Speculating suits me right down to the bone. So much that when facts roll in I completely ignore that they have been presented and go on like "business as usual"

We should all sit silently in front of this thread saying nothing.

In all seriousness, I'm trying to find a song with the rhythm I want (and inevitably won't get) from SBM. I was hoping that the last part of "Awake My Soul" by Mumford&Sons had it, but although it's the same tempo and rhythm on the guitars, there's only a bass drum on it, no brushed snare.

Hey harmless, in fairness I'm allowed comment about being bored just as much you are allowed comment about, well everything.

Found it. This. I want Matt to play this, at the appropriate speed to SBM (slightly faster than this guy).

Has anyone noticed the guys in the band have been rockin' black shirts for this record? All the members wore black shirts at Wrigley. Matt and Mike wore black shirts in those promo videos. Ed is wearing a black t-shirt under his flannel in his promo video. The two promo photo's they all have on black shirts, Matt's almost looks blue but I think it's black. But ya I just have noticed it and um ya don't know why I'm posting it though :D

Yeah, I think we would've heard. We have people on Facebook etc. Still, I guess it's happening so we might get something somewhere. It really doesn't feel like we'll get Amsterdam reviews tonight, which is mildly gutting.

Well the A'dam one is in the melkweg (seated) so at least the Dutch crew will have a better idea about the sound I'm hoping?
