Gordon from Bloc Party's diary entry...
Hear what their tourmates have to say about t'biff...
Now, i've never really seen the fuss about BP - they're not bad, I just never saw the fuss, bar a couple of particularly stunning songs. But,
"Making this tour more enjoyable is the presence of one of our favourite bands full stop, Biffy Clyro. These guys couldn't have a sunnier, more enthusiastic attitude towards this life and of course there's the fucking guns-cocked majesty of their songs to boot. I cannot overstate what a pleasure it is to be playing with them. The only drawback for me is watching them trying to condense the sheer scope of what they're capable of into forty minutes every night. If you aren't moved by 'Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies' then, sir or madam, allow me to show you the door."

Radio One Session
On Thursday April 26th, Biffy joined Colin Murray on his "In the Company of..." segment, where the boys chatted a lot about Puzzle and other stuff, and played back tracks they recorded earlier on at Maida Vale.
Tracks played were Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies, Saturday Superhouse and Justboy.
Download the whole session here, with each interview segment and track as separate tracks.
Keep checking Biffier for proper hosting and individual track downloads...

Awesome news for Under 18s...
From the official site and message board - this bad-boys getting kept for posterity.
Good evening folks.
For those of you on the East Coast of Scotland, we've got some good news for you...
As some of you will be aware, our show in Edinburgh Potterrow, was closed to anyone under 18.
This was not something we agreed with or consented to, yet still the venue insisted, and would not bow to pressure from ourselves, our booking agent, and promoter.
Rather than move the show to a larger venue that would allow all ages, we want to preserve the intimacy afforded at Potterrow, but also give younger fans opportunity to see the band without having to travel long distances.
As such, we've added an extra show, on June 2nd, at the smaller 400-capacity Edinburgh Exchange.
Tickets for this show will be available from 9am on Wednesday 18th April from the following outlet
ticketmaster - 0870 1690100 / gigsinscotland.com / ticketmaster.co.uk
Whilst it's hard to ensure all tickets go to those who missed out at Potterrow, we hope this will give you enough time to let the news filter around, and to get yourselves into position come Wednesday.
In addition to the online tickets, 150 tickets will be available over the counter at Ripping Records in Edinburgh.
These tickets will ONLY be available to people under 18.
Some sort of ID may be required if you look older than 18.
We hope this goes some way to make it up to those who thought they would miss out on seeing the band in May.x
