What is your opinion on them?

they're not really from sheffield - they're from widnes (most of them)

and they're ok.. they're a bit samey with their songs though

Eh, they're not a terrible band, and I liked their album. *remembers something* Oh, yeah. I'm going to see them at Reading Festival this summer, so hopefully that will be good.

I like them, they're good. Only heard a few songs by them, three I think. Something about love, a riot van, and a dancefloor, so I'm almost certain they're former hippies or british.

Lead singer is cute, don't care for their style, and their one decent song is horridly overplayed.

oh thats pretty awesome have fun

now see the arctic monkeys were really really cool when they were small and unknown, they did stonking performance at uea at about the time zane lowe started to play their songs.

but now they have become to big. they are no longer a band loved by just the indie kids. now you get chav faggots singing to it.

they are good but have come to far into the mainstream.

kooks are the future now.

What is your opinion on them?
I think they need mod intervention to stop spamming polls.

oh thats pretty awesome have fun
Thanks! Hopefully I will. My friend is terrified of mosh pits so I'm not sure how well I will be able to see the band, but, eh well.

Very overrated in my opinion, average band who's songs are all the same.

I think if habitat desruction keeps happening they will be in trouble. More needs to be done to protect primates. Arctic monkeys need our help.

who?

Thanks! Hopefully I will. My friend is terrified of mosh pits so I'm not sure how well I will be able to see the band, but, eh well.

Mosh pits at arctic monkeys? The worse you'll get is a bit of jumping and bumping

as a mosh-pit veteran, two tips

a) get to the front row up at the stage - the mosh pit will be behind you and you'll be fine bar the occasional shove or kick or something :) (be sure to get in there early to avoid the pit starting up)
b) see Testament (or Exodus, why not) live: get through it and no mosh pit will ever be scary again :p

Nah, just get right into it and have a load of fun. If you're lucky (admittedly you won't be seeing the Arctic Monkeys) there'll be a Wall of Death.

That'll teach you to wear your glasses during one. It's not as if you need to see where you're going...:p

I'm so glad I don't need glasses.
