  • so no MONSTER LOVE duet vid yet?  :(
  • There are some great pro shots, which were put up today on the GF Facebook page - well worth taking a look.

    I'm really hoping someone - officially or not - recorded it because that was the best GF gigs I've ever been to and one of the top 10 by any artists. No sign yet of any recordings on any of the "usual suspect" sites... starting to get a bit anxious!
    :-S

  • An interesting debate ensues. We were told on entering that we could take photos, but no flash and no filming (yeah, right). Appy had a stroppy mare by the side of him who told him he should not be filming. Thing is, who loses for us posting vids of the concert on YouTube? No-one. The RAH is not losing anything and neither are Goldfrapp. Even if they did film and release the gig on DVD ( yeah, right.) it would not stop anyone intending to buy it in all it's Blu-Ray goodness ( yeah, right).
    Who gains? Well, Goldfrapp, as it promotes they exist to people who are not fans who come across it on YT, possibly promoting another album sale, it pleases existing fans, as they get to see footage of the concert to remind them of it if they attended and to see some of the gig if they could not.
    I film with pride at these gigs as I think I am, in some small way, helping the band out in these days of social media and viral videos. In 2 days, my film of Some Velvet Morning has already had 750 views. Last night, it was the only version on YT. I read John Grants Twatter page and one of his fans said they had enjoyed watching SVM on YT and I thought, that was me !
    Oh, and someone took me to task for mis posting my vid of Alvar under the title Ulla, ( now corrected) and said it was a shame that someone went to the concert that could not sort the names of the songs out when they couldn't go. Well, you should try harder mate !
    Funny world !

  • Sally, you have inside information? Hint please!

    (I know the Americans have been disappointed with lack of USliveness. I feel for you, esp if this is a one-off UK date...)

Howdy, Stranger!
