I put all the photos I could find in the Grammy Awards photo album on our myspace at www.myspace.com/f0urkicks, but I haven't updated since last night. I think we've got most of them but may have missed a couple. YAY! Thank you Jay!!! So FourKicks is the formerly-known as O Dusty?

I just can't catch up here right now...starved myself of Grammy info all feckin day so I wouldn't know...dashed home from a feckin gig rehearsal to make sure I don't miss them...and what do I find? SHIT yes SHIT UK coverage of the awards, ONE yes ONE shot of the boys and their ladies when the album nom came up...and that was IT. If it wasn't for Justin Timberlake I'd have gone to the nearest farm, stolen a feckin shotgun and blasted the telly to feckin smithereens.
I'm so livid right now I just have to go to bed...I'll read all this in the morning.
Goes without saying I'm chuffed for the boys but damn, what a let down that they barely even featured.

^^^ To be honest I don't think the CBS coverage showed them more than that either and it was E who had the interview with them on the red carpet. The Irish coverage is on tomorrow night so I can only imagine how shite that is going to be!

I'm still here, lurking, granted nearly impossible to alter the directioning of the Kings current musical evolution, but you can always augment the old sound with the new direction. Jamiroquai did it, so could the boys, mind you a yiddaki would sound AWESOME in a KOL song! Hehe!

Hello again, Oh dear Black Jeans, great to ponder at your ever resourceful, wise and lovely posting font yet again, I hope you have been well too! Yeah, well, The Kings could very well do it, in my view, that is, bring back the spirit of their debut album. I swear if they stoop to having their next album produced by Brian Eno, wear Sgt. Peppers in fluorescent colors designed French battle overcoats with randomized rags on their arms and bang obnoxiously large drums while a mulleted Caleb plays a baby harpiscord piano while whining like Chris Martin...I WILL STOP LISTENING TO MUSIC! Bar none! Cheers again sister! Your Friend, JamiroFan2000 hey jamiro...i have no clue who you are...but i am friggin DIEING to be your friend after that statement i don't think i could have said it better myself..karma spankin for youuuuuuuuuuuuuu

yeah uh sorry about that hehee temper exploded slightly hehehe :/
what i meant to say was more along the lines of this; there music hasn't changed it still comes from the same place it always has, i still hear everything i've always heard and i love the fact that obtn prooves that. it warms me in several different places of my body to follow where they're taking their desire to create the best music they can. for whatever reason there's alot of their sound they hadn't expressed before.
it (evidently) winds me up when i hear -and i'm sorry but i must repeat this word here- stupid remarks said like there music has changed. no it has not. hence y i asked if you were listening to the same band as me cause it's all been there since day one.

Regardless of how you feel about the current sound of the band, why anyone would crave a remake of YAYM style music is beyond me. And as a male older than any of the Kings, the look is completely incidental and a non-issue for me. Go Forward Boys. Do what comes NEXT for you, not what you have already done. You can remake YAYM in a second.... and probably not feel satisfied artistically and gain few new fans. Or you can make whatever comes NEXT in your own musical journey and if you happen to gain new fans, see popularity soar in your homeland, wear your hair shorter as you get older, and win a fucking Grammy.... Then I say well done. For what it's worth, I jumped on board in the fall of 2003 when I first heard Red Morning Light. It's been a great ride so far, and I intend on staying on board for sure. If you want to go back to 2003, please exit the Kings of Leon train now. Bands change, evolve, etc. They've grown up for crying out loud. You think any of them could write the song "Soft" now.... when they go to be with their fiancee's/girlfriends every night? I think not. lol i am a girl and the look is somewhat important to me. i don't want my beloved rock band to be ugly or wear crappy clothes and have no style or class. i'm being tongue in cheek there. i can never ever imagine them making yaym 2. thank christ! obtn was so brave and i don't think it can all be explained with some intense obsession to conquer america or sell out stadiums, i think it was trying to say something a lot more personal than that about where they are now, what they can do now and i guess what they want now. they fcking deserve it, jeees i've been here as long as you since red morning light and all of us ALL OF US said always said this band are gonna be huge. it's strange how majoratively it ain't us with the problem. cause those who only did want that, have left, fair enough. i want this band to be what they want this band to be. like i said before they havn't changed. thank you for yr post, it cheered me up to read come back and say more stuff please!

Hmm I just don't get why many people think that going back to their roots is making a YAYM 2 or de-evolution. Many bands do it, that doesn't mean they're making the same album over again, it just means that their creativity and their own 'je nais se quoi' is coming back and God knows I hope it does.

it just means that their creativity and their own 'je nais se quoi' is coming back and God knows I hope it does. so from that i take it that you don't think they are being particularly creative at the moment? and that there je nais se quoi only runs as far as about being in the south? seriously?! sleeves, y?
