Need to get me a copy of this!

I'll buy one! And I'll be there! Can't wait. I <3 10ew!

Ooh yay. Think I'll go to this!

Think I'll pop along to this one! Sounds good

I think this is a great idea. I guess shows like The Choir have brought about a greater interest in singing groups and it's particularly nice to see something like this taking place amongst young kids. I volunteer at a school so may mention it to some of the teachers next week when term starts again. Thanks, and good luck.

Also, can someone confirm that The XCerts will be support for this gig?

Are there any tickets left for this? Tried OneUp and Ticketmaster at the Tourist Info place, but both are sold out. Ticket Web from the Warehouse website says tickets are available on the door? Does that just mean on the night? Or....now?!

god damn me being in japan when cool shit like this is happening!!! although to be fair, i was lucky enough to catch their inpromptu moshulu gig last christmas, where they played a huge range of songs from all the albums and it was, quite frankly, the best idlewild gig i've ever been to but oh, sob sob, i miss live music

I'm surprised no one's mentioned this one yet..... Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields, Sold in a market down in new orleans. Scarred old slaver know hes doin alright. Hear him whip the women just around midnight. Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should A-huh. Drums beating, cold english blood runs hot, Lady of the house wondrin where its gonna stop. House boy knows that hes doin alright. You should a heard him just around midnight. Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a black girl should A-huh. I bet your mama was a tent show queen, and all her boy Friends were sweet sixteen. Im no schoolboy but I know what I like, You should have heard me just around midnight. Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should. I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said Oh just like a, just like a black girl should. I said yeah, I said yeah, I said yeah, I said Oh just like, just like a black girl should.

I seem to recall that the first time I met Stuart Maxwell was when we met Idlewild and he yelled something retarded at Roddy Woomble's parents! nice!

i reckon it's cos schools in japan are the most boring places in like, the world. kids need to find something to amuse themselves with instead of listening to the teacher. except when the teacher is me of course

Yeah I was just about to say there was already a big thread about this. Some very interesting points having been raised and all. Read it! Animals are rad. Humans just kinda fuck everything up I find seagulls scary. They could totally batter me to death. I think we need to know our role in the natural scheme of things!

isn't it ouiji?!

There is the face of a ghost in the wall of St Machar Cathedral There are three big stained glass windows up behind the altar and on the wall just to the left of the left-most window inside, about halfway down you can see the face of a ghost. Obviously this is just the cut of the stone, but churches are pretty creepy anyway so it still gives you a bit of a shiver.

aaaawwww gillian welch genius
