Date of Concert: 4/16/2010 | Location: Las Vegas
Finally The Arctic Monkeys come to Las Vegas. I have been waiting for this for years - so much so that I couldn't wait any longer and drove to LA to see them last year. But I was psyched to see them in the relatively small House Of Blues.....as were many, many other people. HOB has not been this packed since the Foo Fighters back in 2003. Walked in just before kick off and had to settle for a spot near the back and while the set started pretty lively, the band and crowd seemed quite tame. People reacted best to songs off the first album, but they were few and far between. The Monkeys seemed distant and as if they were going through the motions. Overall a bit lacklustre, with my highlights being I bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor and Nick Cave's Red Right Hand. Disappointing but I won't give up on them yet.

Ever since their debut "Whatever People Say I Am...That's What I'm Not". I have wanted to see the Arctic Monkeys live. But again they are not coming to Las Vegas, so I will go to them. With work a little quiet, I took a couple of extra days off and drove to California for the night to see some rock. I had seen Bloc Party earlier in the year at the Palladium and suggested we get there early, as last time they only let a limited number on the floor. And we were there as doors were due to open, and the queue was around 2 corners. However there was no limit to who was on the floor for this show - go figure!. We got in, checked out the merchandise (meh!), bought a couple of $12 beers - yeah worse than Vegas - and was in our spot as The Like kicked off. This LA all girl band played a good blend of pop/surf rock, though it got a bit samey in the end. Was a fairly good match up for an opening act. But we weren't there to see the Like. And when the Monkeys came on stage the noise from the crowd was deafening. At first it seemed if being on stage was a hassle (geez it's only the 2nd show of the tour), but it wasn't long before they lightened up and really let go. Sound was fantastic and the songs brilliant. I knew they'd play a lot of their latest album, which I'd heard only a couple of times, but it was all good. Definitely was an enjoyable show, even though they only played 3 songs from the 1st album (which is my fave). Actually in hindsight, I'd have gone to San Diego the night before if I'd known how good the show was going to be. Definitely worth the drive down from Vegas. Highlights were I Bet That You Look Good On The Dance Floor and the cover of Nick Cave's Red Right Hand.
