Default Colours of Ostravia

Coming to watch Marketa Irglova - after entering the room Damien was just tuning a guitar (with a really really failed haircut :P) - Surprise, Surprise O.O
Anyway, damien joined in to play "falling slowly" by Glen and Marketa at the end of her set - i did not see that one coming... taped this with my mobile. will upload to youtube later on. Really nice.

Damiens own Gig was just... super magic. Best Show in Years in my opinion!! No more words needed. Standard Setlist starting of with the professor, followed by the usual stuff. But in perfection. Hail to the Drugs he took that night.

A (cute) gurl in front of me (pretty much in the very front) was taping the whole gig. Hopefully it will find its way to youtube so you can catch a glimpse of what was going on.
He did cheers darling with a girl from the audience again who made him look like he probably was behaving that very night.

wow, falling slowly already found its way to youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXm0eCO6Q7U

If it were anyone else I wouldn't have thought twice bout this. But the fact tat it's Damo and marketa together gives me pause.

Revenge for Lisa and Glen "touring" together for so long? I know they used to before she and Damien were an item. Think they started back up and D is pissed?

Conspiracy! Conspiracy!

Don't read too much into it. At his age and considering their history, I doubt Damien would be as childish as getting back at Lisa that way.

But he's so childish. A little bit wildish. With his rum diddly dum diddly yum diddly. He's so deep.

All kidding aside. I think he can absolutely be that childish. Hence the hot press article to try to get her back.

they did it alright, but i admit it sounds weird to me (as it is with glen and lisa, still not convinced by the two of them either).

regardless, i think none of them are making a big deal, so why would us? it was enjoyable in the end...

i´m glad you had a good time and i´m looking forward to the videos (i couldn´t see much of his new hair cut, hehe).

He asked for a girl who has a boyfriend (because he needs such a girl for the next song) and picked one from the very front where he could communicate with the girl and her boyfriend.

Naturally she always started drinking later because damien is directing/leading the whole act, but she always finish earlier than him, yet she still looked elegantly superior while damien looked a bit strained/uptighted with the fast drinking, which emphasises the nature of the whole story - struggeling boy and unreachable girl.

And here's the Video of "Falling Slowly" i took.

Thanks for your video! They sound great together. They should do that more often.

And for more random talk about his hair... I noticed a very cute little bold spot when I saw him on best kept secret festival...

you can find quite a few videos of the gig on youtube. Hopefully the girl from the very front will post her recording of the whole gig.
Grab them

Jumping into the gossip for a sec - I thought this too (but didn't know about a past Glen/Lisa relationship!) and also think that although Marketa has obviously moved on in some ways (she's pregnant?!congrats!) she must not be happy that Glen has all but given away their song to Lisa.

OK. Shame on me. I'm done.

Ever since Damien did that Hot Press interview I believe that the topic is now open for discussion. Especially because the "gossip" has had such a massive impact on the music.

I so wish he hadn't opened that bag in Hot Press - too much info, kind of ruined many of the songs for me.

Damien and Lisa, Lisa and Glen, Glen and Marketa, Marketa and Damien, Damien and Glen? Lisa and Marketa? free lovin hippies! (j/K) As long as they keep making beautiful music, it's alright with me.

Who knows what it looks like to Marketa, but when we last talked to Glen, he was still pretty uncomfortable playing the song without her, but did it anyway because the audience wouldn't shut up about it, basically. I assume with Lisa it's just marginally more comfortable than singing with some random person, and people want to hear it anyway, so!

Not that this is even that relevant, but eh. It's late and I figured why not! :P

Well yes of course to all the obvious points. And who knows, indeed. One can only speculate, based on what's transpired in the past couple of years.
