Alright, so I just listened to the record.

I fucking Love it all through.
The songs, production, everything really! The artwork could be a bit better, but I am really satisfied.

Too bad I missed the London gig, cause I arrived the day after :(

the portrait in the gatefold, with "... vogue" written on his arm, is by far the least flattering picture i've ever seen of him. not that it matters much. wonder why he chose it though...

Put perfectly.

I'm really impressed with the album. It's a great departure.

I'm exactly the same. I expected a brother for Trees outside the academy but I think this improves on it.

Glad to hear everyone is enjoying DT. Add me to the list. Hello to all my friends and enemies "it has been a long time hasn't it. "Y" that does mean peace not..."

I remember he played a few songs from Psychic Hearts during the encore durring the Trees era show I saw. I would like to see one of my favorite underestimated songs Female Cop played live at the Troubadour next month, please.

I went crazy when He encored Psychic Hearts stuff in Dublin on that tour. Patti Smith math scratch and Psychic Hearts were amazing. I was singing along and could hear two or three others singing every word. No doubt people from these boards.

It's all a bit strummy strummy plucky plucky innit.

However, i do like song number 5 - Theresa's sound world...

At first glance I thought it was a teenage picture til I realized it was taken around the "Youth Against Fascism" video shoot.

here ya go, friends:

Thurston @ Pappy & Harriet's, Pioneertown, CA July 31
I've always wanted to go to this venue, supposed to be really cool with quite a story. Started out as a Hollywood Western set in the Mojave Desert, then somewhere along the way some of the fake sets got turned into real buildings. Was a biker bar at one point, they have a little bungalow hotel around the corner from the venue, hitching post for patrons traveling on horseback. Reinacted gunfights for tourists. Too bad it's a Sunday night, as it's quite a drive from LA and I'm too busy Monday morning. However, a hypothetical acoustic version of Death Valley '69 played in the Mojave desert seems like something not to miss... Gila Monster Jamboree 2011?

All a bit technical innit? brilliant, technically. I've since deleted this from me' mp3 player after a couple listens. I don't mind acoustic guitar it's just the pluckety pluck gets too much after the first few songs. And that violin is not my bag at all. not my bag, baby! Harp is great though, took straight from AIR's Kyoto :cool:
