    Arctic Monkeys and The Prodigy Storm Leeds Festival - Exclusive Photos

    Arctic Monkeys were forced to briefly halt their headline set at Leeds Festival last night due to crushing in the crowd.

    Four songs in, the Sheffield band stopped mid-way through Brianstorm with Alex Turner urging the crowd to “pick anyone up if they fall.”

    Fortunately the set soon resumed and the band rattled through a set dominated by material from their third album 'Humbug.'

    Despite playing a stormer, the set got a mixed reception from the crowd some of whom wanted a more hits ladden set.

    The set list was as follows:

    My Propeller
    Red Right Hand
    Crying Lightning
    Brianstorm
    Still Take You Home
    I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor
    Potion Approaching
    Pretty Visitors
    This House Is A Circus
    If You Were There, Beware
    When The Sun Goes Down
    Dangerous Animals
    The View From The Afternoon
    Cornerstone
    Only Ones Who Know
    Do Me A Favour
    Fluorescent Adolescent
    Secret Door
    505

    • played a stomer ? they where shit. there wasnt a mixed reaction, everyone thought they where shit. alex turner was ****ed and he cant pull it off. the set list was awful and they didnt read the crowd. they then went to reading and did the same. it was embarresing at best.

    • I was at leeds and they were shite. No energy, no participation with the crowd and alex turner over seemed to be taking the piss out of us. Seriously, 15 minutes of fame and headlining at leeds over the prodigy!! Somebody got it very wrong. Kings of leon were shite as well, at least Keiser chiefs were entertaining and worked the crowd. The prodigy were awesome.
