Set list times?

Your better off posting this in the FAQ forum.  Secondly, set times should most likely be posted on the front page sometime later today.

For what it's worth, this was a really great show. All three bands were loud and very energetic. Awesome to finally see Biffy Clyro, even if no one had a clue what to think about them. And Editors are a very good live band, not at all the Interpol rip-offs some make them out to be.

how was ra ra riot? they were recommended to me to check out as an opener, but who the heck can ever get to the 930 that early in the evening to check out the opener?

RaRaRiot were pretty good.  That's all I can say about that.
 
 My comments on Biffy Clyro...the drummer should wear a shirt so I don't have to watch his little belly jiggle whilst he's playing; if he insists on going topless, he should at least get a bunch of tattoos I can study when I'm done figuring out the tattoos on the lead singer guy or for when I get bored; good thing the singer had all those tattoos to stare at so at least I had something to do while waiting for their set to be over; damn I wish they were better so at least I could say that losing my hearing was worth it - they were too freakin loud.
 
 Love love love for Editors, though.  They were worth the wait.

well i dont know how they were last night, but i saw them a few weeks ago opening for tokyo police club, and a zillion times before that. so im beyond biased. i didnt know what to expect with the new drummer, but he was really good. it also means the song anthony will never be the same either, as there used to be banter between milo and john. that is long gone    i think over time they've gotten really great. i really miss hearing their kate bush cover, and last time it was quite a short set. but still as energetic as ever. and i think alexandra looks awful with blonde hair.
 
 im so excited to see them open for editors. they've opened for some really great bands (at least in nyc).
 
 can anyone comment on the set last night for editors?

Last night one of my very favorite things happened. I went into the night having zero expectations (was only there because I was tending bar) and I ended up being really impressed with one of the bands. Biffy Clyro was very cool. They sounded original and had a great energy and stage presence. They had a big rock sound with a chic indie vibe. I would have picked up some of their music, but apparently it will be a couple weeks before their cd is released. Wound up with a t-shirt. The other two bands sounded like a thousand other indie pop bands, thoroughly unoriginal, very little energy and absolutely no stage presence. Nearly put me to sleep. Will definitely be checking out Biffy Clyro when they come around again.

Ditto, except the part about the other bands.  I think each band killed in their own way.
 
 By the way the latest album   <img src="http://image.allmusic.com/00/amg/cov200/dri800/i870/i87084iv73v.jpg" alt=" - " />  (their fourth) was released awhile ago.  You can get a used  copy
 
 The US version yet to be released won't have any different material at least on the first pressing.

The one good thing aboutBiffy you didn't get much of last night were how great the lead-singers voice is. It comes through on their CDs though. Got a bit buried in their very loud set.
 
 Though, I'm not sure how you can say neither of the other bands had energy, even if you didn't like their music. Ra Ra Riot were all over the place, bouncing and jumping around. Very very energetic.
 
 FYI, I thought there set was good, though none of their songs are super memorable, all kinda sound alike.
