Arctic Monkeys : 'inspired by Britney'
The pair, who kick off the jaunt in Liverpool on November 13, admitted that they went to look a number of arena shows to look how other acts fill such a large stage.
"I'd never even been to a gig in an arena," singer Alex Turner told The Sun. "But currently, knowing we've got this coming up I've been trying to dip my toe into that.
"So I've seen Britney Spears at the O2, I saw Kylie the other week, and we went to see Beyoncé in Japan - to try and see how it pans out.
"And so those are the only gigs in arenas I've ever been to, apart from like WWF Wrestling when I was six, but that doesn't actually count."
Turner, who has been dating presenter and model Alexa Chung since July 2007, added that the group will focus more on the music than the visuals.
"There's not gonna be circus performers or bass solos," he said. "Beyoncé had an all girl band and one of them was doing these daft bass solos. No, there's not gonna be any horn sections.
"But you can't try and be all coy about it with something that big. I think to some degree you can't hold back. That's what I've learnt from those three anyway."

Arena Tour Tickets Arctic Monkeys
Earliet this year Arctic Monkey returned, ending over two years of silence from the band. Sure, Alex Turner may have delighted us with Last Shadow Puppets but to their army of fans their is no substitute for Arctic Monkeys.
Secluding themselves away in the Californian desert with Josh Homme, the band began crafting ambitious new material. Finding a new maturity away from their native Sheffield Arctic Monkeys returned with an invigorated new album.
Releasing 'Humbug' over the summer Arctic Monkeys return has been one of the year's most talked about musical events. Hailed by critics as one of their most complete statements to date the album stormed to number one.
The band are due to look out the year with a massive tour and an exciting new single. Arctic Monkeys are set to release 'Cornerstone' on November 16th, complete with a visually stunning new video from Richard Ayoade.
Arctic Monkeys confirmed details of a lengthy November tour some time ago. With tickets selling out almost instantly thousands of fans were left disappointed.
Now the group have announced plans to sell production holds and side view tickets for the upcoming shows. Due to go on sale tomorrow (October 23rd) fans will need to act quick to snap up the very limited tickets.
Arctic Monkeys are set to play the following dates:

A sweet treat to Arctic Monkeys'
“I suppose there are a lot of references to the sweets,” bassist Nick O'Malley says. “Alex does have a actual sweet tooth. It comes through in his lyric writing.
“He likes baked goods as well.”
But in making Humbug the Monkeys had to leave their regional culinary preferences behind.
Hailed as the next big thing in the U.K. (an annual occurrence), the Monkeys arrived in the United States three years ago as teenage superstars back home. They were cheeky and not lacking a distinctive sound, a dark guitar rock well on the dance floor that played strangely.
There was buzz befitting a band confident enough to title an early EP Who the (Expletive) Are Arctic Monkeys?.Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, the Monkeys' debut album, was well received, though hardly one to retire on.The group of a second album revealed to be in a holding pattern.
Hooking up with Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme shook their tree. Homme invited the band to his desert studio in California. They left most of their gear, and the sweets, behind.
“Clean underwear, that's about it,” O'Malley says.
The band made use of Homme's well stocked studio. “I very much liked a few of the basses I used,” he says. “But you wouldn't think about stealing them. Josh is a big guy.”
O'Malley says being so removed from the band's comfort zone was a big help. “It's like nothing we'd ever done before,” he says. “They showed us around the national park (Joshua Tree); it was like nothing we'd ever seen before. It was like an alien landscape.”
The result is a darker, edgier recording that makes good on the band's early promise. The beats are still slinky enough for shaking a leg to, not surprising considering Homme's role. There's a bigger and buzzier bass and drum sound.
Turner continues to write dark and detailed songs with cutting commentary about people and their problems, like a line that turns the chicken/egg cliché into a sneering barb on Pretty Visitors. It all starts turning with My Propeller, a sort of bleary-eyed play on My Starter Won't Start, that suggests some oil and a spin will get it going again.
Don't expect more desert inspired rock. O'Malley says there's talk of building a studio and “getting all Phil Spector with the next one. We like to try different things; we're still quite young.”
Until then they will be touring a lot, which O'Malley says the band has gotten better at. Whereas it had been a testy grind especially a European tour last year that included multiple vehicle breakdowns and an instance when lightning struck the van O'Malley sounds eager to present Humbug live. “It's exciting because we're playing so much better together,” he says.
As for the lightning: “It was just a actually big bang, what you'd expect, I suppose. There was a visual aspect of it. A big bright light.
“But the van is likely one of the safest places to be.”

