i cried when i got them :D
i was major sad cos i couldnt afford to go to the gig in glasgow they did last week. i live on a tiny island so going to a gig costs me about £250 minimum, but i got tickets this time and i dont care how much it costs :D
they've been my favourite band for years, i'm well excited.

Ohsafe, they're coming to Coventry (already knew it but whatever).
Both the new songs sound awesome already - definately an album I'll have to buy. Just don't know if I can see them or not =[

Last time I saw them though they weren't too great and that put me off them a lot. I'm quite fond of Tales Don't Tell Themselves now though, so I should really give them another shot.
Did they play anymore of their new stuff?

unfortunately not. they didnt play history either :'( my favourite song ever.
they played recovery, into oblivion, out of reach, waterfront dance club, beneath the burning tree, streetcar, jeneau (or however it's spelt :P), a couple more that i cant remember, then finished on escape artists never die.

hours is one of the best albums i have ever listened to. i love every song on it, it's amazing.

That's actually a pretty damned good set list... last time I saw them they finished on The Sweetest Wave, then came back and did Escape Artists Never Die for the encore... Two of the best end of set songs ever.

I know what you mean! I've had to pay £40 for train, £60 for a night in a hotel + the gig tickets to go see bands in the past. Pretty expensive :P

I really wanted to see them in TJ's at Newport as it's like a 150 people venue but some how they managed to squeeze in 300, and I didnt get a chance to get tickets and couldn't find anyone selling for a reasonable price. :(
