2009-05-28 18.36 UPDATE: We have a winner!! Big congratulations to renee.0311.508 for spotting that it's Angel of Harlem by U2. We're very impressed. And, um, well done to AmeliaBaybee95 for attempting to type out the name of every single song from the 1980s, following our clue earlier.

Big thanks to Jesse for filming this and sending it over. First person to get the correct answer in the comments below gets big love from the km.com massive. It's a bit trickier than the last one, which was identified as U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday by markeane in about two seconds flat.

cleveland / sunday / 1948

the helio sequence have just finishing an outrageously good set for the audience at the 18th annual great american cook off, here in sunny cleveland. i've just had a vegetarian dinner, but the smell of the ribs was pretty amazing! went for a wander around the festival, and the tower mall, and met some very friendly keane fans, some of whom had driven many hours to get here. i hope you like ribs too, then it would be a great day out. i'm always amazed by the distances people travel to see bands in america and canada - i guess the countries are just so huge that the distances seem small. it's not uncommon for people to drive a thousand miles to a show. i am hugely flattered, and honoured! to put it into context, driving from land's end to john o'groats (the longest journey from the south west of england to the north east of scotland) is 874 miles. you cannot drive 1000 miles in the uk without having to turn around and head back to where you began!

today has been fun. definitely an insight into a great american day out. cleveland is a very industrial looking city, and i'll try to get some pictures of the steel structures that dominate the landscape - bridges and flyovers seem to be everywhere. in the meantime, here's what i've been up to today, and i've put a couple more toronto pics below too.

jack on the bone ribs - cooked in jack daniel's... sure smelled good!
