I've seen no posting commenting on this show which makes me wonder. Is there an entire universe of gig going punters out there who don't post messages on Ab-Mus?

I thought Foals were ace. I liked their jerkiness and circleness.

he liked 'the way they stood' graeme did

yep, was it because of their Jools Holland appearance, or their (apparant, i didnt know this) lots of Radio 1 airplay, that all those 400+ punters came along? good on Foals for getting that exposure, its how bands 'get big' i suppose...and yes im guessing there were a lot of people there who havent even heard of abdn music

You can't beat a good bit of standing.

I sadly couldn't attend the gig, but they put on one hell of an in-store at 1up

well, whilst you were all enjoying Foals I was one of 12 people in Tunnels watching The Ads... Who had originally booked Moshulu but were turfed out. They could've shared a bill. Shame there was hardly any people at the gig. They're good! =]

I don't like Foals.
...but this is based on one recording, their performance on that Skins Party thing and one youtube video.

Based on the above, and having seen them at Moshulu and earlier on in the year, I don't like Foals either.

I hate Foals, they're dire, they seem to receive some credibility purely by associating with Dave Sitek.

[rondon]

Nonsense! Foals are fantastic without having associates! I thought the gig was brilliant! Their chat was a bit guff though. Can't wait for the album.

I reiterate what i said in the other thread;

I really don't understand the hype around these guys.

The kids should listen to Don Cab instead.
