Review: Arctic Monkeys, Metro Radio Arena, Newcastle
In the first of two gigs at Metro Radio Arena last night, they played a perfect combination of new tracks from their latest album Tranquillity Base Hotel and Casino and old favourites.
And as you'd imagine, the crowd went crazy for Don't Sit Down 'cause I've Moved Your Chair; Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor and Snap Out of It.

If I'd seen one for sale I'd have been tempted.
R U Mine was the perfect end to a gig that delivered on every level.
The Monkeys kicked off the night with Four (stars) Out of Five......this is easy, it's a five out of five from me.
