Kaiser Chiefs last night at Mallorca Rocks

The Kaiser Chiefs played Mallorca Rocks last night in the Majorca beach resort of Magaluf. The Chiefs were only the second band since the opening party with Ed Sheeran three weeks ago. Since then the crowds have been treated to the likes of Maverick Sabre and Chase and Status but this was the first full band with guitars and vocals and it was a band who are making something of a come back after a long hiatus.

The flags symbolise the Moors and Christians festival and show that the town is in preparation to celebrate their victory for another year.
