Seeing as Eels' new album "Shootenanny" is coming out 3rd of june, there's a nice interview on the eels-website with E. "C.M.Y.: "Saturday Morning", about being bored when you're a kid and your parents aren't awake yet, must be unique in its subject matter. E: I've been thinking about that lately. That feeling of being eight years old and a day seems like a year. You wake up early on Saturday and it'll be three hours before you can even go to your friend's house to play. It seems like a small moment now, but it was such a big deal then. Do you remember a show called Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp? C.M.Y.: No. E: It was like Get Smart, but with chimps. I remember watching that show at 6 a.m. and when it was over, thinking, 'What am I going to do now?' I recently bought a tape of the show as research. I do a lot of research for my songs." such a GREAT idea for a song! :) "C.M.Y.: Are you going to tour? E: I can't wait. Something strange has happened to me. I used to hate touring. Now I just want to get back to it. I was really sad when the last tour ended. There's something great about always moving. My favorite time of day is Rock O'clock." HA! |

mm. no can't help you there. there are a lot of live videos you can stream from the same site - I've been watching a lot of those. but that one isn't mentioned.. |

though you can stream a live version of "fresh feeling" on Jools Holland show on the BBC.. |

yeah, its been on slsk for months, as usual. I don't like it very much. it's almost like a retrospective - you can go through the whole album and say "oh, that track's an [i]electroshock blues[/i] track, oh, that's a [i]daisies for the galaxy[/i] track" etc. oh well. we'll see how it is when I have the finished product in my grubby little hands. going to see them play on the 27th, next month. thats always fun. LeCoeur: you should get their live albums! there are two and they produce them themselves - you can only buy them from the site. I would especially recommend the new one. |

JESUS! I just did a google for E's father, as E says in the interview.. "My father was a genius (Hugh Everett III, responsible for Everett's Many Worlds Theory of Parallel Universes)" ..which sounds like a joke to me. it's TRUE! |

what are the electroshock style tracks? i'll download those. i don't like albums 3 and 4 much. i'll lend LeCoeur the 2nd live album, she'll like it. |
||||||||
|

|
|
uh... I burned it to cd but I can't find it at the moment.. : s the only one I can remember is track #4 was very electroshock-y (also was the one I really liked). |

i saw them live a while ago it was pretty depressing, not much energy. the best part was when butch came out and sang a song about being a sad clown for kids parties |

I saw them live too, quite a while ago. one of the funniest concerts I've been to ever. |
||||||||

Jeez... a fifth album already?! I think i have some shopping to do :-p I only have the first 2 ones so far. But i love them both dearly (especially electroshock blues), so i want to buy the other 2 as well. And eventually this new one too. "it'll be three hours before you can even go to your friend's house to play. It seems like a small moment now, but it was such a big deal then" Hehe... i remember that feeling! I just love this guy's lyrics :-) Can't wait to hear the finished result!! Where do they play in holland? I've never seen them live... sounds like i've been missing out. |
