invisible_r Posted August 27, 2005 Report Posted August 27, 2005 it was very hard finding tickets as it sold out very very quickly, but anyway, my tickets have finally arrived ! will post an update after the 25th of october. just wanted to share my excitment for now!!
Earth-Angel Posted August 27, 2005 Report Posted August 27, 2005 Most excellent! I'd love to see them live! So energetic! You'll have to post a full gig breakdown for us Rachel!
invisible_r Posted August 27, 2005 Author Report Posted August 27, 2005 this is not that relevant, but i had a dream which i think was the result of getting all excited about the gig! i met the lead singer of the kaiser chiefsin a pub, and he was really nice and we were hanging out and then he tried to kiss me or something and my boyfriend got pissed off and broke up with me! weird.
SoulGirl Posted September 28, 2005 Report Posted September 28, 2005 god, i've only just recently heard the album and i love it!! when i first heard them i wrote them off as another 'the' band but the album is brilliant - a throwback to punk but still really fresh and edgy - i love it!
invisible_r Posted October 24, 2005 Author Report Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) it's tomorrow, i am sooo excited! haven't been to a gig in a very long time! shame we only managed to get upper circle tickets . oh well, i am still excited, woo hoo! Edited October 24, 2005 by Guest grammar check
Earth-Angel Posted October 24, 2005 Report Posted October 24, 2005 Oh have fun Rach! Let us know all about it! It's been so long since we went to a gig
invisible_r Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Posted October 26, 2005 I have one word, AMAZING! ok let me give any of you who are interested a comprehensive review (although i am half a sleep so excuse any mistakes) first band that came out where the cribbs, a kinda punky band from Diggs' s hometown. they were pretty good but bad at the same time, i think their songs were good but the sound was pretty loud and chaotic, so probably not the best of live bands. second band was maximo park, they were sooo good! i shall be writting about them in the get the word out section, but basically very energetic, their music was great and great crowd pleasers. the kaiser chiefs were fantastic! started with a weird little clip and then they played "money for nothing" on the speakers and they appeared. obviously they only have one album so they played all of that plus a couple of new tracks, which indicate that good things are to be expected. their energy was incredible, amazing crowd pleasers, with him pulling a girl out and dancing with her, him crowd surfing, and in general interacting with the people, which i trully love in a gig. the crowd went crazy with most songs, but especially " I predict a riot" and "oh my god", which was the closing track. all in all, I had an amazing time, wish I didn't have upper circle tickets because they wouldn't let us get up and I wanted to dance, but hey, that's all we could get. so if they are your kind of thing, definitely see them live if you get the chance.
Earth-Angel Posted October 26, 2005 Report Posted October 26, 2005 Oh that sounds awesome Rachel! I love it when a gig has energy and the show includes the crowd! That must have been so much fun! They looked like they were realy putting their all into it when they played on Live 8 - I can only imagine how much better they would be live!
Batman Posted October 28, 2005 Report Posted October 28, 2005 can you fill me in on what he means when he says "watching the people get larry?" It doesn't make any sense to me. British slang by any chance?
invisible_r Posted October 28, 2005 Author Report Posted October 28, 2005 lairy is british slang, it means loud and abusive. The song refers to the closing time of pubs where every everyone is drunk (watching the people get lairy) and thus have arguments (i predict a riot, and if there's anybody else in here that doesn't want to be out there...) here's an english to american dictionary
Batman Posted October 29, 2005 Report Posted October 29, 2005 Oh I get it now. I thought they meant Larry, as in a person's name. That dictionary is pretty funny!
invisible_r Posted October 29, 2005 Author Report Posted October 29, 2005 I posted some songfacts explaining the whole song, it's pretty funny I think!
