Justin Hawkins new band hot legs are supporting so it should be a good night!!!

I don't understand the rationale behind that remark! On the other hand, Stone Gods, formed from the rest of The Darkness, aren't too bad.

[Dickster]

Yup.

Looking well forward to this. I've seen them 3 times before and I think this will be the smallest venue so far for me.

New album is typical Extreme if you ask me. Picks up from where they left off but a little more mature?

Let's RARK!!!

Oh aye, excellent!

They really did look like they enjoyed it, as the crowd really did.

I think that was defo the best I've seen them. Maybe it was due to the smaller venue or the fact that it's been so long, dunno. All I know is that I want to see them again!.....and again......and again......

Aye.

[satchbot]

Good stuff.

Roll on Gary Moore in May

I would've paid the ticket price just to see that TB. Hope they did it justice!

Saw Extreme in London last night and they were really good; I was never really into them at the time but they were really really good!

Hotleg... utter utter toilet, in fact utter bilge; certainly the worse band I have seen in the last 5 years, very very bad!!! Its such a pity, the Darkness were always a laugh and put on a show, last night was pathetic. Also, Justin Hawkins new it, the whole way he projected himself was just embarrasing. RUBBISH!

I saw them many moons ago at SECC. Was for the 3 sides tour, too far to travel for a mid week gig.

Saw them at the Newcastle show and I thought they were great. I've seen them before and was a big fan, but before this show I tried listening to the new album and was bored by it. But it sounds very 'Extreme' so I was worrying that maybe I've just gone off them and I'd not enjoy the older stuff either. Needn't have worried though because I was well into it.

Though I have the say, the sound was probably the worst I've ever heard at a professional gig ever, possibly with the exception of Steve Vai's Sex & Religion tour, also at the Newcastle City Hall strangely enough.