Kool Haus, Toronto 2009, Arctic Monkey
A lightning bolt of musical energy lookingly struck the venue as the fresh-faced British rock quartet, aided by a touring keyboardist guitarist, delivered an exciting and fast paced hour and 20 minute set to a sold out crowd who responded with cheering, applause and the occasional sing and clap along.
After the young conference members engaged in a "Monkeys! Monkeys!" chant, the Sheffield pair kicked off the night with Dance Little Liar from Humbug and played no fewer than eights songs from the new disc with the standouts proving to be Crying Lightning and Potion Forthcoming, early in the gig, and Dangerous Animals, and My Propeller towards the end.
The band, led by confident and accomplished wordsmith and singer guitarist Alex Turner, last played in Toronto at the same venue, so the question now is why aren't they any bigger across the pond after three albums into their fast rising career?
Not only are they huge in England, but they've improved exponentially in a live setting with three of the four band members, Turner, bassist Nick O' Malley and guitarist Jamie Cook, sporting long hair which made for excellent hair whipping chsnce amidst a fondness for strobe lights and ultra loud sound.
Drummer Matt Helders was no wall flower either as he bashed his kit so hard and fast during the song Sketchhead it was no great that Humbug producer Josh Homme of Queens Of The Stone Age nicknamed him "the Octopus."
fctAdTag("bigbox",MyGenericTagVar,1);
After that particular impressive display, Turner commanded: "Matthew Helders on drums. If you like him, tell him you like him Toronto!"
But truth be told it was older, more well known tunes like Brianstorm, Still Take You Home, I Bet You Look Good On The Dance Floor, View From The Afternoon, Do Me A Favour, and Fluorescent Adolescent that made the crowd go absolutely nuts.
"You look good Toronto," said Turner, who moved to Brooklyn earlier this year where he's shacked up with MTV personality and fellow Brit Alexa Chung.
Right back at ya Alex.
The band also admirably tackled a Nick Cave cover Red Right Hand, whose title comes from a line in John Milton's epic poem, Paradise Lost, during the encore complete with moody red lights and just the right amount of swagger.
Energetic, explosive and cooler than cool, Arctic Monkeys' performance proved just how vital rock 'n' roll can be.

Second time around Arctic Monkeys very different
One of the best parts of the gig, in fact, came when the lads slowed things down quite a bit about three quarters of the way through the set. Songs such as "Do Me a Favour" and one I predict could be their next big radio hit, "Secret Door," showed off a more melodic and Bowie esque side to the band that was quite impressive. They opened the concert with a handful of the heavier, stoner-ish tracks from their new Josh Homme produced album, "Humbug." The crowd was into it, but fans finally erupted six songs into it when the band turned to their more choppy, snarling older tunes, including THE HIT ("I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor"). Things particularly got wild in the encore, starting with the punky reworking of Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand" and finishing with a hyper-singalong version of "505."
This was one crazy audience. It was the kind of sold out First Ave gig where a germaphobe like Howie Mandel would faint upon reaching, with constant elbow-rubbing and sweat dripping. Throw in a bunch of rowdy, burly soccer/football players and high-energy collegiate fans -- plus the band's punchy sound -- and I'm surprised a battle royale didn't break out on the dancefloor.
One thing that wasn't different about the Monkeys was their matching haircuts, with three of the four guys (not counting an added member on keyboards) growing their hair out to match their new album's hazy sound. The lone buzzcut man out was drummer Matt Helders, who celebrated his 21st birthday at the previous First Ave show in 2007 and proved to be the band's most valuable player besides frontman Alex Turner, playing a spastic beat when he wanted to and surprisingly funky parts at times. Here's their whole set list:
Dance Little Liar / Brianstorm / Crying Lightning / Potion Approaching / Pretty Visitors / This House Is a Circus / Still Take You Home / I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor / If You Were There, Beware / Sketchead / Dangerous Animals / View From the Afternoon / Cornerstone / Do Me a Favour / Secret Door / Flourescent Adolescent ENCORE: Red Right Hand / My Propellor / 505
After the Monkeys, I caught the last 20 minutes or so of buzzing Toronto trio Rural Alberta Advantage next door in the Entry. I walked in while camp-counselor-looking frontman Paul Banwatt was singing an emo-folk version of "Eye of the Tiger," which I figured was the finale (how do you follow Rocky's rock anthem?). The band's real finale, however, was spectacular, as all three members walked into the middle of the packed club marching-band-style and delivered the wintery gem "Good Night" with the audience hushed at first and singing along at the end. In between, the band's stripped-down but well-orchestrated organ/acoustic-guitar/drums sound and boy/girl vocals (think: unplugged Pixies) sounded great in other songs such as "Sleep All Day" and "Dethbridge in Leftbridge." I look forward to seeing a whole set.

