That was excellent. Was going to start a thread meself, but Biggy already did.
The new song sounded really good too, and there is deffo a sample in there, which bodes well for an evolving future. Roll on Summercase; might not that bad at all, musically.
I didn't see it, but did see them at Glastonbury in 1993 when they were the best fucking live band in the world. Really, I would gladly have died for them back then. They went shite later, but fuck me with a large bargepole, they were incredible.
I am also a closet homosexual.
I don't remember ANY of The Verve's set OR starting this thread OR eating two (2) small cans of tomatoes.
I had been wondering why I was singing Bitter Sweet Symphony in the shower this morning.
Do I win £40?
I'd love to see it again to confirm whether it was any good or just me being wrecked.
Mind you, I could get wrecked and watch it again, just to be on the safe side.
Reckon I'd be able to get the video from anywhere? Of the broadcast I mean? I got booted off all the video-sharing sites for being a leach which, ironically, I only became after downloading some dumb films that I had no intention of watching from Jarvo in order to help his download ratio.
I don't want to be in their dumb download club anyway. Bastards.

I'm always very impressed by your ability to remain coherent and articulate online even when you're inebriated, Col. It's a special talent, and you should be very proud of yourself.

I never doubted it for one second, my friend.
I've sent a couple of pictures to your phone, just in case.

What, again???? It was fun the first time, Col, but this is just getting ridiculous.
Can't you just buy me flowers or summat??
They were absolutely amazing.The new song LOVE IS NOISE is fantastic,sounds like one of those records that you put on in the car,and you end up putting a little too much pedal to the metal...erm. Would make a wicked dance track too.
Love is noise?
No, Monty, love is receiving a digital photo of Colin's erect penis on your mobile phone. I know that kind of lovin'....

Whatever next? A collaboration with the Killers??

Aye, nobody listens to gay disco anymore.
It was the highlight of the set my a country mile, cloth ears.
No the gay disco was fine (a genre i like). But the verve, oasis etc still seem to be peddling the same pub rock anthems which people still dont seem to want to leave behind

What does that mean? The video or just the sound.
Oh I wish I could get down with the kids have me some bitchin downloads.
Reckon they'll sell it on DVD? I'd keep it with my 'watch when you're spannered' disks ![]()

Ah yes, the opinion of a man who clearly thinks the Verve did nothing else but the Urban Hymns singles.
I can't see many similarities between Oasis and The Verve. Oasis do songs, The Verve are more techno-like in the way they their tunes develop.
Of course, you seen one cocky floppy-haired Northerner in front of a band you seen em all.

This is very true.
But then, you'd have to be a complete idiot to think that A Storm in Heaven or A Northern Soul are anything like any Oasis record.
A very moving performance and a fitting end to the festival.
Loved the new single live woo hoo woo hoo ah ha woo hoo woo hoo ah ha

It's not gay disco either.
