uumm, that's awkward. it didn't occur to me, i just noticed how the taping around the grip was a little worn probably because his hands get sweaty.
and funny how i'm the only guy in this thread probably.

It smelt a bit fruity, so I'm guessing like the gum he uses, took me a while to smell that though haha. It's almost in mint condition so he couldn't have used it for that long. I must sound like such a pervert, I'm really not

oh jees i'm sure i am being 100% dense and they're already on here but please, i need to hear those obtn extras. please be a darling and be my signpost once again drinkinthepark? i'm karmaring you already just for reading this hahaa and also for giving credit where it's due to his backing vocals, Thanks for the karma honey. What extras are you after? there are talks about beneath the surface - the b side to sex on fire here and you can get it off itunes happyalone.proboards47.com/index.cgi?board=kings&action=display&thread=7486And frontier city here happyalone.proboards47.com/index.cgi?board=kings&action=display&thread=7448The other extras are a very bad, in my opinion, remix of The Bucket, makes me bilious and the videos for sex on fire and crawl. Both of which you can see online. or rip. If i can be of any further help sweetie please feel free to PM me .

Also further backing vocal appreciation - use somebody - love the bit he does that's different from the others and Be Somebody and Molly's Chambers. To name but 3. EDIT: Also v jealous of those of you with drumsticks and towels . Nathan, if you are reading this, at the MEN in December please please please throw a drum stick to your right aiming about 2 blocks back 12 rows up cheers!!! (ps- to those brave souls who are standing. I am not standing as i got seated and i am relieved about this as i am still psychologically damaged from V. If i'd got standing i might be too afraid to go )

Yeah, got caught in the immense sideways surges, panicked and had to get pulled out. Came on here after and read that it was some of the worse people had ever seen :/. It was such a bloody shame too 'cause i was right in front of Nathan, bout 5 rows back!!!

Least you've been there, though, I've never seen them live.

I don't think it's as bad as their own gigs as it was at V. I've never seen anything like that before in my life! I had to get pulled out too and I had just managed to get front row.. I was heartbroken

I was heartbroken Hijacking this thread somewhat, but just wanted to say Sarah, you were one of the people i kinda conversed with about V at the time, one of my earliest posts! It was you and Black Jeans and someone else that made me feel better about the 'normal' gigs. Cx

i got new boots! so i been listening to kol in general with botty mostly and i think nathan is the bestest bestest drummer. i have so much to say, like for one i love the leftfield influences he chucks in there and makes WORK!! that's pretty damn cool. like it's almost hip hop on one of them. wahh. I have missed the drumming so so so so soooo much and i was so happy i found it again, on knocked up!!! GOD. like truly so perfect. like it's so interesting and sexy and just wonderful!! The drumrolls in Fans is so fucking cool. it's like falling down the stairs with grace and elegance like one of those cool dancey tough people in the matrix or la heine it's wicked, like the stunts daniel craig does as bond or bourne hahahaaa it's true! oh and one last thing and i have to say this cause it's what i think. nathan was always the coolest and bestest in the band and he got them all to follow and be as good as he plays and then when they were as one and equally fucking amazing and so brilliant with expressing themselves through their music, they're so in synch with what they can and want to play. It makes them so original.They all went together as one and grew together to make even better music for us to gobble up hahaa i just recognised the very start of knocked up at glasto 08 i say that cause that's what i'm listening to and i can't remember if it's the exact same begining on the album. hahaa sorry

I read what you put in the Matt's guitar appreciation thread ( or whatever it's called ) a short while ago. What I think you meant there is also what I would say of Nathan. (Sorry I don't know how to quote that here) He just seems to know what's good for a song, to the degree that you don't always notice straight away what he's doing, it just fits so well. Sometimes you only notice later. I think I put it better over there.

yeah i'd say that for all of them. it feels like because of that ability they all share they can produce music of sophistication, where you don't always notice certain elements at first. it's a real achievement that they've come that far with their playing. it's also a real achievement that they still produce exciting music. it's no use being able to play fantastically well together as a band if you can't think of a song to sing. it almost feels like it encourages them even more, knowing they're good, kinda inspires them possibly. i mean brilliance and beauty are hard things not to be inspired by. and from the other thread, thank you for my karma i love being 21!

i have to say that i totally adore the second verse of "use somebody". i love how bass and drums kinda play together! it just sounds so f'cking amazing!! everytime i listen to this part i turn up the volume and stop singing along, cause i love the part, it's about 1:57-1:58 the first time and the second time at 2:01-2:02. and i've seen a live performance of 'use somebody' and jared and nathan were looking at each other during the second verse, i suppose they kinda 'communicated' and i found it very very adoreable . does anyone else know what part i mean, tho??
