"So... Give It A Name..."

...Did anyone other me and HE go?

Any way. 'Twas good.

Me Without You - Was good. If only for laughing at the singer.

Fightstar - I only heard these as I was lining up at the bar for their entire set. They sounded OK though. Nothing all that special. But listenable.

Mae - I can't remember these very well. But they weren't all that brilliant.

The Lucky Nine - First band I was looking forward to. And I was right to look forward to them. They were great. Not many strong songs, but those that were, were brilliant. Hibernate still being my favourite. Shall buy their album when it comes out.

Alexisonfire - One word to describe these live : Jism. Very definitely the best band I've seen live. Go see them.

Rise Against - Aaah. My favourite band. Not perfect live. But they played Dead Ringer, which made me surprised and very happy. No Like The Angel or Broken English though :( Probably would have enjoyed them more if I hadn't have killed my self to AOF previously.

Coheed & Cambria - Naff.

Finch - Really don't live up to their recorded stuff. Nothing special again.

Funeral For A Friend - Very good live. Great fun.

Brilliant day I'd say. Although I would very much like the ability to move my neck back. Owwey :(

Good call, Rise Against albums are great.

Can't wait for the new FFAF one.

I didn't go, but I did listen to the highlights.

It certainly convinced me to get Rise Aginst's and Funeral For A Friends' albums. Top stuff. :)

heh, I love it all :-p

The Explosion are good live, saw 'em when they supported New Found Glory earlier this year.

The S/T is better IMO. Still, it's your opinion

Watch Out.

And heard a few MP3s off the self-titled one I think. Left me totally cold I'm afraid.

Has anyone got the Explosion album btw? Heard some decent reports and they're playing London soon so I was thinking bout picking up their debut CD.

I didn't really like them at first, and just listened through their albums a fw more times, and they really grow on you. Then after letting them grow for a few months, you see them live, and it's the most amazing thing you ever did see.

Which album did you buy?

Well, basically, they rule!

Yep, Rise Against were great. Not the best band live to be honest but their songs were good enough to pull it off. Was feeling poorly but very happy I saw them :)

But, I've bought the album, now I've seen them live and I STILL don't get all the fuss about Alexisonfire...

Alexisonfire vs. Rise Against... amazing. Had a great time, more information when I'm awake :]

they're definately worth seeing live. I saw them at the Astoria on one of the first times they were here and they were amazing.

Poison the well still give the best live shows in my opinion.