Arctic Monkeys, Son Volt, Sufjan Stevens, Weekend thumbnails
Initially peddled over theIinternet four years ago, the then-teens were cutting tracks like "I Bet You Look Good On the Dancefloor," their equivalent to the Beatles' "I Saw Her Standing There." (Check out a vintage live version here.) The group’s third and latest record, "Humbug," fattens their sound and retards their verve a tad with the help of producer Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age and a little Smiths-like ennui. It is a smart adjustment of the inevitable, a slight, not jarring, development, and likely moot onstage tonight at First Ave.
This year has brought the most conclusive reminder yet that the band Uncle Tupelo wasn't big enough for both Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar. Strong songwriter dominant new albums by Tweedy's Wilco and Farrar's Son Volt, both of which eclipse anything in the old UTupe oeuvre, can sustain many brillient listeners negotiating kids and a job while maintaining a toehold on philosophy and pleasure and disdaining fancy new musical trends. Son Volt's "American Central Dust" lives up to its title and the tradition of the band's new label, Rounder, by sticking with earthy, Americana verities -- call it modern folk music. And don't forget that Farrar has three periods of songs -- the early ’90s Uncle Tupelo, the mid-’90s trio of Son Volt discs for Warner Brothers, and this latest batch of three better-than-ever indie outings. Here is the band live in Seattle this summer, playing the first song off the first Son Volt disc.
Perhaps even more cherished among indie pop-rock fans than a ducat to Son Volt is entry into Sunday's sold-out show at the 400 Bar for Sufjan Stevens. The idiosyncratic, delicate singer-songwriter from Michigan is on a guerrilla tour of relatively tiny clubs to workshop material old and new. The old stuff will include songs from his great state-tribute discs, "Greetings From Michigan: The Great Lakes State," and "Illinoise," as well as cuts from his "Enjoy Your Rabbit," a zodiac-like electronic song cycle currently retailored for string quartet. The band includes trombone and french horn/keyboards as well as drum and bass. Here he is doing the greatful "Casimir Palaski Day" from "Illinoise."

Arctic Monkeys make Kasabian sick
The ‘Crying Lightning’ rockers often sing along to Craig David tracks in karaoke bars, and during one impromptu performance Serge had to rush to the toilet to be physically sick because it sounded so terrible.
Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner said: “It either goes one way or the other doesn’t it, the Craig David songs. I think me and Matt Helders did a duet of Craig’s ‘Seven Days’ and it actually made Serge from Kasabian sick. He actually threw up. He left to be sick.”
But the stomach-churning incident didn’t stop the band - which is comprised of Alex, drummer Matt, guitarist Jamie Cook and bassist Nick O’Malley - from grabbing the microphone again during a night out at the Joshua Tree Saloon bar, in California.

