My cousin works at the Troub and they performed there last night.

What a show! 33 songs, close to 3 hours! Unbelievable.

The music is great, but I love when Dave was mocking people who use twitter!......he always has such great commentary!

Dave is music's comedian. He's awesome.

Dave talked about Twitter, Justin Bieber (he compared Beiber's acoustic Grammy performance to the acoustic version of Everlong!), and, what rumor we should all start about the next secret show (even though there aren't any more!).

Yeah tour dates on here doesn't seem to include the two MK dates at the moment.

They are 2nd and 3rd July at Milton Keynes Bowl

When I saw Brixton listed I thought I'd missed a London show being announced :shock: ... it's the NME Awards Show ... phew!

Yeah, but still it's sold out. I would love to see them in a venue like that. :x

I haven't been through the whole process but there seem to be tickets here:

http://www.seetickets.com/Event/SHOCKWA ... ton/535992

I would think they would only be playing one song though ... two at the most.

I'm lucky in that I've seen them play a couple of tiny places in London (Camden Underworld, Dingwalls) ... also seen they play HUGE places too (Hyde Park, Wembley Stadium). Any Foo's show is a good Foo's show
