We spoke to some fans who have been here since 5am and others who have travelled all the way from London to see their idols perform at the historic venue.

They were outside the entrance near Pride and Provenance, and there were more by the entrance to Halifax Central Library.

We saw around 20 fans this lunchtime, with more arriving.
