Ali was at his best. Walked on stage and belted out a great range of new and old favorite classics that had the house rocking from the first line. No support band/artist, made better by a d.j. mixing great ska and reggae tracks before the main event. Looking forward to the new album. Great venue and an alround great night out.

Seen Ali many times as solo and part of UB40. Thought he was on top form on Friday and he looked lovely (far better than last year). Enjoyed all the songs he sang and can't wait for a new album.

Only negatives for me were the DJ was on for too long and the amount of drunks trying to push in (I was right at the front of the stage and 2 fights started behind us). I do however find the seciurity at this venue extremely good (on the ball)!

Would have liked Ali to be on longer but enjoyed every second!!

Ali Campbell was just brilliant . He sang mostly UB40 songs . And as I never actually got to see him in UB40, I finally feel like I have seen them. His voice is so amazing , he sounds just like he does on his records. I just love him.

Great friendly atmosphere. Have seen UB40 and now Ali and I prefer Ali. He did not interact much with the crowd but sang all the songs brilliantly. Shame UB and Ali are not together.
Wasn't a sell out. Disco set before Ali came on and he didn't speak to the crowd either!

As always Ali and the band were amazing, it went so quick, they should have done a few more songs, especially some more of Ali's own stuff, loved Purple Rain!!!!
The DJ was good but it was far too long!! 2 hours of waiting is just too much!
And again as always you get there early, wait for what seems like an eternity for Ali to come on and then when he does you always always get one or two people pushing in, it's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo annoying and rude, if they want to be at the front, they should get there earlier!!!
I've seen Ali at the IndigoO2 before and it is a brilliant venue, nice and cosy, weren't even squashed at the front.

Seen Ali with and without UB40 so many times since 1989 at St. Andrew's Football Ground in Birmingham, I always try to go whenever I can, Ali is MY man!!! (I can dream!)

Everybody should go and see him!!!

The first part of the show was just a DJ playing old reggae songs and it just went on and on and on to the point that I was getting bored. Eventually at 9pm Ali came on and the songs and memories just came flooding back. Everyone was dancing and singing along, Ali had us wrapped around his finger. Wow what a night!!! I danced for 2 1/2 hrs until I had blisters on my feet. Can't wait till next year!!

Not one of the greatest nights to remember, after arriving at 7:15 there was no warm up act, only a DJ who couldn't mix........if I'd employed him for a wedding i'd have been gutted. This would have been ok had he not had to play for two hours as the show did not start till gone 9:00. Is there really no young talent out there who can benefit from opening at such an event?

Ali Campbell himself was good, the vocals were better than expected and the musicians were excellent......but......the show was very impersonnal, no interatction with the audience and he did not even bother to introduce the band members! The last straw was that the main event was far shorter than the Dave Double Decks experience that had gone before with the encore finishing around half ten.

On the Indigo2 itself, we travel a considerable distance to see events there and again the first bar we came accross on entry served no non alcholic drinks.....only water. Great for the majority who can get lashed up, but for those who can't drink it is not ideal.

All in all a generous 5 out of 10!

Waited two hours with a DJ that kept cutting out the beginning of tracks. When Ali came on he was on top form and we really enjoyed the show. It finished very quickly (after about 1hr 15 mins) which was disappointing but was worth going anyway.
Ali played alot of his old vlassics from UB40 which was great but he also did perform tracks from recent albums too.

Got in for 7 but spent 2 hrs waiting for band to start far too long. That was the only problem, would have been better to let audience know when the band was to start
