Have any bootlegs of the 2008 tour surfaced?
I’ve yet to hear one.
I’m hoping somebody got the cash car star/black sabbath/buffalo springfield/Iron Maiden medley they’ve been playing recorded somewhere

i do have 1979 acoustic but with drums…[/quote:56qjad7g]

Oops, this might be the version uploaded, it has drums too :/
Didn’t see this post, doh!

1979 acoustic :

Yeah, everything up to and including track 8 (crush) is fairly low, then on track 9 (untitled) everything improves a lot on my version.
I have an acoustic 1979 on the way, but I don’t know where it’s from, pretty good though.

Sorry about that, I was watching Beowulf
But the whole show is worth having, some great versions on there.
I assume it’s the same as the one I have? Where the sound quality drastically improves about half way through?

[Im a Cult Hero]

I’m not sure if I’m supposed to be posting anything in here, but heres the version they played at the secret acoustic gig in Berlin in 07

It’s a bit different to the version they’ve been playing on the 08 tour.

It was crazy with Silverf**k, just after the quiet bit at the end….or at least I thought it was crazy….then I tried it with some noise from Japan, I got pwned by DJ Merzbow
I might actually buy the full version of this, it was pretty fun

[Im a Cult Hero]

this looks awesome! Thanks for posting, I’m looking forward to seeing how it reacts to different genres

Heres a few more random vids from the night :

\"Danny Boy\" & \"Today\"

\"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)

Now it looks like I’m making this stuff up

[Im a Cult Hero]

Found 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)

I have a couple of SP tribute albums :
Rockabye Baby Lullaby Renditions
Myspace triute to..
Gothic/Industrial tribute to..
String Quartet Tribute to..

I like the lullaby renditions and string quartet the most (they’re both instrumental).
The string tribute also has an original composition by the group inspired by the Pumpkins \"The Prize goes to the ghost children\".

I also have \"Takes\" by Adem, which is an album of cover songs of various artist’s (including PJ Harvey, Bjork & Aphex Twin) which features a cover of \"Starla\", I think it is quite possibly the greatest Pumpkins cover I have ever heard
Really does the original justice, without resorting to it being a kareoke(sp?) version.

Just realised I put it as the wrong year : it should be 22/08/95 (sorry about that guys)

[Im a Cult Hero]

Oh I should mention the machina & SD ones are really bad sound quality, so I don’t know if you’ll want to bother with them, I guess I just like them coz I was there

[Im a Cult Hero]

I 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

[Im a Cult Hero]

Uh-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

[Im a Cult Hero]

Still into the music, but I’ve gotten too lazy to keep up the look

[Im a Cult Hero]

You should post 1 of the pics with you on it here, they are pretty cool. Kinda gothic you say? Noooo, not this person! [/quote:3pu0pu1b]

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

[Im a Cult Hero]

In Dublin, Ireland born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin’ out maxin’ relaxin’ all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school
When a couple of guys
Who were up to no good
Startin making trouble in my neighborhood…….

[Im a Cult Hero]

My collection is tiny, and rather unimpressive compared to most of you, but here goes :

No prizes for guessing who my top artist will be

[Im a Cult Hero]

Thanks 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 cool

Yeah 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 collaboration

Glad you like the pics, feel free to take any you want to use however you want, it’s all gravy
