Lineup 2015

[Babyquack]

Just 'cos they're playing 2.5k capacity venues doesn't mean it'll be like when they used to play 2.5k capacity venues.

yeah but it's the setlist they'll play that I'm going for tbh. As I'm sure it'll be heavy on the old seeing as it's two weeks before the Glasgow shows, it'll be brilliant nonetheless

I have no point of reference so to me, it'll be exactly like that

because that's what it'll be

Prepare for soft acoustic ballads and a shirt.

And clean shaven

[dentalplan]

That'd be too far. They'd get booed off and their fanbase would be in tatters.

Someone I know wrote a blog entry about Simon shaving his beard off and how it signifies their music becoming more mainstream and bland, and complained about them losing their "prog" roots. This person's never listened to a prog band in their life.

Already seen them do an acoustic set and it was mighty awesome. So I'd still take that tbh

Is that person who I think it is?

Saw biffy in a 1500 (I think) capacity last year, exactly the same set as reading basically. But it was magical

Some people are fucking idiots, writing a blog doesn't somehow validate their opinions.

[dentalplan]

They DO like beards at R+L though. Last year had the likes of Biffy, SOAD, Deftones and Frank Turner to appease people (Matt Davies particularly enjoyed beardy Zane announcing SOAD) and the year before had Kasabian, Foos, Shikari and Black Keys. Fast forward to this year the legacy of Reading Festival had been destroyed by all the clean shaven-ness. The place would go fucking mad if Melvin booked ZZ Top.

HAHAHA I forgot you know them, but yes

[the wonderwhy]

I think Nick O'Malley had the beard quota covered this year, looked like he hadn't shaved for months.

[Babyquack]

HAHAHA I forgot you know them, but yes

Thought so haha

Yeah but he's just the bassist.

I bet he doesn't even know when and where they're playing.

[FloorFiller]

info of the third Foos show coming out at 4pm. probably gonna be another London one but fingers crossed for something up North

[Babyquack]

Although I really do want to see Foo's in such an intimate space (who doesn't?!), I kinda do wish the next date is up north - I hate it when massive bands come to the UK and neglect huge areas of fans. Sure, they'll be back but it'd be nice to see them spread out the small shows a bit.

2nd Biffy ticketsale in a row sold out in less than a minute, surely with that demand they'll play at a UK festival next year

[Yellow_Fellow]

Aye, surely

Looks like somebody called that Royal Blood Brighton homecoming thing. They'll probably do that Christmas XFM thingy too I guess.
