Guy Rope Tripper Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Quite possibly one of the most impressive performances I've seen in the 8 years I've been going to festivals. After feeling totally burst & getting rained on all morning they really lifted my spirits. Totally blew me away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco_Fudge Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 +1 completely blew me away. was struggling to find energy for the rest of the day but it lifted me up and carried me through. Amazing, absolutely epic. Hope they have another set at the arches later this year. Lost my mask in the madness of it all though.

RMcCole Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Totally agree. Thought they were absolutely amazing! Was at the back for a part then the further you went in the more mental it seemed to be. Definitely one of the highlights of the weekend for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordong Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Why did they start early? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elbear Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I know Im going against the trend, but from what I saw I thought they were awful. To be fair though, I have never supported the Bloody Beetroots and have never understood their live shows. Each to their own though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweemo freak Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 They blew. Rockness. AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Loved their set! Hearing intense tracks that R choons ina place like the Clash Arena was beyond brilliant. Also liked that part where they played some of the 28 Days Later soundtrack, did anyone start reinacting it lol. Bl0000000DYYYYYYYYYYYYY BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETROOOOOOOOOOOOOTS RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULE ! Ok, i'm a bit too hyper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toastrack Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 I spoke to one of them later on in the day...he said he thought the festival location was brilliant, wasn't too impressed with the organisation though, said they didn't really know what time they were due to go on...also mentioned how much he loves the arches and Scotland, said he has never felt so humbled anywhere as the last time they played (the arches) everyone started throwing their shoes at them lol.....typical one shoe weegies!! He was well sound and just about to go see his friends (soulwax) before catching The Strokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain333 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 The act that surprised me the most over the weekend and right up with the best i saw. I'm definately a fan now, f**king fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisskross Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 That was a good set. A couple of the slower songs didnt do much for me, but i did run out to get some photos of doves before coming back in for the end, so might have missed some good stuff. Some of me photos of these guys look pretty insane - should be up tomorrow. Took me a while to get everything together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smutchie Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Absolutely incredible. Highlight of my weekend! I was sober and right at the back of the tent, but that didn't stop me going crazy! I took a video but it didn't come out very well So glad I went to see the Bloody Beetroots over Fenech Soler! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poleski Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I didn't think they were that good at the Arches when they played live. What was so much better this time round? also whats the name of the drummer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco_Fudge Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 The drummer is called Edward Grinch. Smutchie: Snafu insiders tell me they have a planned return sometime in the autumn. Imagine it will be a DJ set, doubt the live show would be possible in Snaffers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco_Fudge Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 checked the EP line up and it looks feckin awesome. Mr Scruff playing too, one of my personal faves. The ticket is quite pricey and can't afford the extra for travel. Thus doing creamfields instead. Would have loved too though, plus Hayley is going. next year.....

pothead pixie Posted June 21, 2010 Report Share Posted June 21, 2010 This is a great review of their gig at RockNess on the STV website http://entertainment.stv.tv/music/182608-the-bloody-beetroots-tear-up-rockness/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMcCole Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 With these sort of performances The Bloody Beetroots Death Crew 77 will be absolutely huge, providing they aren't banned on ground of public safety first. Consider yourself warned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinwavin Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Saw these in Galway on Paddy's Day, they were amazing. Glad to see everyone seems to have enjoyed them here! Can't wait to see them again at Electric Picnic. That cover of New Noise is giving me chills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
