BABsxo. Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 gutted. paramore could have been like one song in right now lol. &agree it will be their best show! scottish gigs are always heaving anyway. if it had been at the barras and not the gimpy carling academy i think it could have been even more magical, but meh... 18 days xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BABsxo. Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 ^ i know, theres just something about the place. i was there for enter shikari in october and i swear it was the best gig ive ever been to! paramore will still be awesome non the less, im sure really hope they do play there one day though, yer. btw, whats this about it being pretty easy for people with upstairs tickets being able to sneak downstairs? in the CA i mean. it doesnt affect me really, its just a few of my mates in 3rd year are stuck with seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shell- Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Barras is the best venue in Glasgow and my bro lives just round the corner so if me and my mates are standing in a queue for ages we just have to run down the road....just like 30stm lol!! i actually hate the academy! Does anyone kn ow what time the doors open my ticket says 7 but a mate is saying that they read that it was 8 :s which would be suckish as they have like 3 support bands.... THE SHIKARI GIG WAS AMAZIN THERE IN OCTOBER!!...so was FFAF just think its the venue haha! I duno a few of my mates snuck down before but got caught by a security guard...and got chucked out so idk =\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
