If anyone wants to come to gig tonight and needs a pair of tickets, we've hidden a couple somewhere pertinent to this forum that you know and love.  I can say no more.

Biffy Clyro

Just seen that on twitter,
are they the only two hidden or are there more throughout the day?

Though seeing as I have my tickets i'm not too bothered.

Cannot wait for tonight!

Cheeky few pints in Sir Dans beforehand then to the Oasis at about 7!

Yeah the only 2.  Doors at 7, pure love the support on at 8, biffy at 9.  Few new songs in the set as well.

Sweet, just been to the CG and tickets are gone..

Just popped to the Oasis to pick my ticket up, there's already a few nutters queuing up.

Biffy Clyro suck oversized eagle bollock, that is all.

Yep.  Few out the back when the band arrive waiting for autographs.  Ive never understood that bollocks of hanging around way before a gig.  Go to a pub.

You're entitled to your opinion.  You're wrong but you're entitled to it.

Need to collect my tickets at the door, how long is the queue likely to be, does everyone have to pick up?

They've got shit all on Megadeth :D

I've got to pick mine up. Fancy having a few beers before hand to get in the mood! Get in there for 7.30-7.45 ish probs.

 :D - Music is all about opinions, obviously. Really dislike them... Although I admit that massive eagle balls probably dont feature in their rider requests!

 ;D

Yeah fair do's.  Im just glad that a band I like are doing well.  Obviously they'll have a few haters (as I believe is young peoples speak) along the way.  I like them and have been working with them for 5 or 6 years so I'm delighted they're coming to my manor (more youth speak).  After 3 days of working on rap shit, im really looking forward to something good.

Must be good to see something you've worked hard on coming off, fair play! I wouldnt say I hate them, just think they are a wee bit overated, that paired with the fact my brother loves them probably leads to my unwarranted dislike for them... Better than a lot other shite out there at the moment. Especially the rap shit.

This was the rap shit I had to deal with the other night in London

I prefer my shows to not have several brawls in them.

Oh dear. So what do you do then Nash? A tour manager or something? Totally oblivious due to being relatively new on here...

Nash is a teamster, one of the best.

Artists impression.

Promoters rep.  Work for a couple of big promoters (SJM Concerts and Live Nation).  Run the day basically.  Gigs from 200 clubs to 12k arenas.  

Bit of accounting, bit of logistics, bit of production, general organising really.

Stomach is most like the one on the right, hair like the one in the middle, glasses the one on the left.

The one on the right is logistics, the one in the middle is production and accounting is on the left.

Together they form: General Organising

They started off strong but success went to their heads a bit.

Okay, due to a last minute drop out I have a spare ticket. Need to collect as noted above but can meet someone outside venue, £25 is face value but nearest offer most likely fine as it's going to waste otherwise.

They look just like our roadies and sound guy too. Although they all have far too much hair for me :D

Tickets need to be collected from the front desk. Don't know if you can just walk straight up and then join the queue, or whether you just need to get in the queue.

GK_NASH - Any idea on the set list tonight or is private info?

I do, but its private.  There are about 4 new songs on there and it should run about 90 minutes.

Fair enough! Worth an ask. Can't wait.... :o)

Biffy are a bit 70's rock for me.I'd rather watch the rap watch fight.

the specials at Cardiff was the same.....scrapping all over the show.

Me and Victor Mildew held firm.

ASAP Rocky is pure turd.

Well im not disagreeing.

GK_NASH is there any chance you sort my misses out with a t-shirt? She's desperate for one but they won't take card! If you could help.... My number is. Give me a text or ring. I can sort you out via transfer etc

Haha number saved.

Hope you turn your phone off at night ;)

What size and design.  Ill see what I can do.

Haha... Save it! I'm good for bum sex and football and thats about it!

Really like Biffy Clyro but the fact that I had work, meant that I wouldn't have been able to drink copious amounts of alcohol whilst watching a gig which is against my beliefs. I also detest the Oasis as a music venue.

Biffy Clyro the other year at the Royal Albert Hall was brilliant though.

I'd heard bad things about the acoustics in the Oasis before, but the sound was pretty good last night. My ears are still ringing, so it was definitely loud enough.

Ring you later.

Absolutely amazing night!
Best sound I have heard from any band at the oasis, great atmosphere too.

Agree about the sound. It was the best there i have heard from any band. Great set as well. New stuff sounds good and they dropped a few classics as well. Not bad considering they were rusty (according to them anyway).I also thought Pure Love were pretty good too. Top night.
