Snow Patrol <<scroll down for Photos>>
I have liked Snow Patrol since hearing their singles "Spitting Games" and "How To Be Dead" appeared in about 2004. Somehow the superlative "Run" and "Chocolate" had somehow passed me by.
Saw them in Hyde Park at the Live8 gig in 2005.
Somehow they evolved into everybody's favourite anthem-packing band at festivals. For an age they seemed to be supporting U2 on a world tour.
"Chasing Cars" is very dear to me. "Set The Fire To The Third Bar" is just a beautiful record. "Take Back The City" and "Crack The Shutters" are just good tracks.
Managed to get to a gig at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in 2011 just after they released the "Fallen Empires" album. This was superb as they played a 30 minute acoustic set to "support" the full set. This also featured a guest appearance by Emmy The Great singing "Set The Fire To The Third Bar". Brilliant evening
Number of times seen: 1 gig plus Live8
