Ash!!!

[Pil]

I OFFICIALLY LOOOOOOOVE ASH! I'm not sure how famous they are in the US....or anywhere else....but british peeps should be ashamed of themselves if they do not know who ash are!

If u r one of those people then here is what they have released recently...ish... lol

SHINING LIGHT
BURN BABY BURN
CANDY
SOMETIMES
and their new single ENVY! "Envy! Envy! E-e-e-e-envy!" :blush: :thumbs:

Anyone else a fan of theirs?!

[Pil]

Oh...and if you ARE a fan...you will be excited to know that...

I MET CHARLOTTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :elfeek: :o :elfeek:
(...the girl who plays guitar and does some vocals...)

It was the coolest thing! My friend and i were on the underground in london after seeing sugarcoma and skindred at a gig, and she pointed out that a girl near us looked like charlotte from ash...rather loudly...the girl in question gave us a funny smile and we were like "oh my god! that IS the girl from ash!"

We got her autograph and chatted for 15 mins until we had to get off at our stop. She was so friendly. She asked us about reading and the gig we'd been to and what music we were into. I was really nervous and smiled loads...and my friend was like "you know you're like, her favourite band!"

She also gave us the copy of NME (music mag) that she was reading! :cool:

I'm sorry to have gone on...but it was yesterday...and i am still sooooooo hyped!

:whoohoo: :whoohoo: :whoohoo:

[Bonos-Girl]

WOO HOO! :stomper: :hooray: :thumbs:

I DID have the single (which...by the way is soooo cool to look at AND listen to)...but it got stolen from the cd player in our school...verymad :(

[Bonos-Girl]

if you want i'll copy it for you...unless there are pirating police people her in which case i have nothing to do with pirating Cds for my friends...ever!!

[Pil]

lol Of course not! (don't believe it! she has a regular little company going on!) lol

Copy it for me then...thanks mate... :cuddles:

[Tary]

I hace never heard of them but they are probably not very populer in Rivindell.

[Pil]

lol Suppose not! Where are you from Tary? :huh:

[Undomiel]

Ooo I saw Ash play at the Leeds Festival in August-they were fantastic. U r so lucky to have met the guitarist!!!

[Bonos-Girl]

wow...you saw ash live...you're soo lucky!!! i saw them on tv at glastonbury and they were really good!

[Undomiel]

yeah-Leeds was amazing-loads of my fave bands were there and Ash were really good. I definitely recommend seeing them-in fact i recommend going to a festival in general :)

[Adunauriel]

I knew colplay was touring the states, but sadly haven't heard of ash. Maybe since there with colplay then there music will get out here in the states. Then we'll all love them here too.:) :thumbs:

[Pil]

It's really cool to see coldplay doing well in the US...go brits! :brave: :p lol

Hopefully jen...i mean...the quality of ash should not go unheard by anyone...

Undomiel...i know...believe me i appreciate how lucky i was to get on the same sub train as her...i mean...if we hadn't run for it...then we wouldn't have got on...and met her...ahh...what ifs... pfbbt :p

I really need to see them live...you know how when you see a band...there are the die-hard fans that know all the words off the first album that most people have never heard of...then there are the fans who know the songs released and like them...then there is the people who obviously went to the wrong concert and end up throwing stuff at the stage...well...i wanna be the first kind...! :)

[Undomiel]

lol they were v. cool live, though i have to admit I dont know all the words or nething. One band i have all the albums of is Nirvana, and I will never get to see them. Then I have all of Muse's albums (wow, 3lol) and ive seen them twice and i was singing along till i lost my voice from shouting. I have selections of most albums, and i copy loads coz i have a cd writer. The Foo Fighters are great. Ok this is turning into my fave bands again soz. As i was saying Ash were amazing, and there banner that they had at Leeds was sooo cool.

[Bonos-Girl]

i only have the first 2 muse albums cos i bought the dvd of hullabaloo and therefore couldn't afford the cd as well....i spend way too much (if thats possible) on Cd's.....on monday i spent £37 on the 2 U2 best of CD's!!!

[Undomiel]

The dvd is so good. I havent got it myself but my bf has and so i just steal it from him. I really like the CD. The weird B-sides are amazing. Specially hyperchondriac music, which is this really slowed down version of hyper music. Actually Ash came on one before Muse at Leeds. It was really cool coz the bands got better and better, Ash, Muse, Foo Fighters!!!!

[Bonos-Girl]

i've seen muse live and they were amazing but it was a couple of years ago before i got the albums so didn't know half the words!

