Well I was miles away at the back of the NIA but still had an amazing time.
Loved hearing Daughtry live and I'dd be mega-chuffed if they did an o2 academy headline tour for a full 90 minutes close up with the band. Great stage presence and setlist although I was a bit disappointed they only did 'No Surprise' off my favourite Daughtry CD 'Leave This Town' and did 2 tracks from debut (amongst 5 in total) that I like but am not so fussed on ('Feels Like Tonight', 'There and Back Again').
Nickelback were just awesome! I enjoy their albums but find the overtly pervy lyrics and swear words not to my liking too much at times so don't own loads of their albums. Did a compilation of their singles and tracks that aren't so blatantly pervy a few months back though and it's on in my car constantly. So Daughtry was my major pull to book this gig but Nickelback rocked the arena, packed out to almost full, with a superb set, rocking show, fantastic sound, spectacular lights and video show and really natural, relaxed and funny interactions on the stage and with the crowd. A truly superb live band and 10/10 for me. Loved it!
