A little like Aston Villa,
‘Dirty Sexy Money’ is an-
other winner. The hit is
dirty, sexy, dancey, jivey
and everything you want
in a song. It gets you mov-
ing and grooving along.
‘The Ol’ Switcheroo’ sees
Adam and bassist Jed
switch positions, and ev-
eryone sway their arms
from side to side. New
song ‘Can’t Stop Talking’
is a quirky gem, with
Luke’s vocals giving off a
70s retro vibe, while the
title track of The Struts lat-
est album, ‘Pretty Vi-
cious’, sees a smoother,
evocative tone. The band
save ‘In Love With A
Camera’, from their
‘Young & Dangerous
album, ‘Put Your Money
On Me’, and all-time
favourite, and the song
that first brought the band
to our attention, ‘Could
Have Been Me’, to wrap
up the set. “I think I’ve
cracked the code,” says
Luke, before telling every-
one in the balcony to
stand up for the final num-
ber.
