    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    Neil's albums are better understood seen live I think. I had Everyone Is Here written off as some faux-folk, but after seeing it live it made a lot more sense and now I would consider it a really great album. Time On Earth is the same way, but I agree you could trim the fat ala Woodface...

    A Day In The Life. If you aren't going Greek, what show are you going to?

    I'm going to see them on a Saturday night. You should have a good time Lila, they are doing wicked by all reports. You might even score a Beatles cover if your lucky! I take it Halup is hitting the Greek Theatre too?

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    Never Be The Same got a run at the Denver show. I have come to collect my winnings Halup! :wink: Hole In The River, Chocolate Cake, Whisper & Moans, She Goes On, How Will You Go, Catherine Wheels & Not The Girl You Think You Are have all reared their heads as well at one point or another.

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    I'm sure the boots will be as expensive or as cheap as people want them to be. It just depends where you look. Surely Anyone Can Tell was superseeded by Everything Is Good For You. The relationship between the two is similar to that of The Fly & Lady With The Spinning Head, wouldn't you...

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    After the first show & the warm up you can add three more songs to the list... Catherine Wheels, Not The Girl You Think You Are & Italian Plastic. Plus live soundboards are being made available of all shows by Kufala... awesome. :up:

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    Mostly Frenz to be honest, plus a lot of bootlegs have come out. Maybe one or two from the TITM list. It's not exciting as the Finn Bros lists were because every night had some huge surprise - but they are still doing their bit tossing it around. It cropped up on the One All tour and got...

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    This is normal as. It happened on Woodface too, Rikki Faatar played on all the Finn/Finn tracks, not Paul - even though Paul played on all the demos for them which were subsequently released with some versions of the album. Confused? Good.

    Awesome Halup! Getting propper setlists out of these showcase gigs is like getting blood from a stone. On the set front, by my count we have: Played (37): Mean To Me, World Where You Live, Don't Dream It's Over, Love You 'Til The Day I Die, Something So Strong. Into Temptation, When You...

    Australias favourite album

    COBL start with Great Truckin' Songs of the Renaissance and work your way through chronologically. Being in Melbourne it shouldn't be too hard to track down their shit, and it is shit.

    Lila :wave: I can't think of a better present for a kiddies birthday than a nice Crowded House ticket. But I'm sure in LA you'll have more than a few dozen times to catch them in the next year or so. Did you catch the Ghostwriters on the Live Earth stream. Great cover (????) of When The...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHCZCRghzc0 Thats the first, albiet half hearted attempt, in the warm up to Coachella where they are pondering what awaits them playing before RATM. They did it again last week to apparently a bit more polished. It should be good fun, did you check out that...

    first crowded house album after reunion: time on earth

    I'm sure your knowledge on more practical issues outstrips mine. At the moment just Sydney I, Sydney II & prolly Bris. If Uni checks out and some face tickets pop up for Melbourne I might pop down there as well. Just wait and see on that. I was pretty damn close to going down for that but...

    You will still get a minimum of ~5 songs off Recurring Dream. What those are is what is up in the air. You couldn't gurantee you would definatly hear Don't Dream it's over, but you could gurantee you would hear one of DDIO, WWY or BBHS at very least. For example Live Earth was my fifteenth...

    Should New Zealand join Australia?

    I'm pretty sure NZ still has a standing invitation from Australia which merely requires a "yes" vote in a referendum in NZ to make it a state. Of course the mere mention of a referendum (or even a merged currency - given NZ just introduced new coinage last year) would be political suicide...
