[kj] Official KJ site updated with news

[andrew scott]

Hosannas in my opinion was a little dissapointing when I heard it, did not think it was as good as 2003, was expecting better especially with Raven back on full time duties.  Was expecting something  a bit more in Extremities mould, perhaps unrealistically.  However has its moments, Majestic & The Light Bringer being excellent.  As for Democracy in some ways I actually prefer it to Pandemonium which had too much exposure to my ears etc.  Second half of D really great.  That's why I was so gutted when tour cancelled. Strangely opening track on H & D have similar feel to me, ie not the best start really.  Well as for Night Time, cannot say much more than it defined & refined my tastes really.  Also really regret not seeing them at Southampton on that tour as my Uni cancelled proposed minibus trip due to lack of interest, amazingly.

wow... People on here actually prefer Hosannas to Night Time? Night Time is the reason why I became a fan, to me Hosannas is almost "irrelevant"....

I agree--I think most of the songs on Nighttime are boring, and at least Hosannas has decent songs and a powerful sound, despite
their long lengths.

Following the recent-ish news that the Pussy Cat Dolls played a private gig for Gaddafi's son, I was with someone who works for an events company the other day and she told me that Goldfrapp recently did a corporate gig for about 70 business people to mark the opening of some new tower block/plaza in London. It might come as no surprise that I don't care about the Pussy Cat Dolls, but Goldfrapp doing this sort of thing I feel is just naff. Isn't Alison Goldfrapp rich enough already? I actually almost like Goldfrapp. Maybe they're not a principled band but I thought they'd have more style than to do some corporate bash.

I was also told that Rod Stewart played at the Sultan of Brunei's son's 18th birthday, whenever that was. I'm not bothered about Rod... but Goldfrapp!! 

Why do rich people do this? It's like Dawn French advertising Tesco. Why? And Goldfrapp... what's with them...?

Look at the festival schedule for KJ and then read the Tweet from Ben Calvert below it. I find this somewhat portentious for those of you planning festival trips this summer:

European Dates
10 Jun Poland Warsaw Sonisphere Buy Tickets 
12 Jun Germany Leipzig Wave Gotik Treffen Buy Tickets 
2 Jul Denmark Roskilde Festival Buy Tickets 
8 Jul UK Knebworth Sonisphere Buy Tickets 
22 Jul Finland Helsinki Tuska Open Air Buy Tickets 
31 Jul Holland Utrecht Summer Darknes Buy Tickets

Well I guess he can fly to Manchester on the 11th and back to
Germany on the 12th. Unless he's using Ryanair, in which case he's screwed.
