Arctic Monkeys and The Like at the Electric Factory 09/30/2009

Last night The Like and Arctic Monkeys stormed through Philadelphia by playing a sold-out gig at the Electric Factory. The Like played a short set to open the show with their Californian pop-rock tunes. Once Arctic Monkeys took the stage, the venue’s atmosphere changed instantly. The crowd began to get rowdy and people started ducking out midway through due to the heat and roughness. One girl looked lifeless as she was pulled from the main floor by a security guard. Scary moment, but she recovered after a cup of water. Needless to say, Arctic Monkeys blew minds last night. Photos and setlist below.
