Wondered if anyone here was at SS. I heard TJF, as we left just after 4pm on the Saturday. They sounded good, though I should see them in October

Anyone been to any of these venues as thinking of doing a lttle road trip with a few friends to some of the dates....Germany calling maybe

I was going to say are the Temper Trap any good, but I suppose I can always head over to myspace.
I've never been to any of those venues, sounds fun

No Prague, what a surprise

Hello Paris!!

Really looking forward to Garage on Weds......Quite like the sound of Little Death as well.

Road trip booked for Germany so will see them in Frankfurt and Cologne and also a little Euro tunnel trip to Paris is planned......Who cares about the exchange rate(me when I realise I'm really broke come Christmas)

funkymp wrote::hail: @ last night

what the hell was that 4th song they played (newie, not heard before?), was 'wow', insanely good

Another great Joy Formidable performance ....They played 2 new new songs which I've been told are called THE MAGNIFYING GLASS and A HEAVY ABACUS,the 4th song played which was one as these was just so good....seeing them 5 more times before the end on the year.

Finally got my copy of the album and nifty t-shirt in the mail yesterday, and on the day before my birthday. Nice timing I suppose. Such a perfect little CD....

Played a great set again supporting The Editors in Norwich Sunday(a home gig for me for a change)..next week it's Koko supporting Passion Pit...then some European dates 2 in Germany Frankfurt and Koln followed by a later trip to Paris, An added bonus is an extra date they are doing in Norwich(again ) on Dec 11th....that will be 17 times for the year(may even be more times than Rob,then again maybe not)

Some photos here of the Manchester gig http://picasaweb.google.com/catshoe/TJFEditorsGig# which was another excellent night, followed up by them doing a DJ set and having a few drinks at the Deaf Inst round the corner

New song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vgji15pGMU
