Razorlight gigs
are renowned for being hot, sweaty affairs which leave your vocal chords in tatters,
you legs trembling with exhaustion and your ears buzzing.
With the crowd
being liberally sprayed with cold water before the lads had even set foot on the
stage, it was clear that everyone was up for a right old knees up.

As
well as the usual drums, amps guitars etc, the stage also had a few abnormalities
dotted about - an ancient typewriter sitting on top of an amp, a vintage telephone
on another and bizarrely a wooden coat stand in front of the drum kit.
As
the lads sprang onto the stage led by the highly charged Johnny Borrell and kicked
off with Rip It Up, it was apparent that we'd need every scrap of energy.
Razorlight
have mastered the trick of the live performance with tight-jeaned, whippet-thin
bass player Carl running the length of the stage leaping into impressive scissor
jumps.
Meanwhile frontman Johnny has the wild, rock n' roll look off to
a tee and is also clearly a hit with the ladies - with screams and temperatures
soaring as he striped down to a vest top before finally going topless.

The
set was spot on with every song going down a treat with the bouncing crowd from
Which Way is Out to the mighty Golden Touch and the blistering Up All Night.
The rip-roaring Vice was the highlight for many, with its infectious melody and
jolty guitars, the crowd po-goed along and belted back the sing-a-long chorus.
With
bedraggled hair and sweat pouring off him, Johnny leapt into a delighted crowd
for In The City before
they closed their set by unleashing a final huge dollop of rock n' roll in the
form of Stumble And Fall.
