A bit like bathing in cotton candy: sticky, indistinct, lurid, slow going. And probably not as much fun as it sounds, except for the headrush ignited by the emergence from fog to icy clarity. Is it churlish to hope for a choon in the midst of these deliciously gauzy textures?

Agreed. I saw him open for them as well and was happily surprised by his talent.

openers don’t tend to blow me away and when I saw him open for Atmosphere, that’s exactly what I was.

Definitely agree that he is underrated. He’s quite captivating live.

Sorry about that. Sometimes when you are putting up a bunch of posts, a via can slip through the cracks. Check out my other posts. I’m fairly religious about it. It’s fixed now.

Hey,
Not to bitch but but it’s good blogging to state a “via” of you got the track from another site.
And btw you didn’t even bother to change the album cover?! Plus you just stole the webart/remake of the albumart I did? LOL :D

Shock and awe! Couldn’t agree more, Siri. Usually, I could care less about openers, but Miranda fulfilled the true meaning behind a “warm-up” with her velvety tones. I came to see the xx. Two words: STEL LAR! As for the Friendly Fires, it took no more than 10 seconds of their dance tunes to get into the party! Impressive group combo with flow like Multnomah Falls.

glad to hear it Ian, I didn’t want to be the better man over here.
