excellent, missed their last gig because of lazyness and the fact my mates wont go with me.

i'm definatly going on my tod this time round

Eyeliner__Boy · 31-01-2004 6:59pm

how wonderful!!! pity it's ages away though:(

memaeve · 31-01-2004 8:41pm

I really want to get their recent album but last time I checked it was sold out. If it's as good as I think it'll be then I'd definitely be interested in going to this.

They're the "next big thing" now aren't they? That stupid list in The Irish Times, "What's hot, What's cold" called them "Coldplay Lite" today. I hate that list.
(i have a special bond with quotation marks)

Yeah they are getting a lot of Coldplay comparrisons even though they have been around a long time before coldplay....
In fact I saw them in Dorans playing with Wilt during my first year in college about 5 years ago.

Jesus I'm old.....:(

robwDIT · 01-02-2004 5:03pm

coldplay me arse! hope to be there meself

legofsalmon · 01-02-2004 8:15pm

right, I'm there, anyone else??

Cherry · 02-02-2004 2:13am

Fahbyooluss.

Can't wait.

loveonautocue · 02-02-2004 2:28am

cannot. ****ing. wait.

still get silly chills when i think about their last gig at the tbmc. and the one before that. and the one before... when gary whacked me in the face with the stage door on his way out. bless! so yes, i'll be there as i always am, with a great big stupid smile on my face, singing along quietly and annoying them with requests for 'starfighter pilot'.

snow patrol. i swear, you just can't beat them live.

('final straw' is excellent. it's the only album from last year that i listen to properly... no skipping of tracks... buy it!)

yes please.

Jim · 02-02-2004 2:50pm

do you think they will only play new tracks? or will there be a healthy mix. their first album is my favourite.

Pencapchew · 02-02-2004 3:39pm

Just picked up my ticket for the gig. This will be an amazing gig, ive seen them live so many times and they are well worth it. I only hope they play a longer set than the last one in tbmc and this time they play the first song off final straw called how to be dead.

acquiescefc · 02-02-2004 4:58pm

Deffo think it was too short at TBMC, around 45 mins. Not good, only complaint tho!
Remember when they played Run?? Twas the first time id heard it as I hadnt bought the album until then. People clapped for about 2 mins after it ended.
Will never forget that.

No 5 in the UK...damn good goin.

And on the subject of Coldplay, subtle difference is COldplay are sh1t prima donnas, Snow Patrol are not.

I wonder if it's wrong that I torched my copy of the Sunday Times that called them "this year's Coldplay".

Too much, maybe?

But yes. I'll be buying my ticket this week, I hope.

Silent Grape · 02-02-2004 7:43pm

as far as i remember,
they only played starfighter pilot the last time
and one night is not enough from 2nd album,
but it should be a few songs longer this time!

no. 5
holy **** they're rockstars!
no better men

you serious? ****.

perhaps though the last time they played they were just tryin to promote their new album. perhaps.

magpie · 03-02-2004 1:12pm

No thanks, one Coldplay was bad enough.

lacuna · 04-02-2004 2:23pm

Tyrrial · 10-02-2004 11:51am

last time i saw them play i was hoping that they would play "get balsanic vinegar, quick you fool".. but they didn't, i haope they do this time. they are a great live band

Pencapchew · 10-02-2004 3:24pm

yeah....a longer set with a bigger mix of old and new songs would be great, i still loved their last gig in the tbmc, really hope they play how to be dead this time.

Tyrrial · 10-02-2004 3:54pm

indeed! how to be dead is a great song. best on the album as far as i'm conserned. but not quite the best snoe patrol song

Chocolate tbh.

Balsamic Vinegar is my favourite over all. Most played on my pc

Snow Patrol, anyone?
