    I was concerned that the Ottawa show on Oct. 4 would be cancelled because the club is closed or in the process of being sold, not sure. They confirmed themselves on Facebook that the gig is still on :)

  • Who the hell is Wintersleep? That's the question I kept asking myself for the last year when I would see this thread growing almost daily. Too lazy to check them out I kept ignoring it until today. I'm going to be in Vegas next month on business and needed something to do on a Sunday night. Turns out this bands called Wintersleep is playing! If it wasn't for this gigantic thread I wouldn't have even thought to go see them. Well tonight I listened to Welcome To The Night Sky several times and I'm loving it. Turns out this thread I've been ignoring for over a year actually helped me discover some new music. Thanks to all who kept this thread going, I'm looking forward to seeing them next month. Also does anybody know the real PJ connection? I read that PJ heard a tape and was so impressed that they asked them to open a few shows in 2005. Any truth to that story?

    wintersleep opened for pearl jam at the st johns shows in 05. originally, if my memory serves correctly, it was suppose to be a "evening with pearl jam" but days before the show, wintersleep was asked to open. not sure the specifics on how it went down or how the band was introduced to their music. wintersleep had been compaired to pearl jam, in a positive manner rather then being rip offs, many times and where enjoying quite a bit of local/canadian success at that point.

    you will have a blast at the show for sure. great band and great live! you should check out there other two albums. i still think that untitled 03 is by far their best material. if you dont have it or are having trouble finding it, pm me :)

    early in the morning,
    animals are whispering
    thought i felt a feeling,
    could have been the valium
    staring through a candle,
    staring through the people
    hiding in our shadows
    swearing we will not grow old

    how you gonna lie to yourself?
    how you gonna lie?
    tell me there's a violence here
    tell me that there's nothing inside

    how you gonna lie to yourself?
    how you gonna lie?
    how do we forget ourselves?
    how do we forget our minds?

    we're all ghosts here
    we're all ghosts you know
    hiding in our bodies
    drifting in these vessels
    i say it loud and clear,
    dont know if i believe it
    tonight i want your body,
    don't give a fuck about your spirit


    how you gonna lie to yourself?
    how you gonna lie?
    tell me there's a violence here
    tell me that there's nothing inside

    i can feel your fingers close
    i can feel your falling clothes

    tell me that there's nothing
    tell me that you don't know




    this song has been my addiction for the last couple of weeks.
    it's so very yummy, in a sad, sexy kind of way. :o:)

    Glad to hear you're enjoying their music. These guys are easily one of the best indie-rock bands in the world right now. Have fun at the Vegas show!
