This guy I know from Bloc Party gigs, he's an Interpol nut too, and he caught Paul's pick at the show when they filmed the Mammoth video. He keeps the pick in his wallet wherever he goes....hehe :nice:

Im a little jealous :wacko:

^ I'd do the same if I had his pick. I'd probably tell everyone about it too. :wacko:

 

@ GazeboflossUK : Great pics esp. Daniel's. :nice:

^me too! The night I saw them live was amazing as well as unforgettable! :nice:

 

 

I'm having a problem with their official forum. I registered there a few days ago and I validated my new account but for some unknown reasons (at least for me) I'm not allowed to post even though I have tried to several times.

 

has anyone had the same prob than me?...

Oh yeah!

I couldn't post there for A LONG TIME!!!

Its weird, and I cannot understand it.

 

While you're at it, check out www.interpolonline.com if you haven't already.

Its awesome!

And I am also an active member there :D Heh heh.

at last it allows me to post! Anyway, I checked the site you said and it looks nicer than the official forum, really! The latter has some silly strict rules! Also, I've read that some ppl said that moderators do with the posts whatever they want to, so it sometimes seems that posts disappear without reason.

^^ YEAH! in that forum there´s something wrong, still is fun to post sometimes ;-)

 

By the way, I saw them last october here in Mexico city and it was as thinker said: b-o-r-i-n-g. And I´m a huge fan of them and I know each and every song and I was sooo looking forward to it, so I came out really dissapointed.

 

Dont know why, really, but there was something missing on that presentation. thye are jusst still, and the sound was bad and paul´s voice was horribly nasal...

 

Maybe it was because I had just seen Travis like 2 months before that so, they had a high bar to pass over. Travis gave one of the best, if not the best, concert I ever seen so, I was really expecting too much of Interpol.

 

However, I want to give them a second chance, because I like the band, but I agree they can be boring... :\

I've never seen them live, only from some videos. I can see why you had that thought. But you also have to remember and realize that Travis and Interpol have a very different style in music. I mean Travis have songs that would make you smile, feel happy and enlightened, sing along, and move your body, just like Coldplay songs. As for Interpol, for me their songs have this kind of 'dark' feeling. So I wouldn't expect them to move a lot or jump around the stage, I mean it just don't fit. :thinking:

 

From the videos that I've seen, the only one who moved on stage was Daniel. The rest just stood still like you said. And the crowd only moved their head a little bit. I don't know, maybe I haven't seen many videos enough to make such conclusion. :D

 

Well it's only my opinion. Who knows how I'd feel if I ever have the chance to see them live. :wacko: The nearest gig they will have is in Australia in March next year, but I can't afford to go there. :cry:

When I saw them a few weeks ago Kessler was LOVING it! Couldn't keep still. My friend and I were saying he seems to be the only one out of them all who just LOVES being in interpol. I mean, I'm sure the others do too, but he shows his love more visually :laugh3:

I agree with you here.

 

Interpol's songs are rather sad and most of them (if not them all) have a touch of melancholy. In my opinion, that's why when being on stage they try to convey this idea of seriousity to the fans and you can notice of that with their way of dressing as well as with their behaviour on stage. So, of course, it wouldn't make sense thay they started to jump around the stage or to dance because it wouldn't suit with their songs. And I think that if they did so, they wouldn't have the same credibility...

well, is not really about the jumping, although I agree Travis and Interpol play a different kind of music. Let´s just compare them with The Cure then, I also saw the Cure, actually a week before than interpol and even if Robert Smith is old, a little fatty, hehe, and their music is not jumping at all, there was something on stage, some endearing, I mean, even Robert did a little dancing while "love cats", not that much, mostly just going around in the stage and all that.

 

I compared them with Travis because Travis definitely blown out the house but my point is not about jumping, is about caring. Robert Smith actually looked like he was enjoying the concert and he doesnt need to jump or speak too much to show that.

 

I remember Robert said once in an interview, something like: "we do concerts every night and for us, one concert is just another one, but for the people who´s coming, this might be the only chance they got to see us, so we try to play every night like it was our only concert and to give the best because for the people that´s coming, this might be the only chance they got".

 

And that´s the thing, The Cure and Travis actually seemed to be enjoying the concert, and not be there just for the money but becuase they love what they do and is like they wouldnt care about the money (yes, they do, I know, but they make you feel something) and Interpol, particularly that night, was more about: "oh, this is another concert".

