Daylight is the perfect time for THB to be played. It's just a shame they haven't got a giant pair of curtains they could close over Cardiff Castle though!

If I hadn't already booked a ticket to another show I'd have gone to that. The weather seems nice headed into Wales. Hopefully it'll stick around for tomorrow

Yeah I was a concerned at the start of the week because it bucketed down Monday and Tuesday, but it's been warm and sunny the past two days. Phone's weather forecast says rain on Friday from 2-6pm, but history dictates I question its accuracy.

I'm sort of looking forward to it in daylight and on a grander scale. Nice contrast to the more intimate, wintery December date I saw.

James Dean Bradfield sighting about 45 minutes ago! Doodlebug and I passed him on the street by St.John the Baptist church. I literally saw him out of the corner of my eye, and nonchalantly said "Hey James", and he said hello back.

Haha I thought maybe the boys would be in hiding rather than in the streets to avoid potentially thousands of fans arriving in Cardiff today!

I thought the forecast was looking good but someone said thunderstorms tomorrow??

Maybe he was on his way to the sound check? It's still on-going apparently! I heard Europa on my way past but they've done Design, Tolerate, and a couple more according to Twitter.

Regardless it cannot be any worse than my last outdoor concert.

I went to see the Foo Fighters in Slane last weekend. This pic sums it up: http://imgur.com/FXIjbuH

Lipstick Traces, we assumed James was headed for a rehearsal. Our need to nap eclipsed any thoughts of "we should try to hear the sound check!"
