Describe The Evolution Of Your Music Taste
0-12 I listened to the music my parents listened to. For my mom it was U2 and Train most of the time. A lot of The Joshua Tree, HTDAAB, and Drops of Jupiter. With my dad, it was all rock 'n roll, well for both parents it was, but my dad was a big Zeppelin fan as a kid. He would listen to them, The Who, REM, Bruce Springsteen, and many others. 12-18 At around 12, I got my first ipod, a 2nd generation nano. I remember at my grandparents house, my grandpa gave my dad this cd with a white cover and what looked like a weird looking head on it. I remember him saying, "You should check out this album called A Rush of Blood to the Head by this band called Coldplay". After that, the rest was history as they say. I also got into Snow Patrol around this time. So from about 15-18, I pretty much only listened to Coldplay, U2, and Snow Patrol and whatever was on the radio(usually a classic rock station). 20-present Well back to the present, I now listen to more bands than before. Within the last 2 years I discovered this little band from Manchester called Oasis. I got hooked and they are one of my favorite bands now. Because of them I am also a fan of NGHFB. Beady Eye wasn't so bad either haha. I also got into this Nashville based rock band called Safetysuit. I recommend them to anyone who wants to hear a more modern approach to alt rock. They aren't too bad. They have a 3rd album coming out soon hopefully. That's about it. I play guitar and write music but it's shit. :P

Looking back - Your highs & lows of the Ghost Stories era?
The low and high for me was that I went through something rather difficult last December, so when Ghost Stories came out, it spoke to me like no other album. I could relate to every song, every lyric and line. I went high up and down below on every turn it made. But if anything it made me realize life should be lived full of love and dreams. The sky is always full of stars, and sometimes you honestly do feel like a ghost story. But that's alright because the universe has a way of pulling us back so you can launch into something great. You just need hope and a head full of dreams. ;)

Ghost Stories Live 2014 out 24 November
You can buy it from Target also. It's advertised for $12 online, but in store it was $16 when I bought it. In California that is. Any new YouTube videos coming soon Kyle? I'm learning piano and I find your tutorials fantastic. Thanks for taking the time to make them.

LP7- "A Head Full Of Dreams"
Both songs originated back during the MX sessions. Tomorrow was on the white board for Ghost Stories. So, "in theory" is Tomorrow one of "the tracks off lp7?" And if any of this true, could you name drop some other titles. It would be much appreciated.

Lyric writers
Wrote this one last night. Home (DAEF#AE) Verse: (770500), (11,11,0,10,0,0), (440300), (220200) Chorus: (00,12,000), (11,11,0,10,0,0), (440300), (220200) Is it time to leave this town and start again Somewhere far away where no one knows your name The streets you're standing on, a hollowed out flame A picture perfect photograph Burning out the past Home...Home.... Is time a bullet hole, you're staring straight at Electrifies your soul, like wind against a mast This life you know so best, different from all the rest We're chasing all the waves And breaking through the crest Going Home... Home... Home.... Home Is it time to leave this town and forget about the rain Somewhere far away where no one knows your name The streets we're dreaming on, You know we'll start again

A Sky Full Of Stars - Music Video
Not sure if this has been mentioned yet but... Pause at 2:20. Or watch that segment from 2:13 where it shows the tv. Doesn't it look like Chris dancing, Will playing the drums and Jonny play a black Fender Tele? It could be nothing but it looks an awful lot like the boys.

MUSICAL EQUIPMENT
Here's my new guitar. Bought it a few weeks ago from a guy on Craigslist. It's a 2000(made in '99 actually) Larrivee D-02 laminate Limited Edition Model. I guess it's limited edition because they didn't make many laminate models of them. I love it, just have to get used to playing with a dreadnought body.

Ghost Story
That yeah part reminds me of Toronto 2006. He said Yeah multiple times during What If I believe. Sounds nostalgic.

Ghost Story - Chris's Chords and Tuning
Yes he does change his guitar quite often. Why should he do that? That's up to Chris. Why don't we ask Oracle hmm?

Ghost Story - Chris's Chords and Tuning
I believe all the acoustic guitar songs on Ghost Stories are tuned to DADGAD. At least Ink and Oceans are. Both capo 4, both same guitar and positioning of the GS symbols. Check it out.

Ghost Story Lyrics
Maybe I'm just a ghost A spectre on a road

I didn't hear that. Maybe that's in another verse. We only heard about 2-3 verses.

O Lyrics
Let's see how far I'm off O(Fly On) A flock of birds Harboring/hovering above Just a flock of birds (How I think of love? ) And I always Look up to the sky And before the dawn And still I always Sometimes they (all?) Sometimes they are all gone A flock of birds Harboring above (In a smoke of time?) (Rise?) (Following them up?) Still I always Look up to the sky (Breathe before the dawn?) As they fly away (The minute they arrive?) Next you know they are gone Fly on
