Watch Saturday's 'Big Weekend' performance

Bloc Party took a break from recording their second album to play at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend on Saturday. They chose to stick to the older songs, banging out the crowdpleasers to an enthusiastic crowd.

Their whole performance can be streamed from the Radio 1 website here. To see Bloc Party's set, scroll about 40 minutes in!

Setlist:
So Here We Are
Positive Tension
Banquet
Blue Light
She's Hearing Voices
This Modern Love
Two More Years
Like Eating Glass
Helicopter

Labels: Videos

Hey, thanks for posting up a link to the performance, you've come through as always!
the only problem is... that it says you have to be a uk user - i live in spain and it seems to be picking that up! :O
any idea how i can avoid that? i saw some of it live on tv but i'd really like to listen to it again... any chance you'll be posting up mp3s?
anywho, sorry to post up my problem here! i'll be grateful for any advice or help!

Hey...hmm, that's strange - it shouldn't matter that you're in another country! Maybe you could try contacting the people who do the Radio 1 website? In the meantime, I'll try to get hold of some mp3s of the gig!

thanks for the attempted help!
