  • .

    .

  • Cancer Bats

    seems an odd choice of support. Can't quite put my finger on it. May have to go to Leeds Met just so I can see Cancer Bats again.

  • Bridgend, hey?

    Statistically at least two of them will be dead before this show gets on the road.

    • wish i'd seen them a couple of years ago

      i liked the first 2 albums. the 3rd was appalling though. heard the new song, it sounds alright

    • MEGA :D

    • *something about the first few eps and album being better*

      Although I am tempted by the London date...

      • didnt you like the 3rd album??

        • I'll be in Oxford

          If only for Attack Attack and Cancer Bats

        • They're playing a gig here* on the 10th

          To help raise money for the Samaritans to help people who are suicidal.

          I've been asked to be part of the crowd control team. GAY!

          *Bridgend

        • I heard 2 songs off it.

          Ultra-lame.

    • random thing

      their website is www.ffaf.co.uk not funeralforafriend

      anyways, i shall be at the forum. last album was a bit meh, like the 2 new songs i've heard though

      • anyone at KCLSU last night

        basically a greatest hits set and was fucking incredible.

        • really? RE:^^

          that pleases me as i think i may head to Newport tommorrow to see them. much from the new/3rd album? Casually/Seven&FourWays > everything else

          • A gig in Aberystwyth?

            Wow!

          • from what i can remember

            and in no order:

            Out Of Reach
            Into Oblivion
            Juneau
            Escape Artists Never Die
            Storytelling
            She Drove Me to Daytime Television Streetcar
            Roses for the Dead
            Hospitality, History
            10:45 Amsterdam Conversations
            Beneath The Burning Tree
            Waterfront Danceclub
            You Can't See The Wolves For All the trees (or something like that - a new song)
