MERGED-->Idlewild

[meegannie]

I like when he screams "Gertrude Stein said that's enough."

I listened to most of that album today in my car, and all of Remote Part while running at the gym. I've had Self Healer in my head all day too, and I only know like 2 lines to the whole song.

 

[meegannie]

"A song is a beautiful lie."

I also like the song about the punk overcoat. Its name escapes me now. It's probably "Punk Overcoat."

 

[meegannie]

No, wait!! "Chandelier"!!!

 

[u2popmofo]

Hey, did you notice they have a new video up on their site for A Modern Way of Letting Go. Man, The Remote Part is so good. I cant believe they've already released 4 singles off of that album.

 

[meegannie]

I saw that. I can't believe it's taken so long for that album to come out here.

 

[u2popmofo]

Woo hoo, I finally got ahold of a few b-sides I've wanted of theirs! I got Broken Windows, Meet Me At the Harbour, and There's Glory in Your Story. I like em, I like em all!

 

[meegannie]

The French Kicks & Solea are the support in Baltimore. The French Kicks' name sounds familiar, but I have no idea who these bands are.

 

[DiGi]

No idea either....I guess I will have to download. My friend is going to pick up tickets this week for me though...

 

[u2popmofo]

Just thought I'd tell everybody that I was looking at the videos section of www.rollingstone.com and they have 3 videos of Idlewild playing acoustic.

It's pretty cool, the songs they play are: These Wooden Ideas, Roseability, and Self Healer.

 

[meegannie]

So we have tickets now, right, DiGi?

Two people I know just saw Idlewild in Sidney. Now I am even more than EVER! I can't wait. I am bringing millions of things to get signed. And handcuffing myself to Roddy's ankle.

Do you know if the venue allows cameras? I may have to smuggle. I NEED pictures.

ahem....

 

[DiGi]

I just spoke with my friend tonight. He was away the last week, so he will get them for me either tomorrow or Tuesday....so more or less we have them.

I will call Fletchers and ask about cameras for you tomorrow. Maybe i will just finally breakdown and buy a small digital camera, hell I have a Coldplay show to go to this weekend as well.

I am totally fired up for this show. I want to hear Scottish Fiction really bad.

 

[meegannie]

Yay!! Thanks, DiGi!

I want to hear "I Am a Message." And "American English." And "Roseability." And everything else.

 

[meegannie]

I just realized how soon this show is.

 

[meegannie]

 

[u2popmofo]

Lucky suckers.

 

[DiGi]

I just realized how soon this show is.

LOL....

11 days.

 

[meegannie]

I couldn't fall asleep last night because I was so excited. I heard they have Idlewild belts!!

 

[meegannie]

 

[u2popmofo]

Stop shoving in my face. Lucky suckers. Make sure to rock out extra hard just for me.

All I need is a little discourage.

 

[DiGi]

Megan you are cracking me up

 

[meegannie]

I can't help it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You'll always be DISATISFIED!

 

[DiGi]

I listened to 100 broken windows on the way to work this morning. and i will listen to it on the way home. oh and my friend got tickets for us today. finally i called fletchers about cameras but only got a recording. I will ring them back later

 

[meegannie]

Thanks!! Even if I can't take my digital camera, I'd like to be able to take my crappy old normal camera. I want pictures!

 

[dizzy]

Okay, I am up for this. I have their cd, but I'm not that familiar with all the songs. Should still be fun though!

 

[meegannie]

Yes, it WILL be!

 

[meegannie]

one week!

 

[u2popmofo]

When I Argue, I See Shapes

 

[jesseu2]

[meegannie]

Hmm.... the easiest to find are probably "American English," "Little Discourage," "Roseability," "You Held the World In Your Arms," and "Roseability." There're some videos on their website at http://www.idlewild.co.uk.
