    I have a dream of any kind of show to be honest. I'll settle for going to England if needs be.

    Same as that. Who knows how long these lads will keep this going.

    I read/heard somewhere that they want to make up to 7 or 8 albums.

    I may have imagined that...


    Edit: It turns out I didn't imagine it.

    He only does small parts on the album as a guest. Live he beefs up the sound. Yeah that Cologne gig though, watched it when it was first on, was sweet stuff. My least fav song, Interlude with Ludes...funniest live performance I've ever seen. Like the drunken uncle doing karaoke at the wedding:D

    Well its a full album that doesn't constantly stick to one style, and also happens to be very high on the rocking out side of things. Ita a damn good album, so people will of course praise it.

    I didn't really like the album, tbh. I was looking forward to it but, meh...

    I would have liked a different vocalist to work on it. Homme is just too QOTSA.

    Once again an album should be more than three songs

    Exactly. There are 12 great songs in TCV (discounting Interludes, reminds me of PJ and Vitalogy putting in filler just for the sake of it)

    I don't really. Thank God music is all subjective though, right?

    Could say that about hundreds of albums then. Songs 1-7 are deadly, then from 9-13.

    BigCheese, Ludes sucks on cd, one of the best things live. Almost a lesson in why kids should/n't drink full bottles of whiskey:D

    Wasnt big on Ludes or Daffodils until I heard them live, then they just clicked. Plus Josh's dancing just makes Ludes :D

    My vid from edinburgh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCNA2JM-8n4

    Really hoping they do an Irish show, they are so unbelievable live!

    I got a copy of the album, so haven't listened to it all yet, so I only watched the live show which seemed pretty cool.

    I hope the album is decent. I'm big into "all songs on an album have to be good"

    I know this is an old thread, but does anyone know if they're still planning on making more albums, and have they started on one yet?
