November 21, 201213 yr Apparently there'll be a special code thing each ticket buyer will get so that they'll be able to participate in a competition... There's one prize per continent (two for Asia) so the chance of winning it is very small but worth it, I guess.
November 21, 201213 yr I'm sorry, do I come as a spoiled brat to you ? I know it must be worse off for you because you're not getting the download of the EP and I'm not sure if they will come to you, because I don't know where you live, that's awful, but that doesn't mean I'm inconsiderate of other people and I don't want them to play anywhere else, jesus I just wanted to vent for one moment, no more than that, because this is one of the bands that introduced me to music and it's just not meant to be again, first I was too young to go to a concert and now I'm too young to make an 8-hour drive in the middle of a school week, which in Europe is like crossing several different countries, but whatever, I'm spoiled and I don't care about anyone except me, you're free to believe whatever you like I don't mind missing gigs and I go to very few, don't sit very close, but this is one I must see before I die, you know :wacko: Indeed, and on top of that I spilled champagne all over my new Corvette! haha Yeah, I know, lots of brilliant bands go there, I'm very lucky. :disappointed: Perhaps when I'm 17-18 y'know, can't be running around there with my overprotective mom I know how you feel dee, I'm 17 and I live in the UK I've never been to a proper concert as such and when I talk online about not being able to go I get the same response 'it's only like a 3 hour drive' but still my parents are poor and certainly wouldn't let me go on my own. Plus the public transport sucks round here and the only concert they did in the uk this year was at a festival right at the other end of the country on a small island. I hope when I go to Uni I can just go to as many concerts as I like.
December 8, 201213 yr So the Valtari Experiment was pretty cool. No frills, literally just the videos from the website played back to back, though the theater atmosphere made them much more visceral. Still, 4 or 5 of them were truly awful, and finished with what might be the worst one (the one with the girl skipping through streets). When the lights came back on everyone was kind of stunned at the anticlimax.
January 24, 201313 yr Sigur Ros confirmed that Kjartan has fully left the band on their 'ask me anything' reddit session
January 24, 201313 yr Sigur Ros confirmed that Kjartan has fully left the band on their 'ask me anything' reddit session fuck no :(
January 25, 201313 yr At least they're still on good terms. :) Also, they've been confirmed for Coachella!
January 30, 201313 yr 15 days to see them live, on valentine's day :heart::heart: impossible to feel alone this year.
January 30, 201313 yr Best Valentine's Day present, that's for sure! Btw, can you do me a favour please? Can you check out the merch stands and tell me if they sell Heima (DVD) and guitar picks? I'd prefer to buy them at a merch stand than online.
January 30, 201313 yr Best Valentine's Day present, that's for sure! Btw, can you do me a favour please? Can you check out the merch stands and tell me if they sell Heima (DVD) and guitar picks? I'd prefer to buy them at a merch stand than online. Sure i can :) i need to check if they sell the necklace of valtari as well... i doubt it though :\ Do you want heima deluxe version or the normal one?
January 31, 201313 yr Yay thanks! I'm looking for the normal version but you know I couldn't say no to the deluxe one. :D The boat necklace is the most amazing thing ever, I'd love to have that, too. :bomb:
February 1, 201313 yr I have both lol first i bought the normal edition, then a friend of mine bought the deluxe edition and i was really surprised how cute and gorgeous it was, then i saw it on sales here and i had to buy it lol It is :bomb: and expensive too lol damn, i dont know, i'm pbb buying the buttons only, it will depend on how much their merchandise cost :shame:
February 1, 201313 yr Can you guys do me a favour? I'd love to see Sigur Ros live, and I realised that they have a perfect space between concerts just in time when InMusic festival in Zagreb is taking place. So if you have a minute, go here, click on the wishlist and write Sigur Ros in there. You can choose 5 bands in total, so I leave it to you to choose the other ones. Thank you so much and let's hope that it will work! :D
February 14, 201313 yr So tonight is THE night :) yesterday they played 4 new songs, i cant wait tp hear them!! Ms Magpie, i promise that ill check out the merchandise stand for you (and for me :P ) but i dont forget!
February 14, 201313 yr Wow, yes, please! But first and foremost - enjoy the show! It's going to be fantastic. :wacky:
February 16, 201313 yr The gig was super awesome, intense...just spechless, completely different from the last one i went in 2008, i'm glad i did not cry this time lol Before i get there, i was walking around the venue with a friend, we passed by the entrnce of the artists, but i know how shy Jonsi is and how much he hates to do interviews, so i did not stare there to see if i could see any band member...but men.. i was freakin lucky, i was walking and all of sudden i saw a couple coming in our direction from far i could not see that it was jonsi with one girl from their band lol only when they passed right next to us, i was petrified :| i was telling my friend ( she does not know very much the band) " look thats Jonsi, is jonsi. omg" but i was trying to be quite lol i dont know why, but then he looked behind and i could not resit and i just wave and said hiiiiii with this awkward smile :dead: he wave back to me and said hi lol he was not so expressive like i was, but hell... i cant believe that i said hi to this God :heart: I dont know, it was just magic, i never wanted to met him you know, i always wanted to keep the mistery from sigur rós lol i cant explain... god this was the best valentine i will ever get :') About merchandise, Ms Magpie, no heima there, super expensive merchandise :( the guitar picks were 15€, i bought valtari buttons, but there is one that is really strange lol i'm still trying to figure out what is that. They had Valtari Lp for 30€ Cd for 15€ and Ekki Muk 10' for 15€ the prices from website are cheaper than this, but then i dont know, probably with shipping costs is gonna be the same.. so..well.. that's it :) When is it your gig?
February 17, 201313 yr So awesome! You met Jonsi! :dazzled: The prices are way too steep for my budget. Think I'm gonna order Heima online and not bother with the merch there.
