They only played Bigger Than Us, but Tommy said on twitter they have being rehearsing new songs live the past weeks and should start playing them at the Frequency Festival in Austria in August (can't remeber the exact day right now) :)

 

 

@Arantza Hope they'll come to Guadalajara, and it's plausbile the price for the tickets could be cheap, everytime I went to see them it was, at least compared to the price I'm now used to pay for other gigs, yesterday evening it was 22€, but there was also another band playing, when I saw them back in February it was more or less the same amount.

I really hope so, and the newspaper where I saw it seems to be really confident about it (they mentioned price, day and venue).

But now I'm worried about the venue where they are supposed to play in, it's like a bar that has live music and other music related things but I'm worried about the bar part since I'm under-age and I don't know if they will let me enter :thinking:. But I'll see about the venue once they confirm it.

Yeah it's more or less the same, actually cheaper than that. They said the tickets would be $300 pesos which would be around 18€, or if you buy them before the day of the show $250 pesos (15€).

They came out to sign stuff afterwards and I got to ask Harry when the news album si coming out, he said it's gonna be early next year, that he hoped we're gonna like it and they that they're really proud of it, and you could see by the way he said it that he really meant it :D

:dance: Great news!! So jealous you got to meet them, and glad you had a good time! :awesome:

@Arantza: I really hope it's true!!! :dance:

 

Have fun at the show Perrine, I'm more than sure you will. There were fans of the band playing after them yesterday too when I saw them, but I was lucky enough people shifted and made space in the front row.

They were a bit unlucky tough cause yesterday it was the hottest day in Italy so far, even Tommy mentioned it in its tweet this morning, but I'm happy cause he also said it was one of the most enjoyabel festival shows they played :nice:

A few pics, I didn't take many cause the lights sucked so it wasn't really worth it spending the entire gig doing that :P

Thanks Denise!

Oh you're so lucky! Did you get a pic with them? And your pics are really good!!

Well that's too bad, at my place they first signed stuff and then played, I was 3d row so I couldn't move... but my parents went and they got me a signed album!! :cheesy: (yes my parents met them and I didn't lol)

 

I wish I could've taken a pic with them, but I'm sure that's not the last time I see them anyway

I wasn't able to be front row cause they were those stupid Indochine fans (a crappy but old french band), they barely moved during the show :\

Well at least I got to make fun of them all day long (they were all dressed in black lol), and as me and my sister were the only ones knowing the lyrics and jumping/clapping all the time, Harry kinda noticed us :tongue:

Was such a great show, miss them already :sad:

(pics to come)

^^That's awesome Perrine!!! Look forward to seeing those pics! :awesome:

Haha, well done for getting noticed by Harry too!!! :lol:

*is still jealous*

@Perrine

Sadly it's not looking good for me :( but there is always hope.

Aww too bad you couldn't meet them, but you got the signed album and 3rd row. That's great!

I'm jealous too! :P I want to get noticed by some artist in a concert too! :lol:

I once got a blowkiss from Tom from Kasabian :lol:

That's my claim to fame :awesome:

/random

Harry's got a new haircut! Aw I love all his little moves :wacky:

 

^Yayyy so I can sell my signed album! Haha neverrrr

Can't wait to listen to their new album!!

I hope they'll be biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig after that!

 

Love Tommy's tweets btw.

 

It was good to see them at Wembley again where I first saw them a year ago. :heart:

I owe lots to Coldplay for asking them to support.

Might have mentioned that to Guy as well when we met him. :lol:

 

I was probably "wasting" too much of my energy on WL in Wembley, should have eaten a banana earlier, this way I probably wouldn't have memory loss for the first two Muse songs. :embarrassed:

I was wearing my WL shirt on the Sat. :)

 

Anyways, they played 3 new songs.

As good as that was, it was a bit bad for the atmosphere...

I'm a bit "concerned" because they style of those songs is very similar to the first album.

We'll see, right?

 

Here is a selection of pics for those who haven't / can't see them on FB:

As you can see I wasn't paying much attention on getting great pics in focus. :embarrassed: But I had a great time dancing and singing!

is it true that Harry McVeigh doesn't write the lyrics ?

White Lies to release new album in January

 

Trio's second effort has been produced by Alan Moulder

 

White Lies will release their second album on January 17.

 

The currently untitled record, produced by Alan Moulder at London's Assault & Battery Studios, will be the follow-up to their 2009 debut 'To Lose My Life'.

 

Songs set to feature include 'Holy Ghost', 'The Power And The Glory', 'Bigger Than Us', 'Is Love?', 'Streetlights' and 'Come Down'.

 

Despite the expansive sound of the album, bassist Charles Cave told NME that he didn't think the album was born of a desire to break further into the mainstream. "For a long time I thought we had an album of quite inaccessible music," he said. "No-one had given us the thumbs up that this was going to be commercially appealing."

 

White Lies recently showcased songs from the album at the V Festival. Watch the video on the right to hear them discussing the material.

 

Read the full interview with White Lies in this week's issue of NME, which is on UK newsstands now, or available digitally worldwide right now.

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES. :dance:

 

Thanks for the link, Ian! :smiley:

YESSSSSSSS, finally a release date for the new album!! January's not too far away!! :bomb::bomb::bomb:

Awesome. Their first album impressed me a lot and this is great news. They haven't rushed it either by all reports. It will be interesting to hear how their sound evolves.

Fantastic news! :awesome:

This makes me excited :D
