Black T-shirts. The only difference now between them and mime artists is white skin paint.

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?
We can hope so.

Well, they need to increase their repertoire -- they only act as posing Pearl Jam at the moment. "This is called Pearl Jam stuck in a box."

We should really divide this thread into groups of five, so we can take shifts.

Today's really been a knock on my morale, but it's not just this forum. I guess I didn't know how much I wanted this album to be good before it started bothering me that people were already slagging it off. I don't need it to be good, and I'll enjoy slagging it off if it's bad. But it's not even here yet.

Or PJ need to man up and tell him to, one or the other. But they won't because they like the guy. So that's it; we either try and appreciate what he brings, or don't.

Still, I think negative is this forum's default setting when there's nothing to talk about.

Or we could actively put the Bo'B hate thread and the drummer thread to good use. Perhaps we need an "IlluminiEddie provokes..." thread?

In a weird way that was probably the most informative so far. Sounds intriguing.

Sounds awesome. Infallible, Pendulum, Sirens and Yellow Moon are intriguing me. I want this to leak now.
