28. Cherub RockI really loved this gig, I’d seen them 3 times before this, and this is easily one of the best of them.
The band were in great form, laughing and smiling throughout, towards the end Billy spent something like 10/15 minutes just joking around with us/ranting about modern music.
I was pretty near the front, and everyone was going crazy for every single song even though the younger ones didn’t know the words to the lesser known songs, there was a great vibe.
Gig lasted somewhere around 2 hours 45 minutes, I enjoyed every second of it,
I made this video of Lily at it :

Im a Cult HeroSpectatorThanks guys
Yeah I had a great time, though I heard it wasn’t as much fun outside the pit, and there were problems with the sound (which I expected, as the RDS is a terrible venue) at some points.
I have to admit though, United States did overstay it’s welcome a bit, don’t get me wrong, I like the song, but by the time it hit the 20 minute mark, I was kinda wishing they would play another song
I wasn’t aware there was a strong Irish presence here, that’s pretty coolYeah I collect CD’s though my collection is probably microscopic compared to some of you guys
I have no vinyl yet but I do intend to at least get all the studio albums on vinyl when chance and finances meet in a glorious collaborationGlad you like the pics, feel free to take any you want to use however you want, it’s all gravy

Haha, don’t get me wrong… There might be more Irish, but we don’t know really where everybody is from, when they don’t fill in their country, you know… Let’s say you are the Exploration Team and just behind you is the Irish Army of SP fans.Well let’s hope for that anyway! Everybody is welcome on this small and humble board!
Have fun here Cult Hero, nice to meet you. You should post 1 of the pics with you on it here, they are pretty cool. Kinda gothic you say? Noooo, not this person!

Lol if I’m right about which photo’s your talking of, they are old photo’s, like 9 years ago old.
Ah my old goth/androgeny phase
I don’t really look like that anymore -
2008.04.20 at 9:42 pm #13423
blueczarinaSpectatorSo not goth then?

2008.04.20 at 9:47 pm #13424

blueczarinaSpectator
so you listen to music besides the SP? -
2008.04.20 at 10:08 pm #13426
Im a Cult HeroSpectatorUh-oh…..I’ve been rumbled!
Yeah all the goth standards would be among my all time faves (but of course all below SP), The Cure, Joy Division, Bauhaus, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy etc. etc.I just remembered a little random bit from the gig :
During the banter bit, Billy was giving out about bands using pro-tools to \"fix\" their music, \"We’re not like them\", then he asks everyone to raise their hands for whom this was their first SP gig, and he said \"and so now you know……we get this S*** done\" and threw up gang signs
Me and my friend constantly quote that bit to each other, still makes us laugh :p -
2008.04.20 at 10:16 pm #13427
blueczarinaSpectatorThats cool. I like Joy Division and The Cure, some Siouxsie too. But less than Pumpkins of course.
Funny Billy bit.

bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatorbilly is such a silly boy, i wonder what gang signs he threw up?

blueczarinaSpectatori wonder to? do you have pics?

2008.04.20 at 10:39 pm #13430
Im a Cult HeroSpectatorI wasn’t able to see properly because of the angle he was at when he did it.
No didn’t manage to get it on camera.
He also did Jazz hands to My Blue Heaven and a weird kinda ballet style dance during Lindas keyboard solo -
2008.04.20 at 10:41 pm #13431
blueczarinaSpectatorfunny
he looks silly when he dances

bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatorspeaking of billy’s dancing again, i am remided of the video for tarantula, he doesn’t have a guitar in front of him, so he has to move his hands all over, he just looks kinda uncofortable, and then he tosses the mic stand between hands, and then a second later does something with the mic stand again and the microphone falls off, and he laughs, i thought that was funny.
maybe that doesn’t have much to do with it at all, oh, this darn glue, get’s me all crazy

blueczarinaSpectator
Yeah, that video is not the greatest and it does seem kind of uncomfortable. And I don’t know if anyone agrees with me, but I kind of thought it was a cop-out with all the extras and the flashy colors. It just didn’t cut it when you consider some of their video masterpieces like Tonight,Tonight and Ava Adore (which he dances in too but it works). The Tarantula video was just kind of ok to me. -
2008.04.21 at 3:17 am #13436
bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatori agree, i liked the video for that’s the way much better. it was better than taurantula, not near as good as tonight tonight, but hey, i really like any video with billy in it.
-
2008.04.21 at 3:25 am #13437
blueczarinaSpectatorI agree. That’s The Way My Love Is was a much better video. It was still missing that extra something though, that would have taken it from a decent video to a really good one. His more recent videos just havn’t been as up to par as earlier efforts, except for Walking Shade. I love that one.

bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatorno argument here.
oh i still can’t get over the jazz hands!

Im a Cult HeroSpectatorFound a video of some of the banter towards the end, including the bits I mentioned, looks like my memory isn’t quite so hot, It’s hard to tell but he doesn’t seem to throw up gang signs, but maybe he does *shrugs* I dunno.
(The then start playing Cherub Rock)

What about replicas of billy? Such as a porcelain head made up to look like Billy?
Because in that case, you should watch Starfuckers inc. by Nine Inch Nails

2008.04.21 at 12:05 pm #13441
bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatorno mostly just real billy. i have never seen that video, i might watch it. but i would watch billy read the phone book, so yeah any thing with real billy.

2008.04.21 at 12:06 pm #13442
Im a Cult HeroSpectatorHeres a few more random vids from the night :
\"Danny Boy\" & \"Today\"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czKRGiQGCfA\"My Blue Heaven\" – The guy using the camera manages to completely miss the dancing bit, ansd cuts it off right before the last jazz hands (he also missed the first jazz hands at the start of the song)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_zyT4xjlXwNow it looks like I’m making this stuff up
-
2008.04.21 at 12:09 pm #13443
bullettwoutbutterflywingsSpectatoraww, you can’t controll the people with the cameras, i belive you, cause it sounds like stuff that silly billy would do.

2008.04.21 at 11:27 pm #13444
AnonymousSpectatorWas there an American flag displayed at this show? I can’t recall off the top of my head…
I read somewhere that the flag’s been raised and lowered several times during gigs and it’s only a recent discovery.
-
2008.04.22 at 7:05 pm #13445
Im a Cult HeroSpectatorNope, no flag for us, the venue was indoors and too small for them to bring the full stadium show out.

2008.04.22 at 8:41 pm #13446
Im a Cult HeroSpectatorOh and I noticed you didn’t have a ticket for this one in the collection :
