Is he still on about his ex missus do you think?

Edit-harmless, my post chimes with yours, weirdly,
I'm sure the damaging relationship angle is bubbling underneath somewhere, yeah. Personally I think if it's happened to you it never really fully leaves you.

I've seen him in years towards the end of Black, one or two times, so perhaps we're right

With a more carefully worded retraction, for starters

When the love for LB dies down in about six months, just make sure you sink back and blend into the general milieu. Only give an opinion on the song when you're asked for it. There's plenty you can do to avoid embarrassment.

I'm the same with sirens.

Sirens would've felt too bloated on the record if it was any longer. It's already in danger of being boring unless it's got your full concentration. They can afford to make a big indulgent thing of it in concert.

I always maintained Pj do the fade out thing so much cos while they write killer songs, they never know how to end them. We get to see this live sometimes, but these two better get some jamming on em.

Do they not even jam out live? Hmmm... didn't know that. I can live without the jams, really, but I know a lot of people like them.

And I don't know... the fadeout is too early but there's a fade-in to Infallible after so it could turn out quite cool. Two songs sandwiched together.

They're very good at the traditional slow down and then KABLAM rock-n-roll ending. It's hardly contemporary or interesting. Brendan probably just thinks it's not hip enough, and he's right really. Other bands do some interesting things with abrupt endings in unexpected places, not PJ.

True.

I don't think I mind the LB fadeout, but it would've been better after another round of Mike's part.
