A Night On The Tiles For The Enemy

The Enemy joined Kasabian's Tom Meighan for a spot of champers, as reported in The Mirror.

Diners at the swanky Gilgamesh bar in Camden got more than they bargained for when Kasabian's Tom Meighan got battered on champagne and started jumping on top of the tables.

The boys forked out £3,000 for Christian Audigier champers for the band and their mates Stephen Graham and The Enemy, after their "emotional" iTunes performance at the Roundhouse.

And with Tom shouting "Come on let's have it," the boys were necking it at a startling pace.

The Enemy iTunes Festival

The Enemy supported the mighty Oasis at the iTunes Festival in London tonight (21/07/09). The event was being held at the Roundhouse in Camden and Tom Clarke encouraged fans to get involved saying, "This is a rock 'n' roll gig, not a tea party!" The iTunes crowd responded by singing along to 'Away From Here' and Tom was clearly enjoying the atmosphere as he said, "That is a bit more f**king like it London."

Tom later asked fans if they were looking forward to Oasis to which he said in response, "You sound half asleep, you need to get some f**king beer down ya!" The crowds cheered louder and were in fine voice during 'We'll Live And die in These Towns'.

There was a special shout-out to XFM radio as Tom dedicated 'Happy Birthday Jane' to them saying, "Thanks to XFM, who backed us from the very early days." Another loud cheer went up as Tom thanked Oasis for having them as support, with that the final track was performed and Oasis took over as the next performers at the iTunes Festival.

Noel Gallagher told XFM that The Enemy went down a storm on their recent tour and he enjoyed their music, having bought the first album. When asked about the press reports about the 'fallout' between Liam and Tom Clarke, he said that "Liam had nothing to Twitter about", showing that there was nothing to 'fallout' about with The Enemy.

The Enemy performed:

Had Enough
Aggro
Away From Here
No Time For Tears
Sing When You're In Love
This Song
Be Somebody
We'll Live And Die In These Towns
Happy Birthday Jane
You're Not Alone

The Enemy Hit Back At Rumours

Tom Clarke has set the record straight, quashing rumours the band weren't up to it. Speaking to Radio 1 and reported by Damian Jones:

The Enemy's frontman Tom Clarke has hit back over claims the band pulled out of supporting Oasis at Wembley Stadium because they couldn't be bothered.

The Coventry trio said that they were forced to pull out of their performance on July 11 because their singer Tom fell ill.

"The fact of the matter is we smashed a hole in Wembley for two nights and we couldn't do one because I had a reaction to some lillies," he told Radio 1.

"It's pathetic that in 2009 a man can't walk past a lily without getting a sore throat but what can you do?"

This is the second time The Enemy have pulled out of a support slot during Oasis' UK tour.

Last month, Clarke's band were forced to cancel a performance at Heaton Park because he was struck down with food poisoning.

Reports at the time suggested that the singer believed Oasis were "past it", prompting Liam Gallagher to criticise the band on his Twitter page.

But Clarke was quick to point out that he was misunderstood.

Now, Clarke has hit back and launched a scathing attack on music journalists.

"There's not that many interesting bands around at the minute," he said.

"There's us, Kasabian, Oasis, maybe Muse but to be honest they've been quiet for a bit, Reverened And The Makers and that's pretty much it.

"So all these petty little music journalists have to sit in a room and decide what they're going to write about and normally they pick on the exciting bands and then try and make it more exciting.

"Why don’t they just write Oasis, Kasabian and The Enemy smashed a hole in Wembley and if you go down there just off the A40 you'll find it?"

The Enemy are due to perform at this year's Ibiza Rocks line-up on 4 August.

Interview: The Enemy @ RockCorps Manchester

The Enemy performed in front of 3,000 volunteers in Manchester on July 13, each of whom had given at least four hours of their time to help local communities . Tom Clarke spoke about the bands involvement with the charity gig for Orange RockCorp explaining why they liked the concept, "When we first heard of it, the whole gist of it, that you have to earn your way into the gig you can't just buy a ticket. It puts everyone on a completely level playing field, regardless of how easy it is for you normally to go too gigs or how hard it is for you to go too gigs. It puts everyone right back down at the bottom and says 'right, you've got to contribute to go there', I think that's a really good way of approaching it. It's a really worthwhile thing."

Tom remained true to his roots, whether performing at Wembley or Apollo saying, "It's an honour to be able to play to any audience, fact of the matter is - we are three normal lads from Cov, every time you step out on stage it's an honour to be able to do what you love doing."

The Enemy were truly the rock band of the night as this Female First review highlights, "After[N-Dubz] came the obligatory rock band - it was called Orange RockCorps after all - in the form of the hottest new rock band on the scene, The Enemy. I was quite shocked to see that many of the fans that were crammed into the Apollo knew a few of The Enemy’s songs, considering the line-up was mainly pop music and the band have only recently been getting loads of radio overage.

Acting very much like their new celeb best mates in Oasis, the Enemy has unrivalled stage presence, despite there only being three of them on stage."

The Enemy and Lady Gaga Reward Volunteers

Here is what NME magazine had to say about The Enemy's performance at the Orange Rockcorps event (and not even the slightest feud between Alex Zane!) :

The Enemy and Lady GaGa were among the acts who played a charity gig at the Manchester Apollo yesterday (July 13) to say thank you to 3,000 of the city's volunteer workers.

The show, staged by Orange Rockcorps, was only open to fans who had given up four hours to work in community projects across Manchester.

Mainly playing songs from their 2007 debut album 'We’ll Live And Die In These Towns', Tom Clarke and co got the crowd going with tracks including 'Had Enough' and 'Away From Here'.

Fresh from supporting Oasis, Clarke even found time to dedicate their final song 'You're Not Alone' to the evening's headliner Lady GaGa, declaring: "I think she's a bit rock 'n' roll, fair play to her - this one's for her!"

Talking to NME.COM after his set, Clarke praised the volunteers, explaining: "Orange RockCorps is right up our street. As a band, we passionately believe in helping people to put a bit back into their community. The way you have to earn your ticket makes young people realise you've got to earn things in life. Plus, we love Manchester and love playing the Apollo."

He added: "Its always an honour to step on stage and play for your fans, after all we're just there normal lads from Coventry, but tonight’s going to be extra special, because everyone here's had to earn their ticket."

The Enemy played:

'Had Enough'
'Aggro'
'Away From Here'
'No Time For Tears'
'You're Not Alone'

The Enemy Gig For Charity Workers

Fresh from their support slot with Oasis and Kasabian in front of 50,000 people at Wembley, The Enemy return to Manchester today (13 July) for a charity gig in front of 3,000.

This is a gig with a difference as no-one could buy a ticket or win a ticket to this gig at Manchester's Apollo. All those in attendance will have earned a place at the Orange Rockcorps gig by giving at least four hours of their time to local projects that will help transform local areas.

The Enemy will be joining Lady Gaga and N-Dubz for this very special gig, providing proof that helping others brings rewards.
