JLS at Birmingham LG arena - Review

Dressed as futuristic gladiators, JLS quite literally descended on Birmingham's LG arena.

And with a note, word and beat-perfect performance, the fabulous foursome gave the crowd everything they were screaming for – and then some.

Sporting everything from red leather to LED Matrix-style suits, the former X Factor runners-up led fans through a string of hits including Beat Again, Everybody In Love, The Club Is Alive and new single Proud when they performed as part of their 4th Dimension tour.

Fireworks, glitter and a floating steel pyramid all made an appearance in the fast-paced two-hour show.

With slick choreography, epic sets and 18,000 adoring fans they proved winning really isn't everything when it comes to making the most of the X Factor experience.
