Arctic Monkeys perform two huge shows this week in Finsbury Park, and in North London, things are gearing up for some of the biggest gigs of 2014 taking place in the capital. See images below.
The stage backs onto Seven Sisters Road in Finsbury Park, and various images show the stage in various states of construction, including one late-night shot from XFM, showing the illuminated rig at twilight. It's just a stage, but it still looks pretty damn impressive. See photos of the Arctic Monkeys stage below.
