The Long Winters

london? awesome!

i'm so happy i actually just did jump for joy.

yeah, i'm gutted, as JRod doesnt show up on a lot of listings where the 15th is concerned, particularly the mailout from the promoters.

i cannot make the borderline, i can only make the 15th.. but i quite like Centro-Matic, so this will have to do.

:(

oh man, LW played with Centro at the Spitz..

maybe i should raid my savings and get them to both come play in my house.

yeah, it was really really good, as i recall. maybe Keane should bring them over here or something.

not that i'd go and see Keane.. but.. y'know..

personally i'm holding out for it on 8-track, possibly with footage from their current tour with Keane to be out before the end of 2006 exclusively on Betamax.

god i love TMBG.

hey maybe i can convince the Johns to bring TLW over to England with them next time they come over! roll on 2007..!

i have good feelings about this, y'all. news of its release has even been covered here in the UK by Drowned in Sound which is a pretty big thing i think. that site is awesome.

if you make good friends with Keane (i hear they're nice wusses), maybe they can get the LWs some shows over in the UK - i promise to whip customs into shape this time, and you'll hopefully get paid more than £5..?

permission to be excited.

they were only a 3-man Long Winters for about a year, you'll get used to it being 4 again before you know it!

it's just like a throat sweet but specifically designed for singers, so you gain the ability to sing before you get over whatever caused it.

it's made with approximately 90% magic, like Throat Coat.

if its a last-ditch thing before the gig, you could try getting hold of some Vocal Zone. that'll get you through, as long as youre not doing a gig per day.. then you still might be a bit ropey.

i don't have a thesis to write, but the only gig i have forthcoming is the Presidents of the United States of America(!)

as you can imagine, i'm practically on my knees here.

dammit i'm the only person left in the world connected with a dial up modem.. i just aint made for internet streamin'

i wish the UK had a station like KEXP, or it was available on digital TV or something.

having no wide-reaching independent station.. just.. sucks

count me in - what a fantastic cd.

woo! someone else in the UK with a decent enough music taste to be here.

i'm liking this.

i'm so jealous.. and happy for you of course!

have fun.

i think i remember them doing it last winter in england. i didn't know Cinnamon Girl, so i did kinda wonder what the hell was going on.

i'm all better now though.
