Band of Horses - KEXP live podcast

Glad it was good - was looking to catch Iron and Wine but they're playing Shepherds Bush Empire which is an absolute bitch to get to for me via train from Cambridge. Hopefully I'll catch 'em at ATP next year!

I have a nice living room and a spare room to put Jeff up in! I try not to think about those living room shows, I just get jealous very, very quickly!

I think one of the main reasons we're all pissed is that we don't get to see Wilco very often. I'm lucky, I can pop into London to see the band when they play their one-off shows there and when Tweedy playing his solitary solo show in the Capital. Now, you can't deny, that they seem to be on a constant tredmill around the USA, you guys get to see them quite a bit. So we're just miffed that they cancelled on us and not someone else! It just feels like we're second class and our dates can be cancelled at the drop of the hat. I'm sure they'll rescheduled and it'll be fine. But we're just mad

That is what I thought... but, being Welsh, I can't comment on anything with a woolly coat... *ahem* And it's ALWAYS eggs with gammon, pineapple - never! The pub down the road from where I work offers you upto 6 eggs when you order gammon and chips...

It's gammon with 2 eggs that you want...

Great record, like The Twilight Sad mixed with The Wedding Present...

Your cockney geezer impression is coming along nicely! You just missed the "mate" at the end of it. EDIT: Best Buy won't ship to the UK

I guess we're just going to have to wait and see. I'm as pissed off as the next person, but we need to accept their reason at the moment and see what happens next. There's too many IF'S at the moment to get too wound up about.

I've got a number at Ticketmaster 08444 999 999 - they'll refund straight onto the card (minus some of their "fees", which IS a disgrace). Just hope we don't have to wait too long for them to come back.

Go back to the Astoria in London - that would be great...

If anything that record is OVER-rated, haven't been more disappointed in a record after someone recommending it to me. As for my choice, there's plenty to mention but one that always sticks: Mark Hollis' self-titled solo album is criminally under heard and has slipped under the radar and disappeared into obscurity.

I've still not had any notification from Ticketweb though about refunding tickets...

Ditto - it seems very short notice so I wonder what's come up. It's gotta be something big...

This just doens't make any sense - it's $29 in the US, but
