Phoenix just won a Grammy for Best Alternative Album! :D

 

I never posted my pictures of them from last month because the pics turned out awful. :\ Fantastic show, though.

^^

 

they should have more awards under the alternative category. it will make things more bareable.

Congrats for Phoenix. they deserve it. :D

 

:heart: I love this album so much :wacky:

 

I can't even choose a favorite <3

I got a free download of 1901 off of Insound and so I decided to listen to the whole album and it was pretty pretty great :thumbsup:

I'm thinking of more exploring their previous albums but i'm scared... :anxious:

Does anyone know of their albums? how good are they?

 

the albums Alphabetical and It's Never Been Like That both have great songs. you can try them, if you liked WAP then you'll like those two. :)

 

but United is ok and not as good as the other albums.

:dance: patriotic dance :dance:

CONGRATS TOO HPOENIX HOPE AMERICA NAD THE WORLD GET S TO KNOW YOU! 1901!

They're coming out to Aus in a couple of months, I'm really hoping I'll be able to go and see them!

^^

 

you mean in one month! im seeing them on march 2 at the hordern in sydney. thats sold out but they've announced a second date at the Big Top in Luna Park. cant wait to see them live!!

sorry dp

Yeah, one month :P

I'm really hoping I can get enough cash together before then (I think they're in Brissy on the 1st...) to get a ticket!!

^^

 

its one of the most expensive shows ive bought tickets to in ages!! i really hope its worth it!

Well yes it was one of the more expensive shows of 2010 so far. But it was well worth it.

 

I always seen Phoenix as being just a great indie pop band so I expected a regular pop like performance. But the band surpassed all my expectations. The vocals were perfect, the crowd was very energetic for a cold Tuesday night in march but it was their spectacular muscianship that really surprised me. The band was not afraid to be a little self indulgent and have the odd extended jam session. Best of all the band didn't finish until 10-45 despite a scheduled end of 10-30. A very memorable concert of songs I will be singing to myself for weeks.

 

They had Aussie electro up n comers Miami horror in support who put on a far better performance than the one I saw at the big day out.

^What constitutes a cold Tuesday night in march in Australia? :P

^^That sounds awesome :D

Overcast and below 20C and the need for a jacket after the show. Haha

I would kill for that in March :P

 

A cold night here would be overcast and below -20C and the need for a jacket, hat, bonfire, a layer of fat, and those Canada mittens.

HEY GUYS GUESS WHAT?

THEY'RE COMING TO AUSTRALIA BUT NOT NEW ZEALAND!

YAY!

I AM SO FUCKING HAPPY!
