    I think i would like to see them play, just because i think some of their songs are ok, and they have a lot of energy, which is good for a festival!

    no thank you :| I have ever got into bloc party, always seem them as very middle of the road, and massivley overrated; I’d much prefer a band like Dirty Pretty Things or The Kooks as a similar sized band

    seen them 7 times
    their best set being in 2005 at leeds fest
    they did an interview for nme saying they could have a new album done by the end of the year, so 2008 could be the first oppurtunity to hear new stuff?

    Bloc party are probably the most accomplished indie band in the UK right now - with Maximo Park in close second place. Of course I’d like to see them play - caught them at Leeds 2007 and they were immense.

    They were absolute crap last year, they were cocky and sounded crap. I was bitterly dissapointed. So maybe if they come again they will redeem themselves.
