Volta vulture.
Darkness. Silence. A crowded space. Suddenly, bam, the sound of live trumpets, a flash of light and the brilliant voice that is Bjork.
The crowds shuffled as they tried to catch a glimpse of this distinctive icon. However, stuck behind security barriers a montage of silhouette heads offered no happiness. Massive walls either side of the stage were screenless with no live footage for unfortunate fans stranded at the back.
Those that were fortunate enough got to witness Bjork's mesmerising stage presence watched attentively as fans swayed and jumped to tunes such as Hunter and Oceania. Dancing and singing on stage Bjork and her Icelandic brass band entertained the crowd with their performance.
By the end of the show the crowd didn't want to leave. Fans loitered taking photos of the stage and chatting amongst themselves.
Eaves-dropping on conversations there was disappointment that the sound system had ruined Bjork's performance and their enjoyment of the night.
As they complained others left i-pod in ear not having had enough of the Icelandic songstress.
