Sand...

Has anyone ever seen this song live? I only just downloaded it a few days ago and have come to the conclusion that it's pure class... one of my favourite songs now I think!

Spamlet · 03-03-2004, 12:20 PM

I agree thatthis song is amazing! Along with "Insane", "Rule number 2" and "The Professor" it's my favorite non album track.

It's genius !

Unfortunately I've never heard it live though...

brokenheart · 03-03-2004, 03:15 PM

I absolutely agree, its one of my favourite.

Pretty shame that Damo doesn't play this song on live that often. Maybe he doesn't wanna spoil this song, its too good to be play live I suppose.

I love this song. I love it so much that I think I will hunt Damo down and ask him to play it the next time I go to a show

Oooooo... any ideas where I can get my little mits on a copy of this?

Also... moody mooday - another hell of a song... loved it from the first time I heard it - not quite as much as Sand or Nine Crimes though

Loveless · 03-03-2004, 09:10 PM

well the KCRW session is still archived online:

Moody Mooday is a b-side on the first single. It can be bought online at
Townsend Records.

Dude..loveless...your avatar rocks mah socks. M'wearing an Atari sweatshirt right now! *does the geek dance* [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Sand is..simply put...amazing. It's right up there with Baby Sister and Childish. =D

I saw Sand performed soloas the whirlwind opener to the gig at the Orange Peel, Asheville, NC Dec 2003.It was unbelievable. Damienbroke 2 strings while playing it and carried on while periodically yelling "TWO STRINGS!" in amazement. I'll never forget a minute of that night's peformance but to see him tear thru Sand like a dervish,for the very first song, was a rare gift.

Atari sweatshirt.. wow, I want one of those! What console did you have? I had a Atari 130XE. Me and a guy I work with who also used to own an Atari spent an entire day last week tracking down the list of games we used to own. He found 22/28 games and I found about 30 out of 44 games I had. There are some brilliant sites out there where you can download the original games and play them on your PC [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img] my favourite sites are the ones that also have the original cassette covers and where you can search by the labels that released the games; ActiVision, Byte Back, CodeMasters, Mastertronic..

I found it at Kohls, for dirt cheap. I couldn't believe it, they had racks of them. I mean..who doesn't want an Atari sweatshirt? I do! =D

Me dad actually sold our console at a yard sale when I was away for a weekened. That'd made for some uneven ground for quite sometime =D It was old...a 7800 or something an eensy bit older...wasn't worth squat, but I used to love that thing. I'm a sucker for te classic games. Yeah.

These sites are beautiful! *worship*
