| Mark Ronson plays debut US live show Producer du jour Mark Ronson played his debut US show to a packed crowd at the Highline Ballroom in Manhattan last night (July 11). Although a renowned local DJ for the past ten years, the New York native admitted he was "shitting himself" at the prospect of playing his home town with a full band. Playing guitar for most of the set, Ronson also utilised the talents of a seven-piece backing group to reproduce the tracks on his album 'Version', released this week in the US. A string of special guests reprised their roles on the album including Daniel Merriweather, Kenna, Tiggers and Santo Gold. Rappers Saigon and Wale also joined Ronson, the latter of whom provided vocals to 'Toxic' and an impressive interpretation of the hip-hop staple 'Apache'. Alex Greenwald guested on the cover of Radiohead's 'Just' during which the Phantom Planet singer crowd-surfed across the front section of the audience. Ronson told the audience that Phantom Planet's 'California' is his favourite song about Los Angeles before the pair proceeded to duet on a slow-burning version of the 'The OC'-anthem. |

Prior to the full gig, Dirty Pretty Things played a three song set in the atrium of the prison. The set was Bloody Thirsty Bastards, new song Come Closer and single Deadwood . Singer Carl Barat was forthright in his support of the charity Wasted Youth : "There were 67 suicides last year in prison in Britain and already there has been 59 this year, we need to do our bit to fight the depressions and demons that young men face. Suicide is still the biggest killer of men under 35." Taking to the chapel stage with a yell of "Awright", Dirty Pretty Things tore through a full 45 minute set comprised of: Chinese Dogs Gentry Cove Wondering Doctors And Dealers Deadwood Come Closer Blood Thirsty Bastards You Fucking Love It Plastic Hearts The Enemy Gin And Milk Bang Bang You're Dead Before 'Come Closer' , guitarist Anthony Rossomando announced - to rousing cheers from the inmates: "It's not about building prisons, it's about rehabilitation." The band received a standing ovation from the band at the close of the set Supporting band The Enemy played a 30 minute set - and also received a standing ovation. Their set was: 40 Days Away From Here Pressure Don't Shed A Tear Aggro Had Enough It's Not OK You're Not Alone Pentonville Prison was where Barat 's former Libertines' bandmate Pete Doherty was held in remand in 2006 while charged with driving under the influence in December 2005.
