^^haha my brother pisses me off by saying 'which ones biffy and which ones clyro?' Han, its definitely the cliff richard biro - FACT!!! (straight from James's mouth!) Yeah I've seen a couple of tees I like! Going to try and get one cos I'm guessing at the gigs they'd be more pricey as that usually seems to be the way! I can't watch that footage, I tried to watch some on Absolute before of another band and it never works properly There's the Maida Vale set up on Radio 1 now to watch too, I'm gonna check that out tonight Yeah i want a new one to wear to the gig! and if its cheaper i may as well!! The maida vale set is awesome - the concentration on bens face in born on a horse when he's hitting that woodblock - the SEXIEST thing ive evr seen!!!!

Thank you ^^ Last night I got halfway through Maida Vale set and my laptop overheated So I'm just watching it again now, not that I'm complaining of course. Then I'll check out Absolute stuff So it's definitely the Cliffy one then? I heard Simon say once it was about a Welsh footballer too but you could kinda tell he was making it up as he went along haha

Aww sucks but its definitely worth watching again, and again, and again!! (although theres not enough zane for my liking!) Yeah its definitely cliff - both James and Si have told me, and that was waaaay back in the days before all the interviews asking about the name - they obviously just got bored telling the same story (KOL do the same thing remember!)

Haha bless them! I think it's funny to make interviewers confused, I know Bloc Party do it a lot and when they get asked about it next time round they're like "yeah it's all lies..." haha I saw it in the end! Not enough Zane?! He annoys me a tad bit but I do like his accent though!

I've had such a weird day, I was the FIRST person to the venue this morning (very proud of that!) but I didn't have my tickets or any money with me so I'm home again for a few more minutes before I head back into town. Biffy showed up at 3 after I'd been in the rain for ages, they were all in local taxis so I guess they must have stayed down here or something? They had all their stuff with them though... Weird there is no tourbus. Anyway I didn't bother queueing and there was just me, my friend and 3 die hard fans there and Simon and Ben got out right opposite us (I was originally stood there - so annoying) and didn't even bat an eyelid in our direction James had no hands to wave but he acknowledged we were actually there... I have a feeling they may have been going to soundcheck but I was a bit disappointed with the lack of effort. It's not like there was 50 of us! I'm sure all will be forgiven once I see them tonight, I'm gonna try and wait again but if there's no bus they'll probably come out in a car from the car park inside

^That sucks that they didnt stop to say hi!! I know they've had a few probs in rehearsals and probably 1st night of the tour they're quite nervous but still - they're usually so nice And i know they've been staying down south London way (plus the brighton gig thing) so maybe that explains the lack of tourbus Anyway I really hope you have a great night Sarah!!!!! (as if you wouldnt at a biffy gig!!) MON THE BIFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm over the fact they didn't stop now Quite sad I won't meet them at Brixton cos I can't wait cos of train times I well wanna see them at Barras it sucks! I tried to wait for them tonight but my friend has work early and the woman said they might take ages so I thought I may aswell not bother. They were AMAZING. I got second row on Simon's side, managed to get a few photos although they're pretty bad. So excited about next month now, I think it's under 3 weeks away already. I didn't want them to end

Finally back from Scotland and three of the best gigs of my life. Was on the barrier directly in front of Ben's drumkit at the Dundee show (still have the bruises to prove it) and a couple of times i saw Ben look at me and laugh. Yeah, the crowd was pretty hardcore, but still worth it. After the gig, we got the chance to chat with them a bit, got a few pics and stuff signed. Can't believe they remembered me from meeting them last year at Union Chapel. Top notch guys. Thought the Mon night crowd at Barras was a bit tame and no one around us knew any of older songs (felt a lot like the KOL shows i've been to this year), but Biffy made up for it by playing Jaggy Snake AND Hero Management. Even got invited to the afterparty at their hotel after the gig. Crazy times. But the best night by far was Tue at the Barras. Still can't believe they played Liberate -- my favourite song off my favourite album -- and something i never thought i'd ever hear in my lifetime. That song alone was worth the 4,400 mile trip. And the crowd seemed much more into it as well. Spent the entire set in the pit with my head resting on some random guy's chest gasping for air, and loved every minute of it. Seriously thinking about seeing them again in Berlin and Hamburg in Dec.

4.400 miles?!?! Where do you live?! That sounds amazing though I'm so excited about seeing them tomorrow! If you go on flickr and search Biffy Clyro and go on recent photos there's some beautiful ones from their signing in Birmingham this week by the way
