dont bother love they arent up to much. we tend to like most of the same things! :lol:

Futureheads were good but i think i have possibly seen them too much, i make sure to go to at least one gig on every tour...

their new stuff is alright as well but really nothing hugely special.

the best part of the set is (still) man ray followed by piece of crap, basically 4/5 year old songs :?

I'm going to Manchester too, should be good.

BTW on my CD the tracks repeat over and over, ie you have to skip to the next track or it just carries on playing whatever track you're on, is anyone else having that problem? Tried it on different CD players and the same thing.

nothing like them.

Vampire Weekend cross too many genres to be compared to any of the middle of the road indie bands (not including the walkmen btw).
Every time I attempt to make a decent signature I fail so this will do. FINE?!
