Roger Taylor just played the tambourine and looked (to be honest) a little embarrassed. I'd expect more tomorrow.

Guess they're really enjoying bringing out the old songs. I hope they do that in the US *crosses fingers*

They delivered big. 2+ hr set. Highlights included another smokin' version of Stacked, appearance of Brian May + Roger Taylor (did 39 w/ afoostic crew on a mini stage at mid field), popped off Wattershed, FATC and Weenie Beenie in a row during the encore. Just curious though, why did the entire stadium look like a bunch of deer in the headlights when they broke out WB? Guess it's a little different here than back home...not that it matters.

Cool i can live with that setlist. I bet nobody had a clue what '39 was though.

And yeah most of the crowd wouldn't have known the s/t stuff, in the UK we have alot of fairwather fans who only know the last two records at a stretch, hence why they will all go mad with All My Life and Best Of You.

Because half the audience have never heard the first album, let alone live. I thought it felt a little corporate in places around me...I couldn't believe the numbers of people who missed Serj's set. He was excellent.

Brilliant night. Brilliant crowd (at least where I was to the right of the main stage near the front and just on the edge of the standing area).
Got it all again tomorrow!

Thought the concert was brilliant-ten times better than the cardiff one the other day and hyde park. They played weenie beenie, wattershed, for all the cows and this is a call!! The encore was 5 songs long which is a rarity.

Only negative were the so called "fans" who just stood silence when songs from the self-titled were belted out and some songs from the new album-yet when all my life and best of you came out they went nuts.

On the whole brilliant, just want Learn to Fly to be removed from the setlist for the time being. Although a good song dont get me wrong, but its a waste of space and getting abit dull considering there are better songs they can play.

This is a call was in there somewhere. I'd love them to find space to play Low and Everlong properly.
