Wilfrid Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Bringing my obsession to where I can be ignored. Not only are they performing “Caribbean Moon” on the near sold out UK tour, but also “Spanish Bombs.” I hope they haven’t dropped “Davy Crockett” as the insane closer. Getting used to seeing the new rhythm section but I don’t even know their names. It’s very clear from all the branding I am seeing that Hinds is a duo, Ana and Carlotta, with supporting cast; that is a change from how the previous four piece was presented, but I guess it’s honest.

Wilfrid Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 Countless clips from the UK shows (IG @hindsband) are just thrilling. I have to adjust to the new drummer looking like the old bassist (Ade); just a hair thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 4 Author Share Posted February 4 They are working on a Radiohead cover. Not sure about that. But they also just played Birmingham, a place I visited once in my life and got into a fight. Very strange for me to see these amazing stars selling out venues in places I would never dream of visiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 4 Author Share Posted February 4 Birkenhead I visited by taking the ferry ‘cross the Mersey from Liverpool but I never got off the other side. Hinds should consider Gerry and the Pacemakers covers. Ana singing “Don’t Let the Sun Catch You Crying” would make me very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 They are still doing “Davy Crockett” down in the audience. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 You're lucky. I've been living with "Davy Crockett" for days. Gabba gabba hey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Maybe I am just slow here but realized today that “Davy Crockett” is yet another take on “Louie Louie.” [i]Davy Crockett, ba da dum, da dum, ba da dum…[/i]. Maybe I can get Ana to have the band play “Louie Louie,” which would be just, well… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 First single from the new album is dropping at noon today EST. Looks like it's going to be on BC Radio 6 (happily I have the BBC sounds app). If it appears somewhere more accessible I'll post the link.

hollywood Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 So "Coffee" at noon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Indeed. Coffee and, apparently, cigarettes. Pretty song with a fuzzbox guitar solo from Carlotta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Here it is (showed up from YouTube in my email, apparently because I clicked to get updates from Hinds). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Interesting to see them very much as a duo. The old videos always featured all four band members. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hollywood Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 If you want to talk about good girl bands, shouldn't some consideration be given to boygenius? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 I had a great dinner at Francie tonight, conscious that I will be seeing Hinds about 20 yards away in a couple of weeks. Maybe I should invite Ana and Carlotta to Peter Luger’s after the show. I don’t think before the show would be good, given all their jumping around.

Wilfrid Posted March 12 Author Share Posted March 12 They were posting on IG looking a little soporific down at SXSW so I reminded Ana where she needs to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell101 Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Wilf, you better hope nothing happens to Ana because if something does, the cops will be calling you in for questioning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 I didn’t imagine bands at SXSW made this kind of commitment. Is this normal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Constant email reminders that every bottle at Francie is 20% off on Monday nights, so could walk ten yards from Baby’s and get hammered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
