Astoria, London

Simply amazing. Barrowlands, eat your heart out.


Photos and whatnot to follow. Some of the highlights were - breaking a string during the last bit of 57 - some AWESOME rockstar shapes being thrown by Simon and James during Wave Upon Wave, Simon getting semi-naked during Kids from Kibble (what was all the stuff getting thrown on the stage?), absolutely beautiful, deafening sing-a-longs, and most especially, the intensely loud booing at being ushered out sans encore because G-A-Y was on afterwards.

Rawk.

Astoria eat your heart out more like! No doubt Biffy rocked you guys down there, but nothing beats a home crowd, and you know it.

Well, that's exactly the point I'm making - this is what the hometown show SHOULD have been like. I was at both, and this was miles better. :)
