I've been to some absolutely incredible Biffy gigs in the past, but the last 2/3 were wank.

i hated not being able to go to gigs when I was younger. I was so desperate to see Test Icicles in like 2005 (which isnt even that far back) but it was all "you'll seen them when they play closer to home." They never did and then they split up.

Its definitely between Jay-Z and MA, I'd pick MA cos I'm seeing Jay-Z with LP at the MK Bowl.

I like how Editors and Fratellis are higher for Glasto than they are for Reading.

If you want to see an immense Biffy live, get in a time machine and go back to 2005.
They were better in 2004, I saw them at the London Astoria supporting Hundred Reasons and it was easily the best time I've seen them.

I then saw them at Reading in 2005 and they were average in comparison.
