August 30th/31st (haha its true) vicar street gig review

Timeé · 08-30-2006, 11:46 PM

best giig ever guys

it was excellenté

ask seanie bumpie for the setlist he was takin it down beside me.
the gig offered everything damien rice has to offer.

he blew the audience away with his new and wacky entourage of performers.

Vyv did a solo

LISA PLAYED THE LOWDEN!!!! for a song
I just got one of those brown elephant t-shirts they were selling afterwards and im wearin it right now.

there were tear jerking moments, moments you wanted to join in on rootless tree and sing "**** YOU" and times when you felt him croon

i was trying to catch lisas eye alnight (i was in the front row!) and i caught it during the blowers daughter and blew her a kiss

Beevers_uk · 08-30-2006, 11:48 PM

Ahhh bless you Timee!!

Those T-shirts rock my socks!! I want one!! You get any pics on your swanky phone?

Timeé · 08-30-2006, 11:51 PM

no because i was forbidden by a combination of the girl beside me and Sean bumpman.

at the end of eskimo i tried to hug the girl ( i dont know her ) but she told me to go away.

ah well.

[quote=Miss Pink.i just dont like being hugged by ppl i dont no.[/QUOTE]

ehem thats not true. you were hugging your friend all night and were lapping it up.

i wouldnt mind but it wasnt like i was grabbing your bra strap or anything

Timeé · 08-31-2006, 12:11 AM

hence my point is battered and bruised

Miss Pink · 08-31-2006, 12:15 AM

agh..im not getting into this...

i was huggung my friend all night BECAUSE I KNOW HER AND SHE'S A DEAR FRIEND...

when u hugged me..out of know where, it was odd considering i was just standing beside u, i didnt no u, it was just out of the blue unexpected and i didnt like it. simple as.

im gonna come out as the bitch in this one...but what can u do? iv known my friend i was with for years, hugs ok, seán iv known and pm'd and writted to and traded with etc since 2004...hugs are fine there....

u dont just turn around and suddenly hug sum1 u dont no....im sure it was meant out of kindness but, its not sth u do

yay tim!! sounds like you had a fantastic time!! wooooo!!

*awaits bumpman's setlist*

god · 08-31-2006, 05:31 PM

I have a few things to say.

Firstly to the guy from NORWAY last night that sold me his ticket for cost price, YOU ARE A TRUE ESKIMO even though you aren't a member on here. For the record crew, he tried to sell his ticket on the DAMIEN RICE forum for the last 2 days and got no offers at all. Wherever that is, I told him to get on here in future.

To the guy that cut my grass on buying a ticket, that was fine at first when you and your lady missed the show the night before. However to do it again an hour later and tried to tell this guy above that I was a tout and would sell if for $100 EUR is un-ethical. The fact you call yourself a DAMIEN RICE fan is a shame to his fans. You were nothing short of arrogant and unhonest last night. As I believe in KARMA I am sure yours will be coming. If you are on this list I would like to hear your defence in regard to this matter as I am sure there isn't one.

Now to the fans. I went the night before and I consider myself a bit of a musical conniseur (however you spell it). I see probably 200 gigs a year and have been watching live music for over 20 years now. I am currently on a round the world trip purposely to watch live music. I just spent 4 months in the USA doing as many festivals and gigs as I could and yes, I caught Damien with Fionna.

Well I was mighty impressed with the show the 1st night however he was very quiet and submissive as mentioned on this group yesterday. Don't get me wrong, the show was outstanding.

Last nights show however made the 1st night look like a BRITTANY SPEARS concert (not that I would ever go to one). The setting, the atmosphere, the sound, the magic of that show will live with me forever. He done a massive repotoire of songs and I couldn't of asked for more. Starting solo was just magical and then having the 3 girls join him before the band was even more impressive.

I knew from the 1st song that we were in for something special. The show just got better and Damien certainly seemed to be more into the gig tonight than last night. I was about 4 deep right in line with Viv.

The encore had no less than 8 songs in it, with 3 being by the girls, each doing a solo. Unlike the night before there were no requests taken and there didn't need to be. He done so much.

Any person that didn't recognise the brilliance of this show last night I believe has a lot to learn about live music. Whether you are a Damien fan or not last nights show was OUTSTANDING. I may never be back in IRELAND but Ireland, Dublin, and Damien are forever scarred into my memory.

LONG LIVE DAMIEN and may he come to AUSTRALIA REAL SOON

gODLY !!!

PS > Stay Real All

borneoman · 08-31-2006, 05:49 PM

So the second to last song is the one that people referred to as Wanted or Wanted to be Wanted during the US tour??
Is Rat within the Grain the final title?

tywy · 08-31-2006, 06:22 PM

god i think you were standing behind me last night :P I recognised an aussie accent

Bumpman · 08-31-2006, 06:27 PM

In the interest of ending all outstanding bets and arguments that have been like a bad rash in their willingness to go away, here are two song titles for you. If anyone wants to continue arguing this out you'll have to take up the issue with the band, because they're the one's who decided on these titles;

1. Coconut Skins
2. Rat In The Grain

songbirdrach · 08-31-2006, 07:11 PM

I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous i couldnt go

Cant go the picnic either.
So i will loose myself in this grief and sulk for a while.
*sigh*

SisterMidnight · 09-02-2006, 02:31 AM

i like hugs

but seriously, can we drop the hug conversation already?

Yeah, you're probably right. You've been to a lot of gigs... nobody else has a clue.

superted · 09-06-2006, 11:55 AM

hello there

does anybody know where i can Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots by Vyvienne Long. Heard it at Vicar St on wed 30th.

thanks

Bumpman · 09-06-2006, 01:12 PM

What you're really looking for is a 34.28mb .wav file, and that's a very rare thing, you certainly wouldn't find it in this topic anyway, and there's no way in hell it would be nine posts above your request or anything...

superted · 09-07-2006, 09:56 AM

Think I need new glasses. Thanks for pointing that out

Sarcasm is meant to be witty, no need to be a dick. We're all friendly eskimos here

Bumpman · 09-07-2006, 03:03 PM

I didn't mean to be a dick, no-one else was pointing it out though.

Miss Pink · 09-07-2006, 03:04 PM

sean you should take advice from that tent..."dont be a dick"
