Supergrass?
« on: February 27, 2003, 06:32:00 pm »
Is anyone going to see them next Thursday?  I saw them on MadTV last week and needless to say, I was hooked on their song RushHourSoul.  Just wondering to see what type of turnout there would be , as I am coming alone.

Wifey and I will be going along with Jadetree and venerable bede and I should think a good few more. <P>The coral must be a big draw as well. <P>

The Coral is *the* draw for me, though I certainly won't skip out the door when they're finished. I like Supergrass but haven't kept up with them. The Coral put on a hell of a show.

cannot wait for this one. i have been waiting (and waiting and waiting) to see supergrass for years, and the coral, i am able to say, are fabulous live. saw them last year in edinburgh and they are booty-shakin' good.

And the songs sound better live because they have a little more punch to them. <P>And a good friend of mine saw them at the Mercury Lounge late last year (it was right around thxgiving) and said they were very good for most of the above reasons. Plus she wanted to give the singer a tongue-bath.

I'll be there...aloooone.  Excited to see Supergrass even though I haven't gotten their new album yet.  Also looking forward to seeing The Coral based on their rockin' Dreaming of You.<P>I'm new, but I expect this to be my first in a streak of shows this month and next. (TSOOL, Sigur Ros, Music/Vines, etc.)

Did I miss something on another topic thread?<P>I will be at the show for sure. I'm very curious about The Coral and have never seen Supergrass.  Should this be a board gathering? Many of us already know each other, but if you are new to the fold -and are brave enough to want to meet us, let me (or one of the other regulars) know.<P>
