This review is particularly special because it's based on personal and genuine experiences from the last two Keane gigs in Portugal, a few weeks a go and as explained above was co-written with the Portuguese fan club - Keane Portugal.

- October 20th, 2012 - Campo Pequeno, Lisbon
"A few days ago, Keane returned to Portugal for the third time this year - after the showcase in May and the gig in Cascais Music Festival.
At 9pm, the crowd welcomed the opening band Zulu Winter. The British band was created a year ago and opened the night on Campo Pequeno. In half-hour they presented their debut album Language, including songs like Silver Tongue and We Should Be Swimming, besides new songs.
After all, the band left Portugal with a few more fans.

At exactly 10pm, Keane were welcomed by their anxious fans, leaded by the singer/frontman Tom Chaplin and followed by Tim Rice-Oxley - songwriter and keyboardist, Richard Hughes - drummer and Jesse Quin - bass guitarist."

- October 21th, 2012 - Coliseu do Porto
"Porto’s Coliseum sold out to see Keane. Finally, after three years away from the city – the last show was in Festival Marés Vivas, they return and what a return!
Since very early in the morning and during the entire day, fans were arriving to the Coliseum’s door and not even the rain was enough to break them down. Around 8pm, the street was full of very anxious and loving people eager to come in and begin the party.
Around the place it was possible to read several posters with puns like “I’m keen on Keane”. On the front row it was possible to read “Always On The Road With Keane”, and we believe because we’ve seen this poster on other Keane shows. Also there was someone who hold a welcoming message “Welcome back to Porto”. Yes, their fans missed them a lot."
