Since opening in 1871 the Royal Albert Hall has occupied a central position in the cultural life of the nation. Largely built with funds subscribed by private individuals and operating under a Royal Charter, the Hall has fulfilled this role for over a century without public funding. The first comprehensive programme of development since the Hall's construction will be completed by the end of 2003 and will cost close to £70 million.

This show was absolutely incredible.
Maximo Park are an indie rock band,
their lead man Paul Smith wears a black Dior fedora and black shirt and trousers for this theatrical
dramatic performance of quirky love songs.A brass quintet and female string quartet accompanied some of the more powerful songs(Karaoke Plays,Let's Get Clinical and Our Velocity) in a 21 song set.
The highlight of the night was
keyboards man Lukas Wooller playing the 200 year old RAH organ to Acrobat,a jaw-dropping moment indeed.
An evening to remember in the majestic Royal Albert Hall.
