Well I've never been told off for having a Camera at the Academy, however it's just been rennovated so the rules might have changed. They should also have a cloakroom to boot.

Yay it's tonight! So excited to see them for a 4th time!!! I'll be snapping piccys for u guys!

There were quite a few younger kids their, but I didn't see many parent maybe 10 at least. The average age must have been about 13 I guess, but it was a great gig, besides the band being just amazing and so so awesome live, there was a mixed crowd and different mood their which was good but its sad that the show didn't sell out, as well as most of the other dates on the tour. Finally does anyone know if they will be using the footage from the show, to be releasing a DVD? I saw one big video camera stacked on a tripod at the back of the venue near the merch table, well I presumed it was a video camera and there was a video camera on a tripod next to Stevo's drum kit and there was a person with a hand held video camera down at the barrier.

You Know, the song "Perfection" you linked too is called "My Direction".

I was there!

Not a bad gig but I was dissapointed. If anyone has heard the live album its just the same old shit from their last tour. The elvis thing I hadn't seen before but he has actually done it before.. there were some young kids about 11 near me at the side and I heard their mum say "Its ok, we can meet them at the end" damn I was jealous.

I wished they played more songs instead of dicking around with stuff i'd heard before.