[Undomiel]

i saw them at the Manchester Apollo too the November before. I havent been to that many concerts. I havent seen Ash except at Leeds. I've seen A. Actually most of the bands Ive seen have been at Leeds coz good bands dnt turn up here often enough. I cant wait to see Foo Fighters though :) only a week and a day to go!

[Bonos-Girl]

wow...lucky you..they're really good live!

[Undomiel]

:grin:

[Pil]

YOU'VE SEEN MUSE AND A!?!?! You are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lucky!!!!!!!!!!! veryhappy

They both rock completely...them, plus you've seen ash... i live in awe of you... notworthy...lol...:p

[Undomiel]

lol well i am amazing (lie detector goes crazy) lol i have definitely been lucky-actually A were at Leeds too. You see all you have to do is go to a festival and ure bound to see some amazing bands. Me and my friends checked all the line-ups to see which would be best and we chose Leeds and it rocked!!!!:) going to smaller gigs is good tho coz you see the band really close up. At the Muse one in MAnchester i was near the front and i was like "wow-Matt Bellamy is feet away from me! Twoz so cool" if you can go and see them!!!!

[Bonos-Girl]

i really wanted to go to leeds this year but my parents are evil!!! lol....i get free tickets each year to go to v....but this year was aweful...the only good parts waere alanis morisette,stereophonics and the manics...and that was out of the entire weekend!!!

[Undomiel]

yeah we looked at going to V, but it didnt look too good really. The Foo Fighters and Muse et al were too enticing. My parents let me go this year 4 the first time and i'm older than you so i think ure doing pretty good getting to V. lol how do you get free tickets????

[Bonos-Girl]

i go to a 'rock summer school' run by virgin and last year they sent us the wrong tickets so we all got into the VIP area!!!

[Undomiel]

wow that's v cool. I would love so much to meet bands-like I would love to meet Matt Bellamy and Dave Grohl, people like that. ahh i wish!!!

[Bonos-Girl]

i never got to meet matt or dave (unfortunaetly!)...i told all my mates that if they saw any member of muse they had to come and get me....and then a few hours later they came back and said 'oh...did we tell you yet..bout half and hour ago we met the bassist from muse'....i was soo annoyed...

[Undomiel]

omg-that would be so annoying. :elfeek:

[Bonos-Girl]

it was..trust me...i was like 'why didn't you come and find me...or phone me?' and they were saying that they never heard me say that....it's not like i didn't say it at least 10 tmes just in casen they weren't listening!!! :elfeek:...aaarrrggghhh

[Undomiel]

i think i'd kill my friends if they did that to me (not literally, but still)

[Bonos-Girl]

at least we hope not literally!!! and i did pretty much feel like killing them....in the end i got to meet james walsch from starsailor, maxi jazz from faithless and some random guy from wheatus (i'm still not sure who he was though!!!)

[Tary]

I live in U.S. so I never heard of em.

[Undomiel]

its weird. alot of US bands make it over here, but alot of UK bands dont even get heard of there. Though then again there must be loads of US bands that dont make it as well. Still i the US people are deprived of some really good bands.

[Bonos-Girl]

a lot of people in the Uk probably haven't heard of a lot of bands i think are cool so.....

some bands seem to make it in the US but not UK even thouhg they're english though...weird....

[Undomiel]

yeah that is also true. i sometimes despair of Britains taste in music when i see some of the things that get to No 1. It's quite scary actually.

[Bonos-Girl]

i know...teletubbies for god sake...they are a childrens' programme...this does not mean they make good music....what's wrong with people.....

today in assembly because of children in need we got to choose out of U2 and something else to listen to on the way out...and of course i chose U2....then our very evil deputy head said 'whoops....i forgot about this.' and held up the blue album...guess what people voted for...yep...i had to sit through Blue when it could have been U2...now that was torture!!!

[Undomiel]

it's when things like "hey baby" get to no. 1 that i consider suicide lol i just cant stand things like that. Dance anthems in general in fact.

[Bonos-Girl]

i don't get why dance tracks get into the top forty cos i can't see anyone except DJ's buying them yet the sell in thousands and even millions....weird!!

[Undomiel]

o yeah i didnt mean NoDoubt (just in case anyone was wondering) i meant that DJ whatever "Hey Baby" eurgh.

[Pil]

That was one of theie least memorable songs....pfbbt...*pil attempts to get stuooopid tune out of her head by singing 'candy'...oh look....it worked* :)
