Kasbian want to Dominate the world


The British rockers, whose third album West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum is up for the Barclaycard Mercury Prize, will have their schedules filled with shows for the rest of the year.

"Well, we've got a tour in November, an arena tour in November and we're going around the world 15 times before then and then maybe, hopefully try and get to Saturn at some point because we've not played there yet," lead guitarist Sergio Pizzorno joked.


Tom Meighan hailed the band's Camden Roundhouse gig last night (July 22) as "f***ing emotional" and "amazing".The band were playing the show to an audience filled with competition winners, as part of the iTunes Live festival.Frontman Meighan was visibly awed to see so many of the audience singing along to newer tracks 'Where Did All The Love Go?' and 'Take Aim', clapping them along and showing his appreciation by saying "You're in fine voice Roundhouse!" after the former.Kasabian played a raft of tracks from third album 'West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum', which was nominated for the Barclaycard Mercury Prize earlier this week (July 21), and although they didn't mention that specifically, the band we're in celebratory mood throughout the gig.

The band were joined by a trumpet player for several songs, including fan favourite 'The Doberman', which saw Meighan jokingly square up to the musician at the end of the track, standing directly opposite him with his arms crossed to show his appreciation.
