Yes!

Creamy Goodness

HOLY ****, this makes me feel old when i saw them at the TBMC in 2002.

Just Like Heaven

Ahh Cliffy Byro are savage. Love shoutin' "Mon the biff'" repeatedly at their gigs. Again and again and again.

Gunslinger92

Yay Any rough estimate as to how much tickets will cost?

Mushy

Ok im assuming tix shouldnt sell fast for this, but Im all over it. Just cant justify spending the money now. Well, I can, but really shouldnt.

Wing126

I hope tickets aren't more than 50. Slim chance of that though.
I reckon the tickets will sell pretty fast tbh! Only Revolutions was fairly popular. I'd say it depends on whether the crowd that listened to nothing more than Only Revolutions will like the new album or not.

Id say itll be the 40 mark. Tis a huge step up for them in Ireland.

Wing126

Between 32 and 35£ is what they're going for in the UK. I'd expect 45.

Just Like Heaven

Gonna be between €33 - €39 I reckon.

Furious-Red

Yea im worried about the turn out tbh over here with the fact they are doing 2 arena shows over here .

Wing126

Wonder why ticketmaster only has half the dates listed on their site.

Wing126

So is that 36.50 straight up? Or will there be another 6.50 for ticketmaster's charge? I'm always confused with ticket pricing.

Mushy

Yeah Itll be the extra amount added. Try Stephens Green outlet...no charges. Great price.

Wing126

Nah, getting pre-sale tickets. Just wanted to know how much to give my mate for one.

It's 36.50 so you won't have to pay the full 6.50. Could be €4 ~ though.

Mushy

New song!

Sorry to go off topic but I recently bought tickets at Stepehens green with my laser and they charged me a booking fee (only 4 euro for 2 tickets but still) so it looks like it may now be impossible to avoid booking fees

Mushy

That's just a normal card fee. Cash should have no surcharge.

It must be recent so, because I was never charged on laser card purchases, only credit card.

Furious-Red

Just got a ticket on presale and grabbed the new album for €50 altogether . MCD said it was sold out ha

Just Like Heaven

Standing still on sale.

Mushy

Will be for a while I guess. It was o2 or nothing for them. Handy for me

Yea seems like the only one left , wont do Rockness again , TITP is already sorted with headliners , not big enough for Glasto

Mushy

Tis only an XFM gig. Acoustic in the Roundhouse. Been at acoustic show before so not gonna enter.

Furious-Red

We understand Scottish rock trio Biffy Clyro will be revealed as a headliner for this summer's Reading & Leeds Festivals.

We are led to believe, via someone that we have known for a long time who is close to the band, that the Scottish trio will headline this summer's twin event for the first time this summer having appeared six times previously in 2010, 2007, 2005, 2003, 2002, and 2001.

The band release their sixth studio double album 'Opposites' on 28th January, and are expected to present tracks from their new material alongside fan favourites in a headlining set over the weekend of the bank holiday weekend, from Friday 23rd to Sunday 25th August. Reading Festival takes place at Little Johns Farm, Richfield Avenue, Reading, Berkshire, and Leeds Festival takes place at Bramham Park, Leeds, West Yorkshire.

Rapper Eminem is the only headliner confirmed for next year and will be joined by Alt-J, Deftones, Sub Focus, and Boy Better Know. There are no other acts confirmed yet for 2013, expect a line-up that will still include big names from the rock, alternative, indie, punk and metal scenes. No other have been announced by festival organisers. More acts announced in the new year.

Does anyone know when the tickets will be sent, I bought them in the pre-sale from the Biffy website?

fichillie

Anyone got their tickets yet?

Yeah, I got mine in the post before Christmas (my friend ordered them online from Ticketmaster the day they went onsale).

fichillie

Hmm...i bought mine through the biffy website presale and they still havent arrived

MagicMarker

Standing tickets are still available for this. I may want to get tickets but not quite yet, I think at this stage it's safe to say it's not going to sell out? Even standing?

Mushy

Doubt it was ever going to, unless they using the smaller scale setup. Can never say for sure, but itd be a safe bet.

Seeing them in Germany in August too, will be weird seeing them as smallest band on a lineup.

Furious-Red

I can see a similar layout like when Example played in the O2 a few weeks ago

I'm going to this but no nothing by City and Colour. Could anyone recommend an album to listen to so I'll know a few of the tunes on the day!

How is that smaller set up different to the normal one? Only been in the 02 once or twice.

Only two weeks to go until Biffy play live in Dublin.
Will “Mountains” be part of their set? There's a limited number of tickets left
