We also have a Search Button and a Band Index. It's not that hard to find threads.

Briggings, I did use the search button. I didn't notice the band index.

Yeah, I did actually use it the other day to find the Keane thread and couldn't find it :)

Next time try searching titles only in WOM only. :nice:

I can't get Clear Skies out of my head. :freak: Definitely my fave song off the Night Train EP.

 

"I've never seen such beauty

I've never seen such clear skies

Ive never seen such high hopes

I've never seen such tired eyes" :wacky:

So...who's going to any of the forest dates? :D

 

Sadly , not me.... but if someone goes... we would like to see pics!:D

Me - today!!:D

I absolutely love Keane to pieces, they are my second favourite band and my favourite song by them is 'A Bad Dream'. I haven't got the Night Train EP but my friend has and he doesn't think as much of it. I guess I'll see...

Words can't really adequately describe how brilliant it was. As it was Keane's "homecoming" gig there was a particularly amazing atmosphere which was remarked upon by Tom on more than one occasion. He actually said it was one of the best nights they'd ever had as a band.

In terms of atmosphere and experience it was a bit like seeing Coldplay at Wembley in September, except the venue (as it was in a forest) was vastly superior IMO.

Even though I was in the front couple of rows, I also had a bit more space to move because - owing to its greater size and the fact there were people with seats and "picnics" dotted around - the arena itself was less cramped and there was no "concertina effect".

As at Wembley, there was also a real international flavour to the concert, as I was among several French and German fans as well as someone from Belgium, and I also met some from Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Argentina and the U.S. among others.

As with Wembley, we also queued all day, but there was also only one queue, which made things far more straightforward and much less chaotic. Therefore everything was far more relaxed from start to finish.

We were also able to watch the entire "soundcheck" through the fence, which only had a light canvas mesh covering, and to cap it all, Richard walked over to the entrance shortly after he arrived and spent quite a bit of time interacting with the "early-bird" fans.

That's the second time in a year I've witnessed Richard putting himself out in that way, and I'm very impressed with his "forthcoming" attitude.

 

Incidentally, one of the standout moments for me was Tim singing "Your Love", which is an amazing tune I can't get enough of at the moment. He should definitely sing more often, and that song couldn't have more of an "Eighties" feel if it tried!:cool:

You can virtually "feel" the atmosphere. It was like that the whole night!

I am really jealous , Glasto is going to be amazing!

wow , I wish I could go to one of the gigs of the forest tour they seem superawesome!

Richard is great and super friendly, I haven't actually talked to him,bit when I went to the Mex concert he was walking outside the venue , and I saw him , but at first I wasn't sure if it was him , but some months later I discovered it was him

Well...I saw a band called 'Keane' last night...and they blew me away!

Brilliant set! Tom (And Tim) was note-perfect throughout the show!

Starting with 'Back In Time' and closing with 'Crystal Ball' I HAD SO MUCH FUN! THE BEST SHOW I HAVE EVER BEEN TO! The night was beautiful. Amazing.
