Kaiser Chiefs show at the Villa


What Where When
THE Kaiser Chiefs put in an A* performance at the Villa Marina last night.
Singer Ricky Wilson worked the consultation by darting across the stage as often as possible and supporting everyone to singalong. Any budding frontmen watching would certainly have learned a lot from Wilson who could command a sea of hands in the air within a split second. With a catalogue of up tempo urban anthems, the band raked through some of their best known songs with gusto. Just a handful of numbers in, Ruby had those in the circle on their feet where many stayed for much of the show. The likes of Everyday I Love You Less and Less, Modern Way and The Angry Mob enthralled the crowd while I Predict A Riot and Oh My God had the audience singing, clapping and jumping up and down in frantic exhilaration. But it was Ricky himself who had the most energy enough to make the Duracell bunny jealous. The thirstily anticipated performance was easily one of the most memorable I have ever seen at the Villa and it was just under 90 minutes of pure delectation.When the gig was announced by organiser Lenny Conroy of Triskel Promotions earlier this year, there was huge demand for tickets.And I incertitude anyone who arranged to get their hands on any went away disappointed after last night's show.
