Aw... I thought I'd be the first to post!
Anyway, as apumpkin says, the show was delayed an hour by a fire alarm. However, when they got going - fantastic is an understatement. Bass was bassier than I've ever heard, the backscreen is immense, just incredible. And what a venue.
Setlist was same as Tilburg on Tuesday - great start with Galvanise, Burst Generator, GYH and HBHG. For me, just taking it to extreme (even more than normal) in Believe before letting it go was the dogs.
Anyway, have a lot of poor quality clips from the phone - happy to post or email direct (post after this and I'll get in touch) if anyone wants them, but I'm sure others will post on youtube, etc.
Just fantastic. I'm on a high now. Ears are buzzing.

Rad!! Fire alarms take the Chems to a whole new level! It's all part of the experience - it's an annoyance to have been evacuated, but still... it's cool because you now have a great little side story to go with the gig! And it all turned out all right.
Glad to read you had a great time, apumpkin. Your body must be tired but your brain must be wide awake. Gotta love that chemical afterglow. :)

I just read about the fire alarm in some website haha...
"Push the alarm button
The Chemical Brothers' gig at London Roundhouse on Thursday was delayed by 90 minutes due to a fire alarm.
The alarm - thought to have been caused by someone smoking in a toilet - went off 10 minutes before the duo were due on stage. It's the third time the venuealarm has gone off in a week, with two Groove Armada gigs delayed by 45 mins.
The gig began at 10:30pm, with only the encore missing in an 80-minute set."

fair play to them, I started to think it would be cancelled and a mini riot was going to start outside. Got back in a little grumpy but once the Chemical Brothers came on everyone soon forgot and were blown away. Awesome gig, just made the last tube home and can't wait to see them at Glastonbury. A big thumbs down to seetickets and the roundhouse staff for lack of communication.
