Before the guys in Biffy Clyro hit the stage, there was a strong smell of incense and suddenly a Scottish prayer began playing over the loudspeakers.
Three guys came out on the stage, the drummer in short blue shorts, the guitarist in pink pants and the bass player in some teal jeans. What came next was really unexpected, because to be honest, I really didn’t know anything about these guys.
The quick, short bursts of guitar mixed with sweet breakdowns and headbanging beats blasted me in the face and had me hooked instantly. “We’re Biffy Clyro…and we’re from Scotland. It’s great to be here America,” said the lead singer.
They traveled half way around the world to be here today, and they put on one hell of a show. They had really unique timing in their music which made it interesting to see what they were gonna do. I only got to see a few songs because I had to make my way over to the Main Stage for A Day To Remember.

What does it matter what the band look like? It’s their music that counts and their music is amazing!

If you checked him out more thoroughly..you will see he has had many different hairstyles over the years…but exactly what does that have to do with his music?

They did rock! They should have been on the main stage instead of the over glorified 30 seconds to mars.

This is sort of a lousy review. “Yeah, so I don’t know anything about this band, and I didn’t even watch the whole set, but I think it was ok, bye”

Biffy Clyro are amazing! Simon Neil is hot especially with his natural hair colour. But he doesn’t look like spencer :/

It’s about time America gets a clue about how GREAT this band is…the UK has known it for 8 years…I’ve known it for 3…and thats only because my wife is English and she introduced me to them…they need exposure here…hopin’ they will get the respect they deserve…

As a recent convert to the talent that is Biffy Clyro, I wish the guy’s well and hope that America appreciates them for the huge talent they are. Not only is their music amazing……just listen to any of their interview’s to appreciate their natural charm, inteligence and engaging personalities…….a real talent. Rock on The Biff!!!
