new album please seconded

THIRDED.

hot - seconded, new album - seconded, one of the best things i ever saw happen in front of me (seeing them live) - firsted

i'd like to see them back too, pooh to rawlings's fear of flying

oooh my favourite

that concert at the forum was possibly the most beautiful thing ive ever seen, what with the twinkling lights above and all.

sighs

I have been trying desperately to find a recording of that song 'Throw me a rope'. I know they've never released it, but surely some evil bootlegger would have a live copy somewhere.

I have had many impure thoughts about David Rawlings, he is such a hottie! I did encourage him to strip off when I saw them last (as he was complaining about the heat) but to no avail....

She's amazing. I only started really getting into Gillian Welch around six months ago. So many years wasted.

I had the pleasure of seeing their first show at the Prince when they were out... mind blowing. Two sets of over an hour each and at no point was I not transfixed. I'll always have a great memory of Dave Rawlings performing this great solo on his acoustic at the conclusion of which the crowd went so crazy that they couldn't even finish the song let alone start the next one for a good five minutes. It was really something special. From what I've heard though all the shows on that tour were.

yes, the forum was something else.

mind-blowing indeed! i had to sit down when i first heard her, doesn't happen too frequently

new album? fifthded

those shows in Melbourne were so amazing

marty brown got me into her when he programmed 'everything is free' during an interview on triple j about 4 years ago. I am forever in his debt.

I hope they go back to the more duo-y stuff for the next album. Having said that, Miss Ohio is my most sung-at-the-top-of-my-lungs-while-driving song.

OHHH!!! ME OH MY!!!

I don't listen enough. I like her.

I loved how Soul Journey opened up and they pulled away a little. Wrecking Ball may be my favourite song of hers/there's

ah, it's all quality.

That Forum gig was so beautiful. I loved David Rawlings' line "this song starts off slow ..... and then it just fizzles right out". I even loved their encore cover of "Long way to the top". I think Gillian played the bagpipes bit on harmonica. DR's 1935 Epiphone pworrhh!!! What a sound.

"this song starts off slow ..... and then it just fizzles right out".

Doesn't Neil Young say that on the CSNY live album 4 way street?

I am a geek.

Ahhhh... maybe that's who he was quoting. I'm annoyed I can't remember which Gillian song it was.

they pulled out Girls Just Want To Have Fun in Sydney.

I've been playing the hell out of her cover of Radiohead's 'Black Star'. So damn good.

i've been listening to hell among the yearlings everyday for about 3 months now

my bff did a lovely cover of miss ohio on saturday

My Morphine just came on the WelchPod. God, what a song. Where is this new album!?!?!?

I really need a new album. This is just silly.

next year it will be FIVE years since the last record. WTF???

Step up Gillian!!

i have just discovered that i actually DO have soul journey, so rediscovering that has been nice. weird how the three most popular songs are the first three on the album

any news on a new album? i've been deleting my emails without reading them

mm, grape juice

Check out Patty Griffin, she is touring here in November - very similar.

Dear Gillian,

More please!

Also, a tour would be nice.

Love, IL.

Listening to a Dave Rawlings Machine show from October last year for the first time and its great. Elvis Presley Blues is ace with Dave in lead and Gillian doing backing. And now Throw Me A Rope has started and is kind of blowing my mind... Reminds me of The Palais show, such an amazing night.

New album please. Getting impatient.

I think it's time to get into Gillian Welch, I'm guessing Time the Revelator is the best way to start BUT I really want to get her on vinyl- and she hasn't relased any of her stuff on said format !(which I think is just wrong considering her general sound). So I go to buy it on Itunes tonight and it's not available in Australian Itunes!!

She's playing hard to get.

yep, this lack of vinyl releases is ridiculous.
my collection feels so incomplete without it!
i want to be listening to gillian on my vinyl player when i'm 70, out on the porch with a whiskey and a shotgun.
i'll die a happy man.

Just realised it's been 5 years since the last album. 5 YEARS!

Who does she think she is, Axl? At least he put out a live album while we were waiting.

Well, you could go here...

I love you fez.

I've been making do with a 2-disc live thing from97 I found somewhere (can't remember where now).

Aw, shucks.

I like that recording a lot. Sun Ra namedropping and a crapload of songs! AND it doesn't sound like it's recorded out of someone's front pocket.

Bargain.
