Corkus Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Three of them were "Blue Casette", "Hawaiian Air", and "Skeleton Boy". I was only a casual fan so I couldn't match a name to the other two. The first two songs were filmed for TV, the other three were bonuses for the audience in attendance (which was really cool, because it's usually just 1 bonus song for the audience). Barely touched Ed's shirt when he dived into the crowd (he turned around before I could really touch him). Also to my surprise, there were actually legitimate fans of the band in the audience who knew all the lyrics. I expected the crowd to just be random people like me who happened to get free Kimmel tickets. So that was awesome too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace. Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 I'd like to guess which songs they played but I really can't pick which ones they would have chosen, haha. Glad you had fun though! AAAHH you touched Ed's shirt!! :bomb: His dancing pretty much made my entire day when I saw them play at a festival a couple of months back :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corkus Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Did some research. One of the other songs was "Kiss of Life". Can't find video of the 5th one. I want to say it was "Live These Days Tonight" but I'm not sure. It was the song Ed dived into the crowd for, if that's any help. Here's the one song that actually made it onto national broadcast, BTW: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi9By_YjSuU]YouTube - Friendly Fires Performs "Blue Cassette"[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 "Skeleton Boy" :heart: "Live These Days Tonight" is the first single off "Pala," so that sounds about right. Congrats on touching Ed's shrit, BTW. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i'maveryneatMonster.' Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I really like Blue Cassette but the live performance is pretty bad for me :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nattatouille Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 ^^ Ed's shirt... Ohmygosh :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace. Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Hahaha, that is one awesome shirt Ed's wearing!! :D Yeah, I thought they would have played Kiss of Life. That's one of my favourites :awesome: For the other I would have said either Live Those Days Tonight or Jump in the Pool, but I guess it would make more sense for them to play LTDT seeing as it's on the new album.

Megalomania Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Haven't beard the first album, but I got Pala last week and I think it's just fantastic. :awesome: Would love to see them live if I ever get the chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace. Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 :awesome: I would highly recommend their debut, you should give it a spin. And if you EVER get the chance to see them live, do it! :cheesy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prospekt. Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 I like Pala better than the debut. Not crazy about the debut. Been rocking to Pala though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasier Chief's new album is pretty mint as well. I wouldn't know how to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace. Posted June 30, 2011 Author Share Posted June 30, 2011 I think I'm going to have to go KC. Because otherwise I will also have to miss the end of Elbow's set as well, plus it's logical I guess because I've already seen Friendly Fires... but :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMagpie Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 You should get it. Just in case you like them :nice: Yeah the song was decent. My only issues: 1) They aren't a Canadian band. I rarely write about bands from outside of Canada unless it's something I really like. 2) I would have to put a post about it, and it seems like the single was basically made to advertise gucci cologne so that is a bit of a sell out.

I wouldn't sacrifice Elbow for either of them. Just for that, your decision makes a lot of sense. I still haven't listened to KC's LP4 because, honestly, I'm scared to. :anxious: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
