Sun 27 Apr – Biffy Clyro, Yves Klein Blue
Now I'm not a good journalist or anything, but this concert (I went with
xlephierprime and
Tau-Neutrino) is definitely worthy of mention. (And 50 other last.fmers are thinking the same thing right now...)
The show started with
Yves Klein Blue, who were OK, but incredibly loud. Then Biffy came on (the drummer and guitarist both shirtless) starting with
Saturday Superhouse, which was awesome, but I didn't actually realise what song it was until the second chorus, at which point I started singing the two lines I knew and jumping up and down a lot.
The awesome thing about Biffy is that they sound pretty much exactly the same live as they do in their recorded stuff, but they have pretty lights and you can jump up and down without scaring your cat. An interesting note is that Simon Neil played standing in front of his amp and speaker, which would really REALLY hurt.
They played a lot of songs I hadn't heard, and I don't actually know the lyrics to quite a lot of songs, but they did play
Who's Got A Match?,
Love Has A Diameter,
Living Is A Problem Because Everything Dies and finished the set with
Now I'm Everyone.
The encore consisted of a guitar and vocal solo version of
Machines, followed by the incredibly fantastic mosh song,
Glitter and Trauma, which
xlephierprime and I had been screaming for the entire night.
Overall, it was PURE UNADULTERATED ROCK, and I will not be talking for about a week, as the awesomeness of
Biffy Clyro has melted my vocal chords.
MON THE BIFFY!
