I just thought of something, NOT enough DPT can kill you, and TOO much can kill too? Wowza. That's some music there :smug:

 

Woah, that's deeep :stunned: haha.

 

Very true!

Definately get what you mean! And honestly, there's nothing about him that I love more than that! ;) I'll have to start hitting him up with some insanely giddy "man, I'm flipping out over your lyrical content and chord progressions" shit. LMFAO LMFAO.

 

 

:D yeah, definately didn't want to exclude anyone with the christmas idea ;) I don't celebrate the holiday either, or at least not the religious aspect..... I just love this time of the year, everyone's so happy and I get real mushy with people. And I love buying people things. And giving things. So yeah, that's basically it. I just had some really crazy ideas of things that I could put on paper for you guys. :wideeyed: Like I said in a PM to Steph.... some nice glittery porno for your walls, eh?

 

:wink3:

 

LMFAO

I'm the same Dani....I don't celebrate it from a religious perspective, but I do celebrate the time of year...yanno, being with family&friends, showing the love and all that jazz :D

OH MY, Glittery Porn?? LMFAO :laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4: That's amazing!

 

I dont deal with either a)the religious aspect(I am religious though, but I dont celebrate this one ocassion...long story) b) The whole commercial deal. I have to agree I do love seeing the world more unified, something you dont see any other time of year I guess :(

:D yay for the holidays!

 

 

omg I'm all weird and gushy and sentimental right now.

 

 

and out of this all, springs that myspace group? wtf? LMFAO

 

http://groups.myspace.com/harmonyharem

 

 

you guys are going to have to help me with this. I have no idea what to put. LMFAO.

I'll help! :dance: [CALM DOWN MILDRED! :laugh4:]

LMFAO LMFAO I'm really enjoying this right now. LMFAO LMFAO. ahahahfdsjf;klds

 

 

I don't know what else to say. And I don't know what picture to upload.

 

 

help. LMFAO.

The ENERGIE one, looks pretty cool on that one me thinks :wink3:

 

lol, definitions? That's awsome! :laugh4:

 

Should you add the definition of YETI? :laugh4: No, SRSLY I think that would be good.

LMFAO ok! Wait, which? I have like 3.... :laugh4:

 

 

Like what I've done in the description area? :laugh4: I honestly don't know what else to say without sounding totally freakish.

 

But then, I made the group. So I am freakish. ahaha.

Freakishly cool? :laugh4: This is too cool. I wonder what he'll think. Maybe he'l tell John, who will tell Drew, who will tell Stan, who will tell Didz! :idea2: and makes us all winners.

 

:uhoh:

 

Yup. Love the group, I'll think of more things to put though, me thinks I have gather all the info while I was stalikng him :uhoh:

I gotta go, tomorrow I'll upload all the massive collection of Harmony pics I have...which is like 5? :laugh4: But yeah. Night! :kiss:

A group that celebrates one Mr. Harmony Williams, singer and guitar player for the band Yeti (and an actor to boot!). Spawned out of late night conversations between 4-6 slightly crazy girls who harbour nothing but admiration for such talent.

 

It just had to be done.

 

awww. Sometimes your words are soooo adorable :nice: and extremely hysterical...SLIGHTLY CRAZY? LATE NIGHTS? :laugh4::laugh4:

 

 

 

OK. Im GONE. Gone. Going.

oh man :stunned:

 

Hey, I already tried adding Stanthony's myspace. That bastard never logs on. Too cool to be a myspace whore. :angry: :laugh4:

 

 

I kind of enjoy the fact that on the group main page you see his picture, and then me looking over in my default like "hm?" LMFAO LMFAO LMFAO. WTF.

 

 

I am so amused by this, I don't think I can sleep tonight.

LMFAO. I added a bit more description.

 

 

ahaha, this is so fucking funny. Our group is obscene. Within reason.

 

 

LMFAO.

LMFAO LMFAO Seriously, I'd had to quote every single of your posts from the last what? 6 pages? to explain how much I laughed my arse off tonight! :lol:

 

Some weeny things I can recall wanting to say:

a) big AWWW to Dani for the cards idea :nice: You're oh so sweet :heart: I'll PM a bit more in a sec :laugh3:

b) while on the subject, just agreeing with the christmassy comments. Don't celebrate the religious, but it's definitely one of my favourite days of the year :heart:

c) FIC :D Love the new idea for the holidays break Dani, I'd be interested of course :wink2:

d) LMFAO LMFAO THE HARMONY GROUP! We need therapy :anxious: That is the smartest idea ever taken into action I swear! Now, lil problem :uhoh: I can't be a member if I don't have a myspace account right? Damn! I might as well make one just to be on the group? lmfao I don't want to come out as a stalker! (Even if I am one? :laugh3:)

e) I was about to ask today if anyone was interested in the audio to the POACN DVD, but thought all of you might have it already? In case Dave doesn't get round to uploading, I'll gladly do so :smug:

a) yay! Got good ideas on what to send to ya :sneaky:

c) heh, glad to hear it. I'm quite excited. I didn't write much of anything tonight, but I'll get around to it soon enough! :laugh4:

d) yeah, we seriously do need help. LMFAO. but he's slightly psycho too, and he definately has a sense of humor so I'm pretty sure he'd appreciate it. You should totally make a myspace, I seriously love it. For no other reason than it's so cool to come in contact with people you admire. It makes it all more real? Like... I've had conversations with Scissors For Lefty, and I love them, thanks to myspace? It's fucking weird. LMFAO. But I do love it. haha, and it's so worth just having an account for this.

e) Well I certainly am interested! :wideeyed: ;) whenever anyone gets around to it, that is :D

Oh damn damn decision decisions :uhoh: I would only get it to be a member of the group, so then Harmony can realise he needs to be my friend :laugh3:

 

This is tough :\

That group seriously is the best idea we've ever had. Like really fucking brillant. I love it. And I'm dead. Bang, bang. No pun intended.

