In short : ****ing incredible.
Right so here's my review of the gig (this may be long so sorry):
I've seen Example live 5 times now and this was defiantly the best time! I rate this gig as on par with Lady GaGa (yes it was that good). Example really does have the best lights in the world! Sorry but I didn't take any pictures but my dad (who was sitting, I was standing) took a video of Let's Be ****ing Stupid which shows how amazing the lights and fire was. Example's vocals were amazing (other than during the chorus of Come Taste The Rainbow) and he really did get the whole crowd bouncing and moshing.
Setlist (Contains reviews of each track live):
1)
Kickstarts - One of my least favourite Example singles yet it was an amazing opener 9/10.
2)
Won't Go Quietly - Amazing live! Example dropped a remix at the end of the song when he shouted 'Anyone been to an Example gig before? All we do is bounce around like lunatics' and everyone went mental 10/10.
3)
Sea The Sea - Although this song gets the crowd going, I feel as if it's just too old and not that great. 5/10
4)
Stay Awake - Incredible performance of the song and EG dropped a remix at the end which got everybody bouncing 9/10.
5)
Come Taste The Rainbow - Example performed the rap and it sounded amazing, but unfortunately the vocals sounded really weak on the chorus and this let the song down. 5/10.
6)
Midnight Run - Great live, and the Flux Pavilion remix is dropped at the end, and the crowd went crazy as smoke was blasting up during the remix. 8/10
7) Playing In The Shadows - Example's vocals were crisp and this track sounded great live. EG encouraged mosh pits shouting 'larger circles'. And the song was extended at the end and sounded even more amazing than the studio version 10/10.
8)
Under The Influence - The lights were mental during this track going everywhere. It's just a shame example doesn't perform the second verse (Rap) of the song 9/10.
9)
Shot Yourself In The Foot Again - This track was essentially combined with Under The Influence so everybody just including example just went mental bouncing up and down to the dubstep drop. 10/10
10)
Close Enemies - Wow I was really impressed with this song live. Example performed the original and then the Jakob Lidelhom remix where he and the rest of the crowd bounced like nutters. 10/10
11)
Whisper - I was impressed with Example's vocals on this one just him and a mic stand and then at the end of the track him and everybody else bouncing like crazy. 10/10
12) Let's be ****ing Stupid - The dance (kind of breakdown) ending of the track was taken off, yet it was still amazing. Fire blasted all over the stage every time the track dropped. 9/10
13)
Hooligans - I'm sick of this song live and I feel as if Example is as well, he doesn't seem to give it as much energy as the rest of the tracks. Yet the remix at the end of track was amazing 7/10.
14)
Watch The Sun Come Up - Example dedicated this track to his fiancée Erin and told everyone who was there with a partner to put there arms around them, it was really cute and lots of girls on shoulders in the audience. 8/10
15)
We'll Be Coming Back - Example told the crowd that this was there moment and it was a crazy song to go wild too. And everyone did go wild, Example's vocals sounded great even though he was bouncing haha. 10/10
16)
Say Nothing - Example thanked everybody for coming, and then sang Say Nothing his vocals weren't great but everybody sang along and then he placed the Hardwell remix at the end and everybody bounced along. He then left the stage.
17)
Natural Disaster(start of encore) - Everybody went mental for the encore, and example certainly delivered. Everybody went crazy as EG once again asked for larger circles 10/10.
18)
The Way - Everybody took out phones and lights for this track, and Example just sang and bounced with a mic stand it was great 8/10.
19)
Perfect Replacement - This was the track I was most looking forward to hearing and my God Example delivered. Fire went everywhere on stage and the EG got the whole audience bouncing like lunatics 10/10.
20)
Changed The Way You Kiss Me- Everybody screamed when the start of this track came on, and Example got everybody bouncing on the second drop excaliming 'all right Birmingham, let's ****ing have it' then when everybody thought it was over Example said he wanted to do Karaoke with us and we all sang the first verse again, the song then remixed like the Chuckie remix and when it dropped the lights went crazy. Confeti fell from the sky (well cheap confeti it was just red and white paper haha)
)
If he wants to sing an "old" song then "Last Ones Standing" is the right choice 
"Perfect Replacement"
