Camera Obscura

[virtually dead]

Anyone going to see them play this year?
half a person and I are going to see them play the Barowlands in Glasgow if anyone wants to join us

 

[Superhans]

Saw them play live for free and Traceyanne so flirted with me, so suck on that.

They're on George Lamb's show today.

It wasn't up to much, he's crap at interviews anyway.

 

[Kewpie]

Lovely song.

 

[Raphael Lambach]

One of my "most of all" bands.

 

[jesuisbryony]

Lovely song.

It is indeed.

They're releasing 'The Blizzard', a Jim Reeves song, as a Christmas single too. Probably.

 

[vaca peluda]

Hey Lloyd, I'm ready to be heartbroken....

Beautiful stuff.

off strike

First time seeing Camera Obscura on this tour last night in Brooklyn and they absolutely blew me away. One of my top five shows of the year. The pacing was perfect and the band sounded spot on.

Oh and I got to meet Tracyanne at their instore apperance at Other Music in the city and got a hug and a pic with her . Damn she is shorter than I expected. Even slipped her a copy of my band's new cd

here is the setlist from last night

my maudlin careeer
swans
honey in the sun

How was your self imposed strike?

Nice to see you're back.

Any tapes out there?

 

[modrevolve]

I feel refreshed and ready to go

No live recordings yet..There were a couple of guys with professional video cameras so maybe we'll see something.
