I had the opportunity to see Operator Please at the Big Day Out earlier in the year. Whilst I think their performance at the Big Day Out was slightly better, I must admit that the crowd warmed to them better here. I guess that’s what happens when you get a fair amount of national air time, and have such infectious catchy songs. Big hits with the crowd were all the usual suspects of Just a Song About Ping Pong and Get What You Want.

I don’t think I have seen The Tivoli crowd so packed. The main floor area was packed with eager fans with the balcony equally packed with fans hanging out and over the railing to try and improve their view of the stage. I haven’t been in such an enthusiastic crowd for some time. The crowd really made this a great experience. They were singing along, dancing, throwing their hands up in the air. Every song was a highlight. The Tivoli just had such a great atmosphere all night. The only disappointment came when the last song was played and we all had to go home. I said in a previous review that was undecided about the Arctic Monkeys. That is no longer the case with the continued superb releases since then and following it all up with live show like this one. This is yet another band that I will be taking an interest in and eagerly await the next full length release.
