  • mite see them at 93 feet east

    i saw them at borderline before and they were good. twin cinema can be a bit too sugary pop too listen to, but they are great live.

    BESPECKLEDDAZ | 22 Mar '07, 15:11 | X
  • Still never been to the Borderline

    Is it nicer than 93? Considering I don't like that venue at all.

    roastthemonaspit | 22 Mar '07, 15:16 | X
    • yeah

      i'd say so. it feels a lot more intimate.

      guntrip @roastthemonaspit | 22 Mar '07, 15:27 | X
      • compared to 93 ft east?!?!?!

        shadyadie @joshua_t | 22 Mar '07, 16:37 | X
      • well

        hopefully on the 20th I'll already be at Glastonbury so Borderline it is!

        roastthemonaspit @guntrip | 22 Mar '07, 15:39 | X
        • what the hell?

          any other shows elsewhere?

          No?

          TheWildSon | 22 Mar '07, 15:19 | X

          • is she playing with them?

            because the three times I've seen them she hasn't :-(

            dan_thw @guntrip | 22 Mar '07, 15:28 | X
            • she's playing some

              american dates with them after her current tour ends, so maybe?

              guntrip @dan_thw | 22 Mar '07, 15:28 | X
              • i hope so

                though Kathryn Calder is equally lovely

                Brooner @guntrip | 22 Mar '07, 15:31 | X
            • Maybe they're playing Glastonbury

              It is the following weekend.

              Captain_Mustard @dan_thw | 22 Mar '07, 15:29 | X
        • will someone put me up for two nights in june?

          preferably the 19th and 20th?
          also: OMGOMGOMGOMG.

          fishplums | 22 Mar '07, 15:29 | X
        • Hmm

          tempting.

          Though when I saw them last they played Use It and Twin Cinema as their first 2 songs last time I saw them.... talk about not holding anything back!

          Darcy | 22 Mar '07, 15:31 | X
          • It's ENTIRELY

            about the Spanish Techno.

              BESPECKLEDDAZ @colonol_k | 22 Mar '07, 15:57 | X
              • these two songs especially

                sound like Semisonic.

                Don't deny it.

        • what's bar academy like?

          im assuming horrible

          borderline has to be the best of those

          doctornovocalcords | 22 Mar '07, 16:03 | X
          • out of the three it will probably have the best sound

            but the worst beer.

            dan_thw @doctornovocalcords | 22 Mar '07, 16:06 | X
            • really?

              I might go to that one then. do they usually have decent sound there?

              ive always hated the way things sound at 93 feet east but borderline has always been pretty good.

              doctornovocalcords @dan_thw | 22 Mar '07, 16:22 | X
              • good sound

                no raised stage, very small!

                Jamie_Summers @doctornovocalcords | 22 Mar '07, 16:25 | X
            • you've never been to bar academy have you?

              re. beer.

              shadyadie @dan_thw | 22 Mar '07, 16:38 | X
              • umm

                doesnt it just sell carling?

                dan_thw @shadyadie | 22 Mar '07, 16:45 | X
                • i thought you were talking about the borderline

                  cos that'll be the one with the best sound.

                  shadyadie @dan_thw | 22 Mar '07, 17:30 | X
                  • haha

                    dunno i've seen quiet stuff at the borderline and the sound has been wonderful, but with lots of instruments it might get lost a bit at the borderline. Most of the standing bit is in the middle miles away from the PA on either side I seem to remember, so if you're down the front the sound isnt gonna be great. But then I suppose that's the same at Bar Academy.

                    All three gigs will be great, just go to the one that's nearest!

                    dan_thw @shadyadie | 22 Mar '07, 18:24 | X
        • so whats the

          consensus before i buy tickets???

              Jamie_Summers @Brooner | 22 Mar '07, 16:32 | X
              • .

                you might be in an American? Which one?!

                *fingers crossed for Danny Glover*

                Darcy @Jamie_Summers | 22 Mar '07, 16:32 | X
                • sorry

                  it was jackie onassis

                  Jamie_Summers @Darcy | 22 Mar '07, 16:42 | X
          • 93 Ft East

            I saw them at The Borderline last time. I'd like to see them on a slightly bigger stage.

            Darcy @Jamie_Summers | 22 Mar '07, 16:30 | X
            • I'd be tempted

              to go Borderline. Has a lot of atmosphere. Gets VERY packed and hot though. And smoky.

              Ruby_Tuesday @Darcy | 22 Mar '07, 16:51 | X
              • not on 19/06/2007 tho

                yay!

                alcxxk @Ruby_Tuesday | 22 Mar '07, 18:22 | X
                • hell yeah!

                  Brooner @alcxxk | 22 Mar '07, 18:37 | X
                  • actually no, 1st july

                    :(

                    Brooner @Brooner | 22 Mar '07, 18:40 | X
        • I've seen them at The

          Borderline and 93 before, without Neko. The Borderline is a must see gig. Looking at the size of the venues, I think Neko will be absent at all of them and the organist will do the singing. No great loss, the 'other' girl is a fantastic stand in. Her side band is pretty good too.

          BMS1 | 23 Mar '07, 00:11 | X
        • few bands...

          ...have bored me SO much live...

          saw them with spoon (who were fantastic)

          _IndiElectronica_ | 23 Mar '07, 01:21 | X
          • strange

            Having seen both I'd say the complete opposite. The New Pornographers were great fun, while Spoon, despite having really good songs, were just a little bit dull.

            dan_thw @_IndiElectronica_ | 23 Mar '07, 14:02 | X
            • spoon have good songs

              NP's have nothing to sink my teeth into..

              _IndiElectronica_ @dan_thw | 23 Mar '07, 14:31 | X
        • YAY!

          I think I may be at Borderline of 93 Feet East for my BIRTHDAY!