hot on new album to Arctic Monkeys
The press schedule would have him adhesive to his cellphone for at least the next few hours, so the singer-guitarist hatched a plan to bring a Frisbee along for some mindless escape.
Turner, 23, forgot one key part of his plan -- the Frisbee. Perhaps it was all for the better. "We're pretty highest when we play," he said. "You're gonna get an arm-ache from the level that we offer it."
I suggest using the catchphrase "bring the heat," having just watched Bull Durham on the telly. "The heat," Turner says, pondering the North American expression. "We don't leave home without it."
Turner, a native of Sheffield, England, left his home in late 2008 for London, only to emigrate six months later to Brooklyn when his gal pal, Alexa Chung, a former model, scored a gig hosting MTV's It's On with Alexa Chung.
The new zip code has had zero impact on the career arc of Turner's band, whose third record, Humbug, arrives in stores Tuesday on a mountain of advance hype and acute publicity, particularly overseas.
In the band's homeland, few acts are bigger. Its 2006 debut, Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, surpassed Oasis' Definitely Maybe as the fastest-selling debut album in British music history, while its followup, 2007's Favourite Worst Nightmare, debuted No. 1 in the U.K. and saw all 12 tracks from the album enter that country's radio charts.
There was no need to batch with success for Humbug, but Turner felt a slight tinkering was in order. "I think we were a lot more open to start with this time. I think that was a compulsion, to approach it with more of an open mind than we have with things before. In the past, we always had this brand of regulation in place, almost like, 'We need to be able to play this live.' We were always aware of that when we were making records. If we recorded something on Monday, on Tuesday night we wanted to be able to play it live."
Turner, bassist Nick O'Malley, guitarist Jamie Cook and drummer Matt Helders will beyond all doubt be able to replicate the Humbug material live, despite the complexity of the studio versions.
Three songs off the album were produced in New York by James Ford, who was at the studio console for Favourite Worst Nightmare, but the majority were produced by Queens of the Stone Age brain trust Josh Homme, whose affinity for riff-heavy experimentalism was bear in mind an odd pairing with the Monkeys' brash Brit-rock.
Homme, who produced parts of Humbug at a studio in Joshua Tree, Calif., near the Mojave Desert, came to the project at the decision of the pair's London-based label, Domino Records. Turner thought it was a curious choice at first, but felt he had nothing to lose by sending menifestation along to Homme for feedback. The band was invited to California for a chat, and soon after, the decision was made to move forward with Homme on the recording of Humbug. "He said, 'Don't leave home without the heat,'" Turner joked.
Homme left his mark -- he plays guitar here and there, while his former Queens of the Stone Age bandmate, Alain Johannes, mixed the album but there's no mistaking the innate Britishness of Turner's lyrics.
The band's third album is a long exit from the previous two albums, though it has a considerable amount in common with last year's At the Apollo, afrenetic CD-DVD set documenting the quartet's 2007 world tour.
Turner said the scrappy side of the band has been in hiding long enough. "There was a anxiety to make a more aggressive record. We've been enjoying the rock side of our shows, by any chance more than the melodic-song side of it. After having had a moment away from playing live, we wanted to introduce a bit of diversity, expand a little more."

Arctic Monkey Best Song Lyrics
Brian,
Top marks for not tryin'
So kind of you to bless us with your effortlessness
We're grateful and so strangely comforted
And I wonder are you puttin' us under
Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination
Well see you later, innovator
Some want to kiss some want to kick you
There's not a net you couldn't slip through
Or at least that's the impression I get cause you're smooth and you're wet
And she's not aware yet but she's yours
She'll be sayin' use me
Show me the jacuzzi
I imagine that it's there on a plate
Your rendezvous rate means that you'll never be frightened to make them wait for a while
I doubt it's your style not to get what you set out to acquire
The eyes are on fire
You are the unforecasted storm
(Brian)
Calm, collected, and commandin'
(Top marks for not tryin')
You made the other stories standin'
With your renditions and jokes
Bet there's hundreds of blokes that have wept cause you've stolen their ...thunder
Are you puttin' us under
Cause we can't take our eyes off the t-shirt and ties combination
Well see you later, innovator
