Foals play biggest London show yet
Oxford band complete tour on a high note
Foals completed the final night of their UK tour with their largest headline London show to date last night (March 17).
The Oxford band played a 50-minute set in front of a sold-out crowd at the Astoria, including recent Shockwaves NME Awards host Matt Horne and members of The Maccabees.
Speaking from the stage lead singer Yannis Philippakis said: "This is the last show of the tour, we've been looking forward to this show for a long time."
Foals played:
'XXXX'
'The French Open'
'Cassius'
'Olympic Airways'
'Balloons'
'Heavy Water'
'Two Steps, Twice'
'Hummer'
'Red Socks Pugie'
'Electric Bloom'
'Mathletics'
'Antidotes', Foals' debut album, is released next Monday (March 24) - the band will celebrate by supporting REM at London's Royal Albert Hall. The sold-out show is part of the ICA venue's 60th birthday celebrations.
As previously reported on NME.COM the Astoria venue has lost its battle to remain open in its current form.
