NewsThe Enemy get Jersey Live dancingThe Enemy played at the Jersey Live festival tonight (September 1), getting the crowd dancing with a hit-packed set. Today was the first day of the two-day festival, which has seen 10,000 music lovers come together on the island to watch the likes of The Twang and Super Furry Animals perform. The Fratellis will headline the first day later tonight, with Kasabian headlining tomorrow. Taking the stage at 19:15 GMT, singer/guitarist Tom Clarke led his band through a frenetic set, kicking off with crowd favourites '40 Days And 40 Nights' and 'Away From Here'. Up until The Enemy's set the atmosphere at the festival had been relaxed and sedate, something acknowledges by Clarke when he said, "I want to see some people jumping up and down during this next song, let's see what you've got," before playing 'Technodancaphobic'. The crowd responded by gearing up energy levels, dancing and crowd surfing for the rest of the set. Clarke continued on his mission to get the crowd more animated, saying, "This song's called 'Aggro', so I want to see some aggro," before playing the aforementioned song. By the time The Enemy ended their set, with a high-octane performance of 'You're Not Alone', the crowd were cheering and dancing, the atmosphere considerable more charged. Take That join Diana line-up The group initially turned down an invitation to perform at the event, to be held at Wembley Stadium on July 1, because they had booked holidays. Band member Mark Owen said: "We were all due to be away with our families on the date of the event when the concert was first announced, but after being asked to perform last week we got together and decided we wanted to do anything we could to help make Diana's concert one of the highlights of the summer." He added: "Diana was an inspiration to so many people and we feel privileged to have met her." It is hoped that Robbie Williams might join his ex-bandmates on stage for the first time in 12 years. Take That join a line-up which includes Lily Allen, Sir Elton John, Joss Stone, Rod Stewart, Bryan Ferry and Kanye West. The event has been devised by Princes William and Harry as a celebration of their mother's life, and will be broadcast live to millions of viewers in more than 140 countries. The concert marks what would have been Diana's 46th birthday. Prince William said: "We wanted to have this big concert, full of energy, full of the sort of fun and happiness which I know she would have wanted. "And on her birthday as well, it's got to be the best birthday present she ever had." |