 

I´m not expecting to seen them jumping anytime soon, I just wish they would be actually happy about being in a band and not depressed like carlos, or hating everything about journalist like Paul or trying to keep fans away from them and like, to show they are happy on stage, to show they care, to show that they know that for us is our only damn chance to see them and to act like that, even if they are playing every night... not sure if I´m explaining myself.:thinking:;)

 

Anyway, I just wanted to clear that is not about the jumping... although travis areeeee just great, really.:cool:

I get your point there. :) If that's the case, I agree with you. I think it's true if the band didn't seem to enjoy playing the show, then how we could enjoy it.

 

I remember Robert said once in an interview, something like: "we do concerts every night and for us, one concert is just another one, but for the people who´s coming, this might be the only chance they got to see us, so we try to play every night like it was our only concert and to give the best because for the people that´s coming, this might be the only chance they got".

Totally agree. I, for example, don't know when I will ever see them and surely hope when I got my chance I'd like to see the best show ever. :wacko:

 

It's too bad you didn't get the feeling that they're giving their best when you went to their show. :( At least you really enjoyed Travis and The Cure, and that's good. ;)

*bump*

 

 

any news on the boys??

nop, Paul is still dating an ex super model and I still have huge doubts about they will come back to Mexico in March :\ Apparently, to see them in huge festival with all the "I want to leave" attitude in the world will be my only chance to see them.. :cry:

 

what´s up with you? You barely post here or in their forum anymore! :)

To be honest, seeing Paul jump around would be wrong, just plain wrong. haha.

 

You can see the emotion in their faces if you are close - plus, Daniel is always on the move...and Carlos is often pulling some awkward, protracted shapes.

lol! yeah when i saw them it must be said carlos was doing abit of the old grandad-at-a-wedding kinda dancing, which was none the less amusing. The cardigan he wore added to the effect no end. Gotta love the mighty 'D'!! lol!

How are things on the west coast ??

Hear you're moving real fine

You wear those shoes like a dove! Now strut those shoes we'll go roaming in the night

also out of tune if you know what I mean :laugh3:

 

And I guess for any fan of a band with at least 1000 other fans in each town, would be hard to see their faces... but I suppose is just a matter of appreciation... ;)

 

 

About jumps and stuff, Paul doesnt jump but he..... sometimes..... after the second 29....

:laugh3::P

 

 

 

For a minute there, I lost myself:Zu

zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!

 

mija pues what can I tell you..... no internet at home STILL makes me mad!! lol I'm sneaking in a bit her at work.. heehee...

 

 

I heard about Paul and the wench... but I think its not serious... just sex if you ask me. He's maybe enjoying the 'big time' too much.. so he'll just fuck around... which is fine by me... lol so long as he stays single!!! lol

HAHAHAHA

 

I bursted out laughing.

Nah, but I needed a "reason" to post it! :laugh3: my pleasure! ;)

Oh, I see! I thought you were just done with coldplay and the pol or something... yeah, to dont have internet at home is quiet a bad thing! ;-)

 

And I think for something no serious, they have last a lot!! they have been an item since july. I would like to believe he´s just fucking around, what I dont understand is why not around ME! hahah...

 

But is nice to hear from you!!! ;-)

oh, I was just wondering about your signature. Where did you take it from ?

 

Nah, but I needed a "reason" to post it! :laugh3: my pleasure! ;)

 

ah, honestly, you don't need a reason to post that. This is the Interpol thread, isn't it? So I suppose that you can post here whatever you want to as long as it is related to Interpol (and of course it was the case).

 

thankyou anyways. :nice:

he,he, that´s true.

 

My signature is a quote of Violeta, the main character of this book called "El Diablo Guardian" by the mexican Xavier Velazco. The story is about this girl, Violeta, who rans away from home at 15 with 100,000 dollars stolen from her parents and goes to NY. Is a reallly funny character and good book. Was published by Alfaguara here in Mexico if you are interested.

 

And I just thought it was a really cynic super good quote, I kinda laugh everytime I read that part so... ;)

Oh, that sounds interesting, just the fact of the girl leaving home and going to NY.... This must be an amazing experience for her although dangerous in a certain way. I might like this book but it all depends on the way the story has been focused on by the autor. I mean which facts he wanted to remark and which ones to forget somehow.

 

It's definitely a good quote. "Ser pobre es de mal gusto"?? haha, this seems a joke, like a really good joke! :lol:
