The music, people and stupid moments that make up the nightlife
Last night, I picked up the new issue of
The Big Takeover, hoping it could get me inspired to do editor things. Instead, I spent a good hour consumed with an interview with Editors. You can find some outtakes of the interview over
here.
There were two portions of the interview in the magazine that I found really interesting. First, Jack Rabid makes the comment that there is a sense of "desperation" onstage that isn't present on the album, which is pretty much what I wrote here a bunch of times. Glad someone else noticed that.
Second, there is this bit when Editor Chris talks about the West Coast leg of the early-2006 tour and how he had an obvious eye infection and people wouldn't talk to him. Now, I found this really odd considering that Ivan and I were hanging around talking to him after the Cinespace show in January, smack in the middle of the pink eye debacle and there were tons of people vying for his attention.
Anyhow, this is a cover of Stereolab's "Laresistance" that Editors performed on the BBC. I have looked around and it doesn't appear to be available anywhere.

I think it's from the same session that brought us the "Feels Good Inc." cover that
The Rich Girls are Weeping posted a while back.
Then, if you have not heard this already, check out
Corinne Bailey Rae's cover of "Munich," taken from a KCRW session.
