Snow Patrol began their European tour last night (October 9) at Copenhagen’s Vega Bar.
The band played a set mixing songs from their recent albums, ’Eyes Open’ and ’Final Straw’.
Singer Gary Lightbody dedicated ’Open Your Eyes’ to the Northern Ireland football team saying: “We’re only a tiny small little country, and we beat Spain the other day. This song is for the Northern Ireland Football Team – I love them!”
Clearly in a generous mood Lightbody also dedicated ’Run’ to the sold out crowd telling them Copenhagen was one of the “most beautiful cities in the world.”
Snow Patrol played:
‘Spitting Games’
‘Wow’
‘Chocolate’
‘It’s Beginning To Get To Me’
‘Headlights On Dark Roads’
