  1. anything that involves oceansize in some form has to be good. i'll come
  2. I sadly missed the prodigy as i went to slipknot. I really thought slipknot were pretty average, which is a shame as i was really excited to see them. I'd forgotten about killswitch - they were immense, and howard is a brilliant frontman, so much presence and clearly a nice bloke too. Pendulum were also really boring i thought. I had hoped they'd be good but it afer a few tracks the same drumbeat and annoying keyboard tone fronted by a tim westwood-a-like gets pretty old.
  3. I haven't heard it yet. Can't wait. Idlewild get a bad rep these days as past it from some quarters; on the contrary their last album was great. They have matured well like a fine wine, and are particularly excellent live. Also Roddy is sexy as fuck.
  4. who went then? Im just back, discussion thread time? in my opinion: limp bizkit = best band of the festival slipknot = major disapointment. Sloppy, especially joey jordison. Only played 1.5 hours, which is very poor for a headliner. I expected 2 or 2.5 Other than that major highlights for me were fightstar, chris cornel, papa roach, architects, trivum (i wanted to hate them, but they were great). Journey aswell - cheesetastic. Other lowlights - down (boring) devil driver (boring) and black stone cherry (pub rock, not really sure what the fuss is about) I didn't see faith no more, i was rather ill at the time.
  5. ...just a wee note to say that if you are going to this gig, and fancy having a look at the gig in tunnel 2, it'll only be a quid to do so.
  6. bump. folks this is going to be good. inches from the mainland especially need to be seen!!
  7. this is tommorrow peoples. There will be a few more passes going around at the door, alternitevely pm me and i can guestlsit you. 9pm doors. free gig - can't argue with that.
  8. eleven:eleven added iname on myspaz recently, so i took a look - the recordings aren't amazing, but they certainly would be worth a look live when i get the chance
  9. For all you fans of overdriven melodic post-rock - Fudge and Snafu present, at their Black Tooth Rock Lounge night,Monday 8th June Dundee's SPYAMP formed in 1999. The band were T-Break winners in 2001 and followed this with support slots with Oxes, Tribute to Nothing and 99, and were recorded live by Radio 1 Session in Scotland supporting Biffyclyro. Debut album 'GTi' was released on Pet Piranha Records late in 2005. RSI caused the band to take a break for a couple of years and cancel a UK tour, but Spyamp returned to play Manchesters 'In the City' and record a second session for BBC Scotland. This gig will mark the release of their second album. Local support from INAME and MOLINEUX (ex retreat and current clearer the sky) This is this monday, for free, at snafu. Passes for the bands - just message us.

  17. meh. it was great where i was standing. And as for the bassist being rubbish - seemed okay to me. And i don't really care what she looks like...some of my favourite musicians are mingers.
  18. What gig were you at man? I don't think my vitriol dated at all. Infact, their stuff possibly sounds more at home in 2009 than it did before. And the new songs were so good: some technical and interesting stuff being played.
  19. The sound for my vitriol was immense! My vitriol were absolutely brilliant. The album is great, but live they are so much 'fuller' and bigger, and at times, dreamy.
  20. To be fair to hatton - he fought well in round two (other than getting knocked out obviously)
  21. I don't think he should fight again. I think he's perfectly capable of winning titles at light-welter; but he doesn't need to. He's fought 47 times; lost only twice to the best boxers in the world at the time. Nothing to prove. He's rich, has a smokin fiance, has a kid, and has the framework to go ahead and build his gym - no need to box.