LMAO IT IS! Gahhh effort making a myspace account! Don't expect it to be cool or anything, it needs time! :laugh3:

 

Anyway

Pop Tones Questions of Doom - John Hassall answers Poptones.co.uk's QUESTIONS OF DOOM about his band YETI

 

 

Who are in Yeti?

Myself on lead vox and guitars, Harmony Williams on vox and acoustic guitar, Andy Deian-jung lead guitar vocals, Brendan Kersey on bass and Graham Blacow on drums

 

How did you congeal into a band?

Through a wonderful series of coincidences-

 

What are the secret origins of Yeti?

Secret

 

The name Yeti - a tribute to the mythical manbeast wandering the northern parts of Canada or named in tribute after the krautrock greats - Amon Duul's Yeti?

Mmmmmm.......haven't heard of them - people can analyse and notate music trying to discover what makes it powerful, but the power of music can never be expressed in numbers and words - like a Yeti in can never be pinpointed and pigeon-holed

 

You played the first Yeti gig in the cavern club was that in secret tribute to the Beatles?

Yes and no

 

Yeti's sound, though, unheard has been described as the new psychedelic scene in Liverpool. Ala The Choral, The Zutons - was that the original intention?

Not at all - I do like the Choral, the Bandits, the Stands et al. but I think it's rather a case of who we all have been influenced by

 

How obsessed with the Beatles are you?

Everytime I think I'm over them I fall in love again

 

When are you going to release Yeti stuff?

Hopefully have a single out by the end of the year

 

Who with?

We don't know yet -though m.c.hammer used to sell records out of his car boot (though he's probably not a very good role-model)

 

The sound of Yeti is completely removed from The Libertines - intentional or unintentional?

Unintentional - the whole point of Yeti is that I try to write the best music I can, without having to conform or be anything I don't want.

 

What are the secret influence on Yeti?

It's a secret!

 

Did you plan Yeti? Did you make secret notes and documentation?

Yes I always had the intention a starting a band and from the beginning I've had a clear idea of how - I guess I've been in so many other people's band that I think I know how it should be done!

 

Is Yeti pure escapism of music of psychedelic dreams or caught up in the cathartic rush of the second coming of 77 punk?

Neither - it has none of the hedonism of psychedelia and none of the nihilism of punk -

 

How would you pigeonhole your own band?

Easy listening

 

How did you come across the other members of the band?

Harmony used to live with Carl (Barat), Brendan used to play bass in a band that used to support the libs at Filthy McNasty's, andy and I have a mutual friend and Graham drinks down my pub!

 

Were any of the Yeti member hesitant to join because of your association with the Libertines?

No, it tends to open up alot a boring doors

 

Yeti seems to me like a band rather than a side-project. Is that why you took on the monthly residency at the Highgate Boogaloo Bar to demonstrate that this is ‘a working live act'.

Nah the landlord is giving us free drinks

 

What is your first single?

Don't know

 

Where did the ska influences come from?

I don't know really - it's just something that I enjoy strumming

 

Where would you like to take the weird monster Yeti next?

We're planning on doing a tour of British sea-side resorts

 

Johnny Borrell and Carl Barat have both given you complete support does it feel weird that people are willing you to succeed with Yeti?

No it's great

 

What pressures do you feel fronting a band?

The only pressure I've had this far is from myself - my conscience

 

You are known as the quiet Libertine. Did it feel like when you started Yeti as 'the silent one speaks out'.

I's funny that noone really has the faintest idea what Yeti will sound like - i keep spotting these rather confused looking Libertines fans in the audience though they generally seem happy by the end

 

What was the first show like? What do you feel people's expectations were?

The first show was amazing - it was at my mate's brother's birthday party - we'd only played with Graham for 4 hrs - and he was perfect - it all seemed to fit into place

 

What's on John Hassle's(Hassall) IPOD?

Walker Brother,

Donovan,

The Move,

Matthew Herbert,

The Finn Brothers,

 

What is a musical love of yours that nobody would guess that you are obsessed with?

Morris Dancing

 

Where are you recording Yeti?

Toerag

 

Where is Yeti's spiritual home?

My mum's basement - where we practice

 

Choose: Echo and the Bunnymen or the Coral?

Choral

 

What is the future for Yeti?

World domination

 

 

 

I guess I've been in so many other people's band that I think I know how it should be done!

 

I feel I can shed a tear to that :( So glad he's doing something he can feel his own now :nice:

i keep spotting these rather confused looking Libertines fans in the audience though they generally seem happy by the end

 

Aww :nice: Of course they're happy in the end!

That only make me sure US among a Yeti audience :stunned: Damn we would be mad! :laugh3:

It would be beautiful :stunned:

 

Or really messy :uhoh: lmfao

By the way I'm not sure of some of the new ones full band especially cuckoo think I much prefer just the demo but time will tell.

 

I really love going onto Shambles forums these days and reading all the stuff :nice: Such a nice change.

Aww exactly! It's all going so well I'm keeping myself from getting worried :\ This is sure the way to go, and most definitely the way THEY DESERVE TO GO, for themselves and for anyone that's going along with them as fans. It feels so good to read the reviews and all of that, it's so refreshing to see some positivity around them :nice:

 

 

Almost 4am over here, so better go to bed! Dani was very very right about her late nights comment :laugh3: One has to keep up as best as one can! Night night Tea, great catching up even if it was for just a second :kiss:
