PJ Harvey Some Radio One event called Soho Live with John Parrish, Baby Bird and Geneva. Mean Fiddler
Queen Only Brian May and Roger Taylor, with Paul Rodgers on vocals, no John Deacon.

The Darkness Setlist: "Bareback", "Black Shuck", "Best of me", "Love is only a feeling", "Get your hands off", "Givin' up", "Stuck in a rut", "I believe in a thing called love", "Love on the rocks with no ice" Metro
The Darkness NME On night, with Kennedy Soundtrack Barfly
Madonna Plus Hue & Cry and The Bhundu Boys, but not the rumoured Wet Wet Wet. My first concert, went with a friend from school and some friends of his dad. Sounds a bit weird now. Got the t-shirt, programme, every bit of junk going... Wembley Stadium
