Title: Frost*fest CD
Post by: keithd on July 10, 2009, 10:36:39 AM
So, having received the CD yesterday and promptly added to my Ipod, I went to the gym this morning and started listening only to burst out laughing at the intro. Cracking piece of work there Jem :D

The intro tape bit has been up on LastFM, well it was there a few weeks ago at any rate - can't check from work.  :)

And yes KeithD, it is indeed very funny :lol:  8-)

This is an absolutely brilliant CD all round - I don't know if there was tons of fixing but the whole band sounds really tight and energetic... amazing versions. Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

Played it to a drummer friend last night and he was VERY impressed - particularly with NDV's playing.

The CD is a nice little reminder of what was a pretty amazing performance  .. everyone sounds great, but NDV came off the bench and batted one out of the park   :shock:

Well I have just inserted the disk and OMFG!!! I'm glad I wasn't drinking my iced tea during the
intro!!! That is absolute FAB!!

I have to say 'hats off' to Nick D. He's obviously done a superb job of fitting into TBE's shoes.

No, no, it's probably a typo. I think he meant this (//http://www.diseaseproof.com/archives/debunking-diet-myths-whey-too-much-protein.html)  :?

Hats off for the drum sound btw. They sound MASSIVE! Like "oempfh!" and "thumbfhuha" and "kaphoooewh!".

I'm a bit of a late starter (SORRY), but I suppose better late than never.

I just took delivery of my Frost*fest CD today and OMFG it is absolutely amazing.  That intro is hilarious but very fitting to a great band.

The sound on the CD is awesome.  Can't wait to piss the wife off and play it when I'm in the car next.  MWAH HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAHH.

Sorry if that has already been asked somewhere, but are the intro tape lyrics somewhere ? My english is not good enough to fully grasp every line, and the ones I got right just cracked me up, so I'm in dire need of the others  :mrgreen:

Anyone ?

Great live record by the way, with a truly awesome sound overall... You really are a production magi Mr Godfrey... Can't wait for the complete show to be released !

Here you go....

Our name is Frost*....how do you do?
We're here today to play for you.
We've come all this way, we came on a plane
We're from the UK, where it always rains.
Apart from Nick and his beautiful locks
But he's only on loan from his friends in Spock's
To join us in Frost*!
To play some songs (Frost* songs)
That is why we are here (that is why we are here)
Although we plan to also drink your beer,
We're full of excitement, we're full of glee,
Except for Dec, who thinks he needs a pee...
The boys are ready, they're ready to go (never more so)
Even that nice Mr. D'Virgilio
So ladies and gents, it's finally time
To welcome on stage in an orderly line,
John, John, Jem, Dec and Nick....
Wonderful Frost*!
Glorious Frost*!
W-O-N-D-R-E-F-U-L Frost*!

 :D

Fabuloso!
That's sooner than I'd expected, given the amount of work and/or miscellaneous shite that you've been dealing with lately.
In fact, I'd resigned myself to not expecting anything so that it'd be a nice surprise.
And Lo! It is!

Fantastic news ! I've been listening to that CD so much, I can almost see through.

And please don't thank us mate, we're the ones in your debt for such auditory delight. Not only does this live mix incredibly manages to preserve a crystal-clear sound, but the balance between every instrument is so subtle, so precise, so amazingly detailed at every second, it makes me wanna jump out the window and run naked in the streets on a wild grandma-killing rampage out of sheer astonishment. It's like when I first heard Milliontown and my foot tapped so hard I couldn't walk for a year.

And did I mention the intro tape cracked my head wide open ? Then a whole herd of hysterical gnomes dressed like purple lightbulbs came out laughing. That was weird.

Great news i really cant wait to hear it especially milliontown also i hope this doesn't sound like I'm a little bit of a big head but i cant help being very proud of the fact that jem chose to take notice of my suggestion  and name it the Philadelphia Experiment a little bit sad i know but there you go.  :D

Be proud, I can assure you that Jem wouldn't have used it unless he was 110% happy with the idea. I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out that he had in fact already thought of that or something very similar. For me the first time I saw the title it seemed the obvious one! Well done sir!
