Once started, the drummer's right foot didn't stop stomping his bass drum until the end of the concert, keeping the audience firmly in line throughout an impressive 90 minutes of d-i-s-c-o.

All you Scara lovers out there would have felt more at home than ever during the last minutes of the show, as Franz Ferdinand, after serving the audience with their success singles such as Take Me Out and Dark of the Matinee, proceeded to give a sweeping account of their dancefloor touch with 20 minutes of electronic excellence. Closing your eyes could take you into Scara's dwellings at 3 in the morning, kept upright only by the ever-rolling beat and lead through multiple trances by uncountable ever so slight alterations of the synthesiser's mazes.
