Paramore are touring in November
and, much more importantly, Pendulum are touring in December with fucking HADOUKEN! supporting
Alt Q - It used to be summer before it ceased to exist. Probably Autumn as that's when people give me presents for my good work in getting a year older
ALt Alt Q - Right now. Every time I close my eyes I see an alternate world where you fancy me more than you do my girlfriend

after seeing Pendulum at Sonisphere
I have been put right off them.
A couple of tunes were good, Voodoo People and Tarantula mainly, but the bellowing tosser exhorting as to "Make some fucking noise" and informing us every few seconds that "This is it" annoyed the shit out of me

10-15 minutes is all you need
because it was all the same.
I still like their slower tracks from the albums, the more spaced out stuff, but all they played were the banging ones with that standard Pendulum synth sound.

If she's not used to it, then fainting is to be expected. But being proud of it?
Only thing I've brought away from a gig proud was a cracking black eye. The only reason I was proud is because he didn't knock me out.

I don't do well with rough gigs.
My friend had an excellent solution to gig crowding. At Leeds 08, he had stolen a lifejacket, got into the middle of the pit at Pendulum and inflated it on one of the drops.
He survived.

One minute silence supported Slipknot at Cardiff
in the middle of Rise and Shine they got one half of the arena to move against one wall, one half against the other and when they dropped the chorus both sides were to charge at each other.
That was incredible. Such a great band.

Either you were watching a different band and were so stoned you couldn't tell - a distinct possibility - or you're a fucking idiot. It is completely impossible to be bored at a Pendulum gig. It's been proven by clever scientists.
