O2t of Control

From Girls Aloud 2009

Having struggled to get to the O2, and then been disappointed by the lack of any show from Bob Dylan the previous night – one thing that I was sure of - there would be was plenty of show from Girls Aloud on their Out of Control Tour! They certainly didn’t disappoint – it was all about the show, the music took a back seat in favour of costume changes, great lighting and pyrotechnics! There also appears to be a competition building on ways to get out into the audience without a runaway – tonight out did Tina’s  swing arm out above the crowd. I wonder what P!nk and Britney will do to top Girls Aloud’s flying platform. No wonder they where putting up the set almost before Bob Dylan had departed the stage the previous night.

A big bonus was, that without resorting to GetMeIn, I’d managed to get a great seat – looking straight over the stage, with empty seats to my side with the option to move to the back of the stage as the girls used the back of their set. The music might have been slightly vacuous, but the show was full on, bring on P!nk next Friday. Footnote : Normal service resumed on public transport – home in 20 minutes!
