---------------------

in the hideout. tix 10 bucks in and special guest appearances on the night. we've a day off, so the lads would love to do a longer set than 40 mins...expect a good hour or two...have fun. cx

oooh its too bad i dont live closer to chicago! [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

i'm coming down from Minneapolis!!!



can't wait to see a FULL long headlining set from them finally, sick of the 40-60 min sets i've seen em do previously :D

[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

hmmmmmmmm... what are our friends damien, lisa, vyv, shane, and tomo up to that night?


i wish i lived closer to chicago... that's gonna be an incredible show for sure... i'll have to tell my friends in chicago to hit it up...

Did anyone go to the show? I want details. I heard Lisa sang with them. I want to know more!

Look on the Frames board - by all accounts a fantastic gig [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img][img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]

which Frames board are you talking about Angela? i don't see anything on theframes.ie board about it yet.



btw, the gig was f**king brilliant



2:15. Lisa sang on about 3-5 songs i think, including a cover of Mic
Cristopher's "Skylarkin". she was standing just to my right along the
wall all night, singing in my ear (well not directly in my ear mind
you, but :), made it even that much more amazing :)



i'm goiong to try and get somewhat of a setlist together later. the did
2 Pixies covers (Where Is My Mind? & Gigantic (w/ glen on bass), a
Wild Oldham cover "tomorrow's too long", and a bunch of other great
stuff :)



btw "the Wheels" were a great opener! :)



lisa was the only member of Damien's band that i saw all night though
to be honest, but if anyone i would have liked to see there, i'd say
it'd the lovely ms. hannigan :).

How you survived thatin one pieceI'll never know [img]smileys/smiley2.gif[/img]


Well, you know...it's Chicago, not Ireland, so there are only brief mentions on the Frames board: one is here: http://fake.theframes.ie/v4/comm/msg...layMessage.php ?lparent_thread=26270&lchild_thread=0 and the other is here: http://fake.theframes.ie/v4/comm/msg...layMessage.php ?lparent_thread=26255&lchild_thread=0


Just reading the set list made me cry! I wish I would have been there! Sounds just beyond fantastic, you lucky SOB [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

with the help of that setlist, i'm sure the order isn't 100% correct, but i know bits and pieces of it
are very much correct, they def opened w/ Santa Maria, and the trio of
pavement tune, revelate, and where is my mind? is definitely correct,
as that's when the show really blew itself wide open (imo) :)





lisa sang on like 3-5 songs i believe, and was singing along out in the
crowd almost all night :) (she was standing right next to my friend and
i along the wall)





santa maria


plateau (jane says tag)

Sounds simply brilliant! [img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]


So....did somebody record it?

god i hope so. :)



[img]smileys/smiley4.gif[/img]

Sounds Great! no boots, i assume?

La.

grrrrrrrrrrrrr..... glen was going to do skylarkin' for me(as per my request) in detroit the other night, but it wasn't the right crowd for it at all... then lisa was all excited about it and dammit, of course they do it when i'm not there... hahaha... even after i told lisa that she couldn't do it without me there and that she was only ever allowed to sing in a closet if i'm not there... oi oi oi...
i neeeeeeeeeeed to see a frames headlining gig... grrrr

alas, glad you all had fun... jealous jealous jealous [img]smileys/smiley11.gif[/img]

What sort of song is "Devil Town?" I'm assuming you don't mean "Dance the Devil (down)." Not that it really matters considering the extraordinariness of the gig, I was just curious, and you (who had the great good fortune to be there) seem to know your Frames.

'Devil Town' is a Daniel Johnston ( http://www.hihowareyou.com/) cover they've been doing for well over a year now.


You can hear that song on the video that is streaming on their new label's web site: http://www.anti.com/artist.php?id=86705
(where it says "01/29/04 See video of The Frames performing live on Irish TV")
