I just wanna see the horsies, I don't care for KOL and don't want to pay what they will be asking for either!

BOH sideshows hopefully...

HalfCentaur

do support acts usually have their own shows?

humanracin

humanracin said on the 22nd May, 2011



the answer is probably just wishful thinking... but I'm hoping there's one in Brisbane if they do!

Depends, but I know Biffy Clyro had a couple small sideshows when they supported Muse in December

What are you talking about? This is the harshest thing said about them:

oldgregg

oldgregg said on the 22nd May, 2011



nah nah wasn't talking about on here, just on most of the facebook links from various news sources, people just saying shit for the sake of saying shit.

Sideshows pls.

humanracin

humanracin said on the 23rd May, 2011

Just remembered Little Dragon did sideshows when they supported Gorrilaz, so there is hope yet...

PS I'm not a KOL H8R.. I don't mind some of their songs at all, just not a big fan. But love all 3 Band Of Horses albums, and they are just magic live...

I can't bring myself to pay to see a KoL show just for them. But shit...

I would enjoy this concert.

I'd have gotten a ticket if I hadn't already seen KOL 6 times.

Fuck Kings of Leon. Sell-outs.

If there as ever any evidence that there is no such thing as natural justice, its that BoH are supporting KoL and not the other way round.

Band of Horses need to release their own clothing line to increase their popularity.

humanracin

humanracin said on the 24th May, 2011

or make a Faustian bargain like KOL...

Quicky

Quicky said on the 25th May, 2011

BOH should get 45 minutes to play at least. Would be pissed if they got a 6 song set like Biffy Clyro did when they supported Muse.

kol "hater" here and proud of it. fuck 'em, band of horses poo on kings of leon - its obvious. side show.... even if its like the acoustic set they did last visit which was announced only a couple of weeks before... here's hoping....

I think it's safe to say there isn't going to be any BoH sideshows as the tour is already underway..

Ha whats the deal with all the retards atm

8 songs was a tad disappointing for Band of Horses but I would definitely see them again. Just need to listen to their albums more.
