    Glasgow 14th July

    in After The Show

    The band were amazing, great to finally see them on this tour. We flew over from Ireland just for them and it was an awesome festival, very small.

     

    The band were walking around all day and anybody could have met them. First I met was Mikael, he was looking at the t shirt and vinyl stalls, very cool and sorta softly spoken guy and he said that he wasnt sure exactly about Ireland, but the plan is Europe again in Fall sometime.

     

    Then John was having a few beers and watching a band in one of the tents with a friend and all day was walking around, Nels was walking about and later you could see him and Jeff in the backstage chatting and sitting around.

     

    Then later that night at 8 Andrew Bird was in the BBC 6 tent, Jeff and Glenn watched the show from the side and were later joined by Pat. Wilco were on at 9 so they headed off about 8.45(guess they dont have a long pre show getting ready ritual).

     

    It was generally the same all weekend, most bands were just chilling out and walking around, the place was so small and had good vibes, def no kind of hassle.

     

    Also, set list seems right but Hummingbird def wasnt played, was cool to hear "I'm Always In Love" . Jeff was laughing and seemed to loosen up and have fun from about half way through.

    Latitude?

    Was looking at Latitude but ended up going for Indian Summer Fest in Glasgow instead, cheaper Ryanair flights from Dublin.

     

    Wilco are headlining on the Saturday night.

     

    Was hoping to see Roskilde setlist to get an idea if they're festival setlist has changed much since the last Europe fests but so far no joy.

     

     

    Teenage Fanclub at Connect? Theres a special guest to be announced for Indian Summer on Main Stage Saturday evening around 6 or 7 so since its in Scotland maybe Teenage Fanclub????

    SBS CD extras again sorry

    A torrent is no problem, but the point is I wanna hear a show live, why else bother.

     

    If downloading a show is good enough why would anybody tune in at all?

     

    The main issue is the fact that the problem hasnt been addressed by anybody in an official capacity, makes no sense at all.

    SBS CD extras again sorry

    Yeah the tracks are on the net, but the real problem is the next exclusive webcast where you need to have the SBS enhanced CD in you're drive.

     

    Most of us spent half the London show trying to work it and there hasnt been much said about it since.

    If we knew the content wasnt available from the start then we'd have bought the US version on the net.
