  • Hahah! Don't get me wrong I love them but I've heard those songs at all the shows I've been to. I want a show where there is a different atmosphere....
  • I'd like to hear them remade/rearranged with an orchestra though

  • I hear you there. Mind you, you could argue the majority of their songs could easily be reworked with an orchestra.... :-c
  • I can't recall the tracklist from Cecil Sharpe House mind you,

  • Yes, they'd work well. With the acoustics of a church, I'd bet on a few damp eyes

    "its MY favourite song"
  • Careful! Cervus has the monopoly on damp clothing.
    If I were dead, could I do this?
  • Is there really such a thing as Tena Men, or did sartori mock that up??

    If they're sensitive you could buy sound reducing ear plugs? You're supposed to wear them at gigs anyway but really who does? Mind you it's not like you're going to hear stompers like Strict and Train or anything, it should be fairly gentle going.



    Having 1.6 ears or 2.0 ears will make no difference really - I'll be there and the rest of me will be enjoying it enough to compensate for the missing 0.4 :D

    Daft as it may sound, I like the idea of going to a frapp show where I don't hear Train, Strict Machine or Ooh La La.



    Actually, it doesn't sound daft at all. That'll be what the tour later in the year will be for so this pair can be as different as they like to really make a statement. I'm hoping that's exactly the case - new TOU + mostly downtempo rarely played stuff.

    Love Goldfrapp.....
  • Drained.............this week has been dreadful. There have been two redundancies at work and sadly the person that should have gone somehow managed to get off scot free. Although judging by how everything played out in the meeting that may not be the case for much longer. Because I am pretty close to the manager everyone was coming up to me to try and glean info (even though I didn't know anything as she had to keep everything close to her chest) so I am totally shattered as after the event I was the only one she could talk to so I was being approached from both sides. I feel like I need a headspace to rest in.

  • Poor lovely Cervus.... *hug*
  • Yeah, all the best in an awkward sounding situation, Cervus - good will out, I'm sure.

    Yes they exist, I took the photo in Waitrose , so it appears only posh people need them . I hasten to add the only reason I was in there was to find some "bloody blueberries ffs, where do they sell them" , for one of my kids cooking lessons. I must also add that when I took the picture my Mrs did mutter the second line of my signature haha.
