mandilambi Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I love them. Been waiting for the new album for what feels like forever! I hope to see them tour. They came near me years ago, but no one would go with me so I ended up not getting to attend. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurel Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I think most people on this forum have seen me mention this lot once.... or twice... or maybe three times.... I've been a fan since they started.... have seen them live loads of times (last time for 200 people in a pub in London.... I love saying that... it was a fanclub thing... Please Mika do something like this.... pwetty please) and they're absolutely lovely guys as well..... I love Ulysses..... I've heard alot of their new songs during live shows in 2007/2008 and also can't wait for the new album.... judging by what I've heard it should be amazing.... it's been a bloody long time since 2005 :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queenie Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I thought this forum had a thread! Shame on me!!! Fans since the very very beginning, when i met them thanks to the ancient Official Suede Forum on 2003, i think. I remember getting obsessed with Darts Of Pleasure and the teeth vid (the 1st one they made) and the history went on and on and on...I went to 3 gigs, i met them when they played here once.... I can´t change that they´re one of my favourite "modern" bands, probably the most favorite in that group, but the long wait made my fangurlism got sleepy Ulysses is an amazing song. I can´t wait to watch the vid, buying the singles, and the amazing album is coming out very soon! Album cover Different from the 2 previous ones, but i like it..They remain faithful to their style: black, white & orange Hahaha, Laurel! I knew you & i would be here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure either... but I followed that band for 16 years... so It would be nice just to see them play live again as a four piece..... I missed that in 2003.... the shows were good .... but not the same without Graham..... Think Tank is a good album.... but not what I'd call a Blur Album.....

Nostalgia sometimes isn't a good thing I have never see them live, but I think it will be great to have then touring again, playing their old songs, all together. And if I get the chance to see them........... better. Yeah, Blur without Graham wasnt Blur at all.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they're lovely guys I still haven't met Paul....... I´m so jealous!! I only met them once, they were in a hurry (their flight was delayed and they arrived late to the venue) and we didn´t take any pics but they were so so nice. I adore Bob. He´s the cutest thing (as Alex says, an angel XDDD) Paul seems like a cool guy, very funny. And his wife is the most beautiful woman I have flirty vibes from Alex. He seems like a guy who likes to fool around And Nick...i think he´s so talkative xD Edited December 3, 2008 by Queenie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I went to see them in Dundee.... I met them before the gig as well... and said that I'd come all the way to see them from Clacton... had overnighted it from London .... was knackered lol.... Bob gave me his plectrum and his setlist during the gig..... He's such a sweetie.... Alex signed the setlist after the show.... and wrote thanking me for coming all the way Nick never shuts up.... I remember having a ten minute mock argument with him about me wanting to just take a picture of him and him insisting I was in it.... as you tell from the picture... he won.....

They´ll make you feel comfortable and i´m sure you´ll have your chance I saw them in June last year... and they still are really down to earth.... so down to earth that Nick tripped over the curb cos' he was waving at us... and then looked so embarrassed cos' we all laughed at him.... but his face was a picture.... Alex is the same too..... he was off down the road on his bike ... but still stopped to talk to us for about 20 mins and signed and took photo's and everything.... I don't think they'll change...
