Will, you know you have to post pics of the result :D

ofcoourse i will! i got the money for the tattoo today and doing it on thursday or friday, the guy said its gonna hurt alot.. cause that spot is pretty sensetive but its gonna be worth it. so yeah.. cant wait :D

yesterday i finally got Takk... !! i know, i am a bit behind the times. but i don't think it matters WHEN you get into a band, but WHY you get into them.

but that is a different rant for a different day :nice:

 

ok so yesterday, i walked into my favourite music shop (JB Hi Fi for the Aussies who'll know what i'm talking about :P) expecting to have to go search for Takk... and possibly pay a high price for it. BUT! as i walked in, there was a $10 rack near the door, and i had a look through (it was mostly either stuff i had or stuff i didn't want) and there was a whole ROW of Takk... for ten bucks!! i was so excited. :D

 

and then i went home and listened to it (i'd only heard two or three tracks before buying it) and WOW. :stunned: i lllloooovvveeee. :nice:

 

i noticed something weird as i was listening to it. a few different times, i SWORE i heard words in English. once i thought i heard him sing, "i don't feel alright" and like three other times i swore i heard "i love you". but i think that's just me being a spack. :wacko:

 

sorry for the ramble. but they make me happy. !! :blush:

 

 

Yeah in Andvari I swear you can hear "I love you."

 

Adore that song...so special

in hafssol you can hear yeah many times i think

Will ~ let us know and more importantly SHOW US [if the spot you've chosen allows that lol] that would be great. personally i like the first, it's very interesting and i don't know, the second looks a little typical, like hm, too asymmetric if that makes any sense. of course this is all personal opinion so yeah :P anyway either one would be great, it's sigur ros afterall :D

 

 

Claire ~ oh yes, i bought is from the same place for the same price too! dance for jb hi fi lol great place and much cheaper than anywhere else. and yeah i can hear a lot of english but it makes no sense, but that doesn't stop me from singing what i think are the words :nice:

just got back! its peeeeeerfect :dance: :dance: although it did hurt..

ill post a picture soon. i have to wait 45 minutes to remove the bandage and clean the blood.. then ill do it.

so here you go. the results:

Sigur Ros has something to tell you….

(No.1 in an occasional series)

Our friends and cohorts in amiina are going on their first ever solo tour of America in March and you should do yourselves a big favour and go and see what they get up to when we’re not around to cramp their style. Details of how to buy tickets can be found here. These are the dates:

march 21 Madison (Café Montmartre ) tickets

march 22 Minneapolis (The Varsity Theatre) tickets

march 23 Chicago (Lakeshore Theater) tickets

march 25 Cleveland (Cambridge Room, House of Blues) tickets

march 26 Detroit (Magic Bag) tickets

march 27 Toronto (The Music Gallery ) tickets

march 28 Montreal (Le National) tickets

march 30 Philly (World Café Live) tickets

march 31 Boston (The Remis at Museum of Fine Arts) tickets

april 1 DC (9:30 Club) tickets

april 2 NYC (The Wordless Music Series) tickets

april 6 Cincinnati (Cincinnati Now Festival) tickets

april 9 Seattle (Triple Door) tickets

april 10 Portland (Doug Fir Lounge) tickets

april 12 San Francisco (Swedish American Hall) tickets

april 13 Los Angeles (Silent Movie Theatre) tickets

april 14 San Diego (House of Blues-5th Avenue Stage) tickets

The girls will be supported by Tom Brosseau on a lot of the East Coast dates (and he, by the way, is amazing). In Cincinnati they are performing both in their own right and as part of Sufjan Stevens band for his performance at Now Festival, which should be mother-of-god amazing!

Equally, if not more importantly, amiina’s debut album, ‘Kurr’, will be available through their website from March 21st. It can be preordered now here along with a new range of related merchandise and will also be available on the tour. Amiina are currently negotiating record deals to release the new album through traditional routes, but meantime, this is best and only the way to acquire this quiet gem of a debut. In addition, the existing EPs are now available as a download here.

 

That’s all. Over & out.

oooo i cant believe this! the guy took a picture of the tattoo after we were done but i didnt think he'll put it on his site! :nice:

 

the best close-up ull ever get, perfect...

 

^ very nice, i wouldn't be surprised if he did!

 

i've had more discussion about getting on today with my sister lol it's weird considering i would be the last person anyone would've thought would get one :wacko:

oooo and what did she say about it?

funny enough she was really interested in it. i thought she'd be pretty dismissive like "hm, ok well we'll see how things go, but anyway" yet instead she was like "where do you want it? what do you want tattooed? why?" really getting involved, which made me feel amazingly confident. when i told her i wanted the angel, she said "I KNEW IT! i knew it before you told me!" lol am i that predictable? oh well, for love of the music etc :nice:

haha do it then :P the angel is fantastic :nice:

i figured what i'll do is draw the angel on myself for around a week, and see if at the end whether i've gotten tired of it or whether i need to stop wasting time [and ink] lol and DO IT! lol it's insane that i'm actually considering getting one but :D

thats a great idea.
