Proper respect should be given to Green Day's opening act as well because the Kaiser Chiefs still managed to get us moving despite a crappy sound system and the rudeness of the crowd. Unfortunately, they didn't include their wicked cover of "I Heard It Through The Grapevine" where they obviously imagine the original was done not by Marvin or Gladys but The Clash circa "Sandanista". It's said that they tossed this together during a three hour layover for inclusion on "Help: A Day In The Life", the 2005 installment of the War Child benefit albums - one that couldn't get what would have been a very helpful US release - and it sounds like it in all the best ways.
