Easily, they had a harp onstage and everything. | --MakeYourselfSick-- |
I went to their Tampa show on Friday. My best friend has been a fan since before "Letting Off the Happiness" and convinced me to go. Connor had amazing energy and sounded excellent, and audience interaction was also good. He sang and ranted a lot about the Bush brothers who were also in town. Quite amusing. Some of the other members were not so energetic, but he sort of made up for it. I cannot help but feel they have sold out though. But whatever. Oh my goodness, has anyone heard the CD Connor Orbest made when he was 13...funny stuff. Somehow I feel he spends a lot of time in the bathroom?
I never realized how incredibly small he is. I *accidently* wandered backstage, and since it was a small venue it was okay. I got to talk to Connor, the bassist, and an odd roadie, god hes soo small. I'm about 5'5" and | SyntheticxDreams |
woah, it cut the endo off...all I said was:
And usually around 115 lbs, sometimes less, but he was shorter and thinner than I! How very small indeed. | SyntheticxDreams |
hey, did ne one see them perform on Late Late with Craig Ferguson? It was awesome.. that was the first i had heard of them. I have GOT to get their CD... connor looks just like a guy from my school. it was cool when the trumpet player smashed the trumpet. Connor seemed a little shy or akward when Craig interviewed him, but all together it was really cool. I have it on tape. | musicxpress08 |
I really wish I'd get to see them (him) play live sometime, but I know I never will. Ihatelivinghere.
And this forum really is weirdly quiet. | KlatsiKat |
i live in wisconsin so i can NEVER see them live but i am totally dying to. i love conor oberst he is such an amazing artist. by they way, who else here like desaparecidos | marain07 |
i REALISED TODAY THE THINGS YOU LOVE MOVE IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS YOU SOMETIMES-IN FEELING, AND WHAT THE LYRICS SAY TO ME ARE MY DREAM OF BEAUTY- SO MANY SYNCHRONISITIES | lils |
conor is overrated
but i love them | oMychemicalRomanceo |
i had no idea synthetic liked bright eyes.... i don't really like them but for some reason i'm really surprised she does... | MyChemicalWombat |
Did someone named "mychemicalromance" just call conor over rated? lol | dual17y |
| no....retard...learn to read.... | MyChemicalWombat |
oh wait i'm sorry, i thought you were referring to me i didn't read her post,whoopsies!...and yea i guess they somewhat are but i still like them and conor IS overrated... | MyChemicalWombat |
well, i would agree if i didn't feel that he was honestly WORTHY of the praise. i think that there is a lot of hype around him (due to his hotness and outsanding talent), but i don't think he's OVERrated. and i DID end up seeing them live with the faint (a band that i would suggest to anyone who likes interpol or electronica..AMAZINNG live) at the riv. conor was pretty drunk, but that's how he is at all his shows. it was entertaining. based on other shows i'd been to before bright eyes, i felt that their set was really long (about an hour and a forty-five minutes...straight.) | marain07 |
Hey Wombat, yes I like Bright Eyes. Not so much their new CDs, but that would be typical of me wouldn't it. Usually this kind of stuff bothers me, but my boyfriend and bestfriend got me hooked over an extended period of time. And they're close enough to Arcade Fire and Neutral Milk hotel and such, well what can I say, I've become a sucker for indie. Most Bright Eyes fans piss me off though, to be honest. :-p | SyntheticxDreams |
Yeah marain07 I've been to 5 bright eyes concerts and I've never seen the kid sober. But their sets are usually that long. | SyntheticxDreams |
