PODCAST EXCLUSIVE!

By the time Bloc Party was ready to take the stage -- after a lengthy technical problem with singer Kele Okereke's monitor -- the venue had begun to show just how sold out it was. The upper seats and lawn, which had been sparsely used during the Mew and Two Gallants sets, were filled with late-comers, all the space around us on the floor had been taken as well.

This set-opener was once of three new songs they played, and already seems to be well known among the band's fans. As they begin playing, you'll hear a noticable cheer of awareness. One of the band members noted later, that's the power of the Internet.
