makers, LMT, Milburn, the list could be endless. Don Valley (Stadium or Bowl) could be the venue.

Selling of tickets would never be a problem. Just needs somebody to get their head round the massive potential of this and get the ball rolling.

you should have gone to This Ability at the Boardwalk a couple of years ago, a lot of those bands were playing. Think you can still get the DVD somewhere too.

 

as for a big Sheff Fest, there is already something being planned ;)

As good as This Abilty was, there were only Little Man Tate who went on to some degree of success and are mentioned above. The Monkeys were in the audience but did not play.

 

Tell me more about plans for a 'Sheff Fest'
