They sure are. It's understandable seeing it's old (Paul's hair! :lol:), so they didn't know the words. But still, show some excitement!

 

Oh and it looks like they're doing an instore signing before their North Six gig (is that the name of the venue?) in NY. Hope we get some good photos from that :anxious:

Omgz they're playing North Six :bigcry: (i'm seeing We Are Scientists there in December and yeap, that's the venue name!)

 

 

crap, and a signing??? When are they playing that, this saturday yeah? I wish there were still tickets, I'd try to go up there.... damnnnnn.

From what I read on their forum, there are a couple of people that couldn't get tickets either. The strategy they are doing (following reccomendations) is showing up at the signing and try to get tickets there. My advice would be, show up there, tell the boys how much you love them and how you would kill to get some tickets. Maybe they can sneak you into their guest list. I've seen some girls do that once at a signing and it worked perfectly. If you show you're a true fan, I reckon you'd be lucky. It's a bit risky not living in the city though.

Yeah, I don't know... I'll have to see with the train schedule and stuff. Dunno :laugh4:

 

 

I would definately try that, though, and I'd try getting early so I'm not like the 50th person to ask them. I've seen people do it too, I know Gary got a guy in to the DPT gig in Boston, which was pretty awesome. Gary's a hero aha maybe I'll do the bullshit "I'm a photographer and..." routine... :idea2:

Hey that sounds like such a fantastic idea. Daydreaming: imagine you got a photo pass! That would be MASSIVE and you would my ultimate hero. But yeah, trying that and getting to go to the gig would be fantastic in itself.

 

 

I'll try and find more about times and stuff for you, just in case.

That'd be really helpful, definately. And I'd love to get a photopass, I just don't know what to do for bullshitting... I guess I could say I am the photographer for a paper in Rhode Island covering the story.......

 

 

 

 

I don't even have a good camera! :laugh4:

 

 

 

haha, that'd seriously be amazing though.

:laugh4: You could even give a fake name and dress up for the occasion. Or not :laugh3:

 

Anyway, have you checked recently for tickets? Cause it doesnt say the usual SOLD OUT tag on their website, but that could be cause it havent been updated, dunno. Give it another look just in case, but yeah, almost sure its sold out though.

 

 

 

 

Bit of info for Tea (she might not be interested at all, but still), theyre playing Sweden on the 25th Nov (Stockholm Devaser), but I dont think Stockholm is confortable enough for her to show up though :thinking:

And a minor picspam for the night:

I seriously love Paul, he's such a sweetheart. He looks like a common guys but cuter :heart:

Awww poor Luke, Hugh's not looking back at him!

Thank you! :sneaky: I'm gonna see what I can do... heh heh

 

 

 

 

 

 

awwwww, poor luke! Unrequited love! :laugh4:

:laugh4: He's looking cute with the new fringe, isn't him? Aww bless him, he's gorgeous even with that (VERYSEXY) ripped t-shirt.

He looks lovely, definately! :nice: They all do!

Hey Red have you seen the SMIHOW Jonathan Ross performance? It's sooo great, plus Luke's wearing that coat you like :laugh3:

 

I love it how they makes it seem so effortless everytime they're performing live. And they always manage to sound brilliant. Damn these boys, I love 'em!

 

:kiss: I LOOOOOve that performance, I had forgotten about it actually! Haha, Im going to get that coat from him, its really cute!:nice:

 

The fact they seem so carefree on performances is why I love them. They are just like common musicians, they can pick up a guitar and sing yanno, not much rehearsals or fancy instruments. So effortless! And I wont even ramble on Luke's voice live. Its just phenomenal:heart: Seriously thanks for that link of their acoustic album!:kiss: I havent been able to stop listening!

(Max on the cover...:wacky:)

Awww poor Luke, Hugh's not looking back at him!

 

The more I look at them the more I believe my friends statement...they do look homeless!:laugh4:(Except for Paul maybe :thinking:)

 

Cute homeless boys, yeah!:nice: I'd give them a home they can come live with me :sneaky:

 

 

 

:uhoh: I think that's enough fangirling!

Aww I know, I've been gagging for that album for such a long time! Lucky me, decided to have a quick look at that box account with all the bsides and stuff and voila there it was! Don't you just love it? Luke's voice is just perfect on there, top top stuff. And 'California' :heart: I was eager to hear any live performance as they added it to their current tour setlist, so I was really curious about that. Even though this one's acoustic, still great :D

:laugh3: Do they say they look homeless? Awww that's really funny! Though judging by their clothes (and Luke's hair), they kinda do look a bit rough. It's all part of the charm though, isn't it? :laugh4:

^ I guess it is:wink3:

And still on the subject of the acoustic album, I ABSOLUTELY adore that part at the end of mmm is it 'Matchbox'?, well, whatever, I can't recall which song, but Luke starts talking not stop until Hugh goes ANYWAY, as if trying to shut him up or something :laugh4:

 

I'm so sure they're so much fun! I love it how Luke rambles all the time, keeps asking the audience question, etc. :lol:

Is it Matchbox? Gosh, I have to listen to that again! :laugh4: I couldnt stop laughing the first time I heard that, because its something...that happens to me usually, pretty much on a daily basis!:stunned: People say I talk waaay too much and too fast.

You know how I've always said, I dislike Naive? Well, I love it now thatnks to the acoustic version! :kiss: Seriously, Luke's voice is heavenly on this one. I love how it sounds like his voice its going to break...but it doesnt!

 

Kooks love!:heart:

Oh exactly! Was thinking that same thing about his voice all the time! It's really gorgeous.

I know what you mean about Naive, same happens to me with Jackie. That version should have been in the album instead of the actual one. And the tambourine is soooo perfect in that song. Wooo can't really stop listening to this album!

I've probably missed someone posting this, and I'm sorry if it has been done, but does anybody (aaaaaaaaaaaaaandy :sneaky: ) have their cover of 'Just Like A Woman'? My friend was just telling me about it and I realized I'd never heard it!

 

 

Thanks so much :D

Is it Matchbox?

 

:laugh4: Just checked again (no, I'm not listening to it all over again :rolleyes:) and it's actually 'Sofa Song'. I love that bit SOOOO much! It's hilarious. And people there hardly laughed back! I mean, it's Abbey Road, so they sure spoke the language! :laugh3:

 

 

 

Dani: I'm sure I posted it on the covers thread a while back, but that's probably dead by now, so I'll upload it in a minute. Talking about annoying audiences, that's probably running for one of the most annoying ones! But still, you can get the idea from a (very) poor recording.

ah well, that's what my friend was telling me. I'd appreciate it just the same, cheers!! :D

Haha, hey! This thread has overtaken my 'Jonny Buckland got married!' thread in most popular threads started by me, or something.

 

 

Well that is quite the accomplishment!

 

 

 

 

 

(lmfao wow that was the best April fools ever...... man.)

There you go: http://www.sendspace.com/file/y2mf04

 

 

 

Oh one more thing about the acoustic album: probably my favourite bit is the end of YDLM. The way Luke signs is like on the album (hah don't know how to explain it!) and I hate it that he never sings it that way live! So yeah, swear that's the last thing I'll say about the album (I hope! :laugh3:).
