Yeah. It would be great if there was a Canadian Frenger campaign (like the Mewxico Project or Mewstralia/Mew Zealand), but I have neither the time nor ability to organize and maintain something like that. Fraaak, I really need to buckle down and get this paper done. I'm officially blocking myself from the forums for tonight (pfft...wish me luck). See y'all tomorrow.

S'nothing wrong with that - in many ways that's the best kind! :cool: It would be great if Mew would add more Canadian dates to their future North American tours. As of now though, they aren't well known enough here to make the extra stops worth it (for them, I mean). :/

Nope, no radio play. But I think for the most part, people who listen to alternative/indie music around here have at least heard of Mew. (Maybe it's just the large concentration of hipsters in the UVic population...) And obviously, all my friends know who they are because of my 4-years-and-ongoing obsession. :P

Aww. I wish you could, too. Sorry if this is totally off, but I seem to remember you saying you live in Manitoba? Do you know if there's any smaller, independent record shops around? Stores in Vancouver usually carry ATGHK and No More Stories it seems, but it depends where you go. Kind of a luck of the draw type of thing. I once saw Frengers at HMV for $62.99, which is ridiculous: You're usually better off ordering the albums online, or buying them off iTunes - it's cheaper that way (I prefer having the actual CDs though, so I rarely use the iTunes store). The biggest surprise was when I went to a record store in downtown Victoria, and they had Kites, No More Stories, AND the No More Stories EP. Crazy!

My friend started dating a guy who was a big fan of Mew, so she showed me Zookeeper's Boy after he put it on a mixtape for her. It was right around the time Kites came out in fall of 2005. What about you? :)

Wild Beast new album: Two Dancers
I've just started listening to them, and I love what I hear! Thanks for the constant namedropping Jazz, I never would have heard of them otherwise. ;)

Heh, I know. It's important enough that I'm going in debt for it :thinking: Oh well, knowledge is priceless, as they say. Or do they? Hahaha, poor Bo indeed. But hey, if he changed his image he might lose the two fangirls he's got right now! Better safe than sorry :sneaky: Hokay, no more reading for me. Time to be lulled to sleep by the storm outside...nighty night Jazz! Have fun at Mando Diao! :)

It ain't my fault, they never told me I'd have to do all this sh!t to get myself an edumaction! That haaansome dude in my avatar, is the same haaaaansome dude in yours, who is pointing at ME! ;)

It's this interview: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzdbdNRE0rA]YouTube- Jonas Bjerre can't beat kids at Guitar Hero.[/ame] 3 out of 4 questions were from Mewsiters (Erin, Cori and me). And I think the last question was just the interviewer's, so technically, all of the questions they picked were from Mewsiters. I thought that was pretty awesome. Yeah, I think the dream was a pretty direct manifestation of my anxiety over going to see the gig on the 10th and making it to my final exam the next morning without any problems. And I don't even want to think about the possibility of it snowing that night...:\ Btw, did you get my FB message? ;)
-
Mew
Yeah, that was me. I've been using that handle for a lot of things for like five years, so it was strange to hear Jonas addressing it. Basically felt like he was calling my name :lol:

Mew
I'm so jealous of you all, I can't say. 23 more days!! AAHHHHHH!! I had a Mew dream that started good and ended bad last night. I was in Seattle for the gig, and while I was in some building near the venue I saw Jonas. He recognized me from the last time I saw him (I've never actually met him so this is not logical) and approached me to say hello. He was so friendly, and somehow I wasn't nervous at all, it was like talking to an old friend. I remember telling him I was the 'citizen insane' who asked him the question about Rock Band on Buzznet, and he laughed. We got to the venue, and Bo was there, making dirty jokes and talking to fans. Other frengers kept asking me to take pictures of them with Bo, so I obliged. I wanted to talk to him and ask for a picture too, but I really had to pee so I went to the bathroom...and when I came back out everyone was gone! Then I realized I was supposed to take my exam in 15 minutes, so I started trying to cram for it and had a panic attack. Finally, I woke up but couldn't fall back to sleep for a long time because it was raining so hard outside, and there was something making noise outside my window, like a windchime. I kept having bad dreams and waking up after this, and as a result I slept through my alarm and missed my first class this morning. Crap. :sad2:

Yeah. The similarity is more apparent if you see him in person. Now you have both seen the pics, I'm going to take the links down.

Haha no I have not, I haven't really ventured outside of this thread on CP. I can barely keep up with this one as it is! :p

The Jonas Bjerre Appreciation Thread (back)
Haha, well...he is good looking, but I would NEVER be attracted to him. Which is good, since he's got a girlfriend now. I guess you can't really tell from these, but if he made the same expression as Jonas in that picture he'd look quite similar.

I love that one too, but it's kind of odd because he looks a lot like one of my friends in it.

Here you go. (Let me know if you need it smaller...)
