'Indie heroes' James bring the roof off Llangollen Pavilion
The roar and chorus of the audience said it all, as Tim Booth and pals were unstoppable. Opening with Johnny Yen from their 1986 album Stutter, the band powered through a dynamic set featuring fan favourites like Seven, Come Home, Just Like Fred Astaire, and She's A Star. The reaction to Shadow of a Giant from last year's Yummy – the band's first-ever number one album – proved why these Manchester legends are as relevant today as they were more than 30-years-ago. The final run – Sit Down, Tomorrow and Sometimes – became a mass singalong, with 6,000 voices lifting the roof off of the Pavilion. A euphoric encore of Sound and Laid brought the night to a powerful close. Supporting James were rising indie stars The K's and singer/guitarist Tom A Smith. TK Maxx presents Live at Llangollen Pavilion continues on Thursday with headliner The Script.
