Fantastic!

borneoman · 11-16-2014, 03:02 PM

it´s crazy how well it´s filmed, that´s a close-up

and the bit when he mentions he wanted to cancel it all but someone made him sit on a chair and play the 8 songs from start to finish and then he realised it was good

Oh, i noticed someone filming on stage in Brussels...
Thanks for sharing!

As you might know, he's the one who did the Blowers Daughter video and also the 10 Days to Barcelona clips

nice! thanks for posting.
what is the 10 days to Barcelona trip?

borneoman · 11-16-2014, 08:39 PM

Damien did a car trip from dublin to barcelona in 2008, 10 days and was supposed to write one song per day

Ryan made a sorta video diary, it's on YT

Hillah · 11-16-2014, 09:15 PM

Thanks I'll look it up. Did it turn up to be something good?

borneoman · 11-16-2014, 09:33 PM

they´re on Ryan le garrec´s Youtube channel

we´ve heard a couple of them... the one from day 5 he played it in Reykjavyk (a bit of it)... the one from day 6 he played it at the Grado aftershow and we know it was also recorded in the studio during the first Iceland sessions back in the day

Hillah · 11-16-2014, 09:58 PM

Well, that was fast

the clips were sooo short, I didn't expect that. On the other hand I had no knowledge about these videos an hour ago, so can't complain about discovering something new (old) from Damien, which is always a good thing

I don't recognize any of the songs there though

SilentNight · 11-17-2014, 12:27 PM

thanks, love it. i think my fave one from new record is MFFF.

The more I get to know about Damien, the more my life changes. I thank you so genuinely for sharing this (and to Ryan for shooting it).

This is a tangent for sure, but I found loads of videos on youtube of Anthony De Mello, the Jesuit priest Damien mentions in this piece. The videos are really great (and I'm an atheist, so you need not be a Christian to enjoy them). You can hear many of the refrains Damien is repeating in these interviews coming from these De Mello lectures. Here's my favorite so far, but there are many:

Seems like we came pretty close to never hearing this album.
