It seems to have been a fab night! There's a couple of vids on this link( http://news.stv.tv/scotland/west-cen...rm-in-glasgow/ ).: one of the fans but showing Jedward arriving . (Check out all the security guards and police vans ) There's a 2nd vid of the boys performing Ghost busters. The crowd are loving it!

People had been tweeting from the queue that they were being filmed, so it must 've been this that they were talking about.

So much for the low, false slurs that the boys were miming and needed dancers and big productions.They have proved at Gay and here, they were not miming and do not need anything but themselves.
The place is mad, they sure can entertain.

Great videos!

And so much for Max Clifford's claim that their target audience is 5-12 year olds.Everyone who paid into that gig last night was over 18.....the guy hasn't a clue what he's talking about.

Blimey, the amount of security is mad.

I think the boys proved in that Rock DJ sing off they didn't really need the big productions to be entertaining. But they can do the big productions if you want them to.

They are just so much fun.

I feel all those miming lies were deliberately planted to smear the boys and contributed to them being voted off for sure.
Everyone can see now that they are all lies, which those of us unbiased always knew.
I prefer them freelance on stage to choreographed I must say.

Well I could always hear them singing on their tracks. I think some people were so brain washed with the "tone deaf twins" campaign that if they heard anything in tune from them at all they just dismissed it as the backing track.

I prefer the free style choreography too, Edward looks a lot more comfortable with it!

Exactly! The boys were slandered in those papers about miming and cheating They had terrible bad press . It must've influenced the public to a certain extent.

I'm glad to see the boys doing all these gigs now though. It's going to help them hone their skills and keep them in the public eye. If you think about it, they had never performed in public before XF and they were performing for the first time in front of millions. They're remarkable really. I hope Modest doesn't work them into the ground though, as their gig list is impressive. They need time to draw breath lol.

Another little snippet in the paper re last night just confirming what crowd pleasers they were.- http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/d..._hits_town.php

I've just found this on youtube! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsZGdl4q4Nk It's practically their whole set! The crowd were loving them! I'm so happy they got such a good reception. It looks like they were going to get mobbed after Under Pressure. Security had their work cut out keeping people off the stage!

Anyone else notice they've been wearing the same suits since Friday? Hope they mended the rip in John's suit!

Maybe they bought several the same so they'd have spare for washing/incase of tears etc. :/

I'm chuffed that the twins are having so much fun. I was a bit worried about them going out doing gigs as it felt like they might be being thrown to the wolves after all that booing and such. But it looks like there is definately a large following for them. Maybe they will become 'cult'? lol


Just thought I'd add, that in retrospect Louis picked them some good songs. The songs they've got are all a bit sing a long, and get up and jump/dance about like mad things and feel good and have fun, whereas some of the contestants that got ballads all the time wont get much audience participation and it wont be quite as exciting.

Thanks again you guys for adding the links...I'm loving this.

So absolutely chuffed for the lads that things are working out for them, I was really worried for their well being.

They are turning into right little pros, working the crowd and everything. God bless 'em.

I agree I think this will be the case on the live tour where they will hopefully do the full productions of their songs.

Lovin’ how the crowd go when they do Under Pressure and the Ice Ice Baby bit where they dance in line.

Has it been said about Danni’s tribute to “Jedward” last night on the Xtra Factor? Did she not have her hair in a Jed?

It's really good to see videos of these gigs, they look as if they're in their element. It's hard work for the moment, but it will be such good experience for them, as others have said they really look professional and they are learning so fast! They really seem to know how to work the audience and as noorani says the songs they're doing are ideal for these sorts of performances - everyone can join in and the songs have a feelgood factor.

I was worried too but no need by the looks of things!
