What's wrong with this?

The White Stripes - the most sexually explosive band ever. In Alexandra Palace* - the sort of place that makes the Boeing manufacturing plant look cosy / ideal for concert acoustics.

It's simply wrong and although I think Jack and Meg are fantastic the venue was unsuitable (not sure what Alexandra Palace is suitable for - perhaps it's worth a trip by daylight?). And it's a pain in the arse to get to / back from.

Might find out other more suitable venues they are touring and see if I can get a ticket. Second time lucky perhaps, even if I have to go to Waunarlwydd working men's club to see them play.**

* AKA 'Ally Pally' which for some reason is a nickname that really annoys me
** Somehow doubt they have this on the tour plan
