MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Anyone heard the new single? I really like it, hope to see them play live in November, tickets a bit pricey though.
Silver Trembling Hands? I heard it on Adam & Joe, but it doesn't seem to be on Limewire yet 😯
I only half heard the new single a week or so ago, it was a bit experimental for my liking but it just might take a couple of listens before it clicks.
I saw them live on the last tour and they were amazing - one of the best gigs ever.
now I am jealous.
The new album is meant to be a bit of a departure from the last few. A bit more experimental!
LoulaB - you have some seroius musical taste...first replying to my Pavement thread and now bringing up Wayne et al - yes I've heard it and love it...but with a forum name like mine what do you expect 😀
btw - i was in Moerzine when the tickets went on sale - ever tried using ticketmaster in a rush on the side of a mountain using 3g on a phone? by the time i got to a wifi spot they'd gone - looks like it'll be me dealing with the usual tout faces on the night!

Took pics of them at Bestival last year- their live show blew my mind...
Yoshimi, there are still tickets available for the Portsmouth gig, which is on a friday too. I looked at it and considered going, but I've seen them twice before, and I'd just want them to be playing the whole of Yoshimi 🙂
😥Do you realizeeeeeeeee that everyone you know...... someday.... will die?
Like the new stuff, but I'm looking forward to seeing them in Brum even more. My favourite band 😀 and despite the fact that Wayne sounds like a cat being neutered without sedation, the best band I've seen live ever.
How can you not like a band that has hoards of Supermen/Teletubbies/Santas/animals dancing at the side of the stage.
LoulaBellla, You're missing this....[url=
Yay I bought a ticket for the Portsmouth gig, I cant wait!
Yoshimi you have good musical taste too! Im loving the Spinto Band at the moment and Les Savy Fav!
I also love furry dancing rabbit people animal costume craziness!!!
Good work Loula! you have fun in Portsmouth 😀
BTW, look out for Yoshimi, she's a black belt in Karate....
Silver Trembling Hands? I heard it on Adam & Joe, but it doesn't seem to be on Limewire yet
Adam and Joe had an awesome playlist on Saturday. Saturday feels like Saturday again.
Stephen!
This site may have shite taste in bikes.....but musical taste looks a bit more like it.
Anyone ever go to ATP?
Sorry, but what's ATP? (obviously far too uncool for school... 🙁 )
Yes, went to Breeders ATP this year. Also went to a few when it was in Sussex, Shellac and Autechre curated those two. Brilliant concept for a festival. Musically I loved them all, the minehead site is much better than camber sands though.
ATP started as a festival where the organisers pick a band, then that band chooses all the other bands. They mix it up a bit now so sometimes it's 50/50 ATP/band and other times the fans pick 50%. Makes for an eclectic mix of music, so you'd see bands you might not consider normally.
Just Coming!
My first ATP was the Slint one at Camber Sands, last one was ATP vs the fans (Minehead), Shellac were ace, Built to Spill were amazing and I met them, they were lovely.
I agree Minehead is better, I have never seen so many pale Indie boys in a swimming pool all at the same time!
Its the best festival, no tents, having a chalet rocks, all cooking in the kitchen, meeting your neighbour and popping in and out of other chalets for parties. Its cool that the bands stay with the fans too so you never know who your rooming next door too. Some late night poker games went on at the Shellac digs.
Still the best live act out there!
Like the new stuff, but I'm looking forward to seeing them in Brum even more
Well I hope for your sake its not at the 'new' Academy... 🙁
Thankyou Loula - just got tickets for Brum.
OHH - what's wrong with the new academy?
ATP? Went to all of them up to my last one in 2003 (I buggered off abroad for a few years at that point...) Had a great stoned zabriskie point-esque afternoon at the Autechre curated one, ooh, feel the hot sand pouring through my fingers...And discovering the adult sized trikes in the storage shed the same year was a highlight...great drunken water pistol duels and chases on the paths inbetween the chalets 😀
Going to ATP next year, should have a STW piss up in my chalet!
Going to Manchester, third time I've seen them, I couldn't be more excited. Silver Trembling Hands is a belter, it's going to be a great night...
