Hello everybody (everybody being the 101 profile views our blog has... HOORAY!)
I've really missed being able to post on the blog, but unfortunately I've come down with a sore throat and a bad case of homework overload! :)
Today I had quite a lot of fun following Keanemusic's new Twitter, that they now plan to use during concerts to post. To subscribe here is the link: http://twitter.com/keaneofficial
I think the whole thing is rather ace, and hope they keep it up! :D
speaking of gigs, I would like to send a shout out to Asta, Annie, and all of Angelica and my other forum friends who had the great opportunity to go to Keane's massive O2 gig yesterday! Hope you guys had a great time and I am going to try to get at least Asta to post her photos on here for everyone to see! If anyone else who is on here went, make sure to post your story, photos, or youtube clips in the comment section!
Another thing, I read an article/review on Keane and thought that this would be a great place to set up a discussion on it. In this article:
http://www.keanebackline.info/site/features/opinion/apathy_killed_the_video_star/
A fan expresses her thought that Keane's "mediocre" videos prevent them from getting new fans. I have wondered about this before and actually took the opposite side of her argument. I think that, of course, Keane is all about the music and true fans (and up-and-coming fans) will not be deterred by what they think are "bad" videos. What do you guys think?
Here's another article with Tim (we need to make Angelica happy right?):

I did find it interesting because Tim reveals what the song 'Atlantic' is about (which is something I always thought about).
Last thing before I go- because I live in San Diego I was able to listen to the LA radio station 100.3 The Sound where, from 6-7 last Sunday, Tom was able to dj for an hour. It was really great, and the songs and his explanations were very cool to listen to. Here's the set list if you missed it:
Radiohead- House of Cards
Jimmy Cliff- The Harder They Come
Talking Heads- Once in a Lifetime
Jeff Buckley-Last Goodbye
U2- Beautiful Day
Carole King- So Far Away
Depeche Mode- Personal Jesus
Beatles- Help!
ABBA- The Winner Takes It All
Bruce Springsteen- The River
Blur- This Is A Low
Nick Drake- One Of These Things First
As you can see, it is a very eclectic range of music... but also really great! Feel free to comment on Tom's choices here as well!
Check it out here, along with an exclusive interview with Tommy:

Well, gotta go now and I'll make sure to write again soon!
