    We better get Faithful Guide

    We got it in Regina. Just tell them it is a special birthday request, in our case the birthday was real, but they didn't check ID.
    Which came first,
    the bad idea or me befallen by it?

    one week until they play st. john's. I've seen them in the smallest of bars, and now, a huge ballroom. Hope they play all of the new record. Best record of 2007.

    I am really jealous of you guys getting to see them play....Don't think we've got much chance of UK dates in the near future...

    And 'Welcome to the Night Sky' is an amazing album.....It's really grown on me. I was listening to Miasmal Smoke.... the other day and had a musical epiphany! It's completely stunning...and so beautiful...

    The song is amazing, but I'm having trouble making it all out.....

    Hang on. There's some lyrics to it somewhere on the facebook group. A few people figured it out as best they could. I'll try and find the best guess.

    Ok. It goes a little something like this...

    Donated her eyes when she was young and shy,
    hated her awkward breasts and filled the yawning skylines with kisses
    sweet, to hear existence beat, to hold it tangible and drifting,
    ever so gently sifting summer sky, donated her eyes, donated her eyes
    to feel her actual senses, oh sweet 16, to feel what life was like,
    donated her eyes to feel life as she imagined it

    Go back to sleep you yellow bellied freaks, afraid of God and modern science
    Go back to sleep, if I could only sleep, if I could stop imagining if my dreams weren't after me
    Through piss and sweaty blankets, the deafening hum of some great silence
    The jingle jangling heat, the strangling sheets, terrible and fucking meaningless

    I would agree with most of that, but there's still some bits im unsure about.

    The show rocked! They only played for just over an hour, but it was high energy from start to finish. I can't wait to see them again soon.
