Bonz has flown to see them in Germany this morning.

That's just weird, isn't it?

Even Liam's got more sense than to go see them abroad! Er, I think? :skeptic:

Hopefully she'll do the decent thing and roll in late, then wander out early and just listen to them at the bar. :nod:

Fair play to Bonz for making the effort although not sure I'd have done :p

Must admit my opinion of Editors has wavered somewhat over the last year. I played the first album and all the singles off it to death at the time but have found the second album a little grating after barely half the listens.

They're really pushing that squealey U2 guitar and stadium widescreen production aren't they? Don't get me wrong, still some cracking tunes on there but they're definitely straying into U2 territory which is a bit depressing.

Haven't seen them live yet so reserving opinion on that front.

Just hope Tom Smith doesn't bang on about Kosovo or Africa while sporting wrap-around shades; that really will be the final nail for me.

Touching - bunch of fuckers! Lol.

Right, it goes a little something like this.......

Never seen Editors before tonight, only knew little of their music but never been to Germany before and wanted to see Norbert and german Order.

Had the best time ever. Support bands were very good - Editors came on and was not too sure at all - but after 45 mins, they just kicked in with some fantastic shit! No lie - just reminded me of Jems for some reason, coz she loves them, then the nutter texts me, freaky! But was a very surreal experience to say the least. They were original without doing what has been 'done' before. Not sure i will go and buy the albums - but would see them live again!

Managed to delete 71 photos that Norbert took - hopefully i will be welcome again!

Good job I did come to Germany seeing as Arsenal are only going as far as scouse land!:laugh:

I saw the four times, now. It was the best. They varied the tempo more than before. Very amazing. We had a great time. It was a pleasure to meet Emily. But I will never give her a camera again.

Ems needs her bumps felt. *Calm down, calm down - a phrenology reference, alright?*

I've got no idea what 'The Editors' are like, but I hope she enjoyed the gig and got home safely :beer:

Sort of. I saw them in Barcelona last year but not sure that counts?

I was planning on going watching them in Toulouse last November, but it would have involved flying from Milan to Barcelona, then a train to Toulouse, then an overnight train from Toulouse to Paris, to fly from Paris to Zurich.

In the end, I concluded it wasnt worth it. I've seen them enough times anyway...

Are they actually any good?

Just off to listen to a track now. Answer in a bit.

Hmmm. They're not actually bad but there's absolutely nothing inspiring or original there.

A bit of a 'heard it all before' band.
