Eek! Looks like I know these people (Meg & Jenn).

Just got my Doves cds yesterday and loving 'em. See you both at the show tonight.

Okay, stupid me forgot to mention my name. Jenn, it's Sheila.

I can't wait for tonight!!! I'm sitting here listening to "Pounding" over and over again and trying (in vain) to get some work done....

I'm about to die from anticipation. I'm SO EXCITED.

(Oh, and hi, Sheila!! )

just got back from the DC show tonight! though there was a little too much bass/reverb at times during both shows (fucking shit acoustics) both bands rocked, Elbow only played for about 40 or 45 minutes, played most of the songs off their album... Doves played a mix of both cds over about 80 mins

great night, the place was jammed, I even got this special 3-track mini-disc of Elbow on the way out which they were giving away!

the Doves' singer/bassist mentioned the World Cup several times, clearly nervous/excited about the England - Brazil matchup! they ended with a sonic jam that I didn't recognize from either album, I think it was just something semi-spontaneous or unreleased, but whatever, they torched the place with that finale which I think might be the b-side "Crunch" but I'm not positive about that... also got a 6-track live cd of radio performance they did, but all songs from their last cd

It's a Sub Sub (Doves's old band) song. You should be able to download a live version online.

Last night was a great show! I wanted to hear more from Elbow, though. Yep, Megan, you're right. Guy Garvey is material. He's so cool. Is anyone jealous of that girl Elaine whom he dedicated "Newborn" to?

Ah, so that's it. I loved it too. And I'm so glad they performed "Here It Comes". I couldn't take my eyes off drummer Andy(?). He looked like he was drumming for his life. That's it. I really wanna learn how to play the drums!

 

[meegannie]

I think that about sums up my evening.

That face is green for a reason. And it's called "envy"!!!
