what an ace gig, we were going mental

i had an absolutely amazing weekend, almost every band i seen were great, heres my run down. Sat The Rifles: fucking ace band, really like them, theyve got really good singles and they warmed up the crowd really well for being the first band on king tuts. Guillemots: worst band of the weekend, wish i went to see wolfmother instead. The Cribs: I love the cribs, basically the same set as they normally do but was really good as always. Maximo Park: Great dancing by paul smith and the keyboard player, good laugh. THE VIEW: Best atmosphere of the weekend, crazy dedicated fans, there gonna be massive. Tracks available at 2thumbs.com/forum Ordinary Boys: not exactly overwhelming Charlatans: same as above Weller: caught his last two songs, town called malice was really good Sunday: didnt get into the arena til about 3 as we went swimming Delays: great festival band Maccabees: Very tight, i like this band alot We are scientists: Tight and humorous as usual, 3rd time ive seen them this year (will be 4 by october) Dirty Pretty Things: Amazing, 3rd time seeing them this year, love them so much, great set (although i wanted to hear france), caught gary's drumstick, adds to my collection of libertines/dpt memorabilia Arctic Monkeys: About 8 miles away from the stage but they sounded good, good setlist Strokes: quality, good choice of songs, knew every word to every song. Fratellis: insane, lost my shoes The Who: wow, they looked like they were really enjoying themselves. Best new band: the view Best set: Dirty Pretty Things Best headliner: The Who Maddest gig: fratellis/the view

seen them twice now, got about 15 of their tracks, and videos of them live, they are absolutely amazing, def the most surprising gig at T. Their moving to helter skelter apparently

no doubt this will be madness again, october 27th, tickets onsale monday apparently

everyone prepared for T??

its a shame tho that most people that would go to this will be at t in the park

weve hired our own bus, theres 60 of us. Including in our ticket is lots of beer, wine, jd, vodka, tequilla and sambuca. Our luggage compartments above our heads are being filled with booze, no joke

i cant wait, actually cant wait, the line ups far from great but i love the camping bit, theres a bus load of around 60 of us going down, its gonna be ace. Im sure theres a few bands on their that u like and if u dont like the campsite theres something seriously wrong with you. Wish people would stop complaining, theres people willing to pay a crazy amount of money to go so count yourself lucky

im so tempted to see them at t in the park and throw rocks at them

dresden sounded ace at the view, ill go to this

fucking tout

nice, thats like the 20th ace gig in october, why is october always like this

mite purchase their ep then before it sells out and ends up on ebay for a ridiculous price

i agree that you cant blame myspace for this. It was the girls choice to meet the guy, its the girls stupidity that they have to blame.

also yep.

what a great gig, was really hungover but had a good time. Anyone else there?

i know, so are the fratellis, agree their better than the kooks tho

least they can play guitar

its a sad day when keane are playing the aecc

crazy....
