Biffy Clyro: 'Why Aren't We Being Considered For Role Of Pope?'
Thursday, 14 March 2013
Written by Elliott Batte
Scottish rockers Biffy Clyro have certainly blown up in the past couple of years - even earning a spot as headliner at this year’s Reading and Leeds Festivals. But they don’t want their achievements to stop there, and they’ve got an even bigger role in their sights - becoming pope!
The band made the Beatles-esque statement via Twitter last night, as their #AskBiffy hashtag - used for a question and answer session with fans - overtook the news of a new pope in the Twitter trends.
They wrote:
@jonjobrannen Why aren't we being considered for the role of Pope? And why isn't the Pope headlining Reading and Leeds?
The band are currently on a similar status level as the pope following the release of their #1 double album ‘Opposites’, so if you’re a fan, now is the time to go and check out their amazing live show!
You can catch them on their up and coming UK tour later this month and through April, or, of course, headlining Reading and Leeds Festival. If you need tickets, check the links below!
