btw


would you guys believe me if I told you, when it comes to Damien's song 'The Blowers Daughter'.....

...that before I learnt it was about a jazz player, I thought that he was really a glass blower!




had to share! LOL!


I think the 'O' album is beautiful, he has a soft voice but energetic enough to grab the hold of your heart and get it pumping.

I saw Damo for the third time last weekend. He's better to watch indoors.

I'm jealous

I saw him at the Greek last night. Unreal!

Anyone know where I can find the song that Vivyienne Long did?

By he's better to watch indoors, I meant to say the two times I've seen him indoors were a lot better. This being at a festival, I didn't enjoy it as much. His sound doesn't translate well to a field of 65,000 people.

What song was it? She did a cover of Yoshimi Pt. 1 when I saw Damien in May. It's available (with a few other songs) on her EP entitled Birdtalk.

I just found it

"never leave you". It's a rap, much more fun watching her rap with a cello but still enjoyable.

The Greek is outdoors but a really small ampitheatre in the side of a mountain. I can't imagine he'd be as good at a big festival. he did the unplugged acoustic and it was incredible

We saw him open at the Greek for Fiona last year....so so!

He did that in May when I saw him at the Bass Performance Hall. Cannonball, as it were.


Did he close your show with his Cheers Darlin antics? It's a pretty interested concept.

It was Cannonball.

He did close with Cheers Darlin. I thought it was better/longer than the versions on youtube. The guy can really act. People seemed certain he was wasted. He ended it by leaning against a lampost on stage and taking a piss. Only he can do that and still seem charming.

He told lots of long stories the second half of the show. He seems sincerely pleased as if he's recalling these things for the first time. I could listen to him all day.
