My Semi-Annual “I Miss The Frames” Post/Rant
When do we get a new Frames record? Hell, forget the record — when do I get to see the band play live again?
I know they’re supposedly working on a new Swell Season album, and that’s great, but seriously… the best band in the world can’t just disappear.
Here’s a few songs to ease the pain of separation:
The Frames, “40″ (U2 cover)
The Frames, “Races” (live on Irish radio)
Glen Hansard, “Hairshirt” (REM cover on Late Night w/ Jimmy Fallon – via Culture Bully)
Yeah I know how ya feel there! I remember feeling quite sad at the prospect of never hearing a full set of ‘The Frames’ tunes while I was at a Swell Season gig. Maybe the break-up of Glen & Mar might mean a new Frames album is closer than most people think! Also last June was the last time ‘The Frames’ played as special guests in Dublin to Neil Young!
Well, we’ll have to wait, won’t we?
Saw the Frames play in Petrol a while ago, and also in Ghent (BEL), both gigs were really awesome. Can’t wait to see them again, hopefully with a new record out.
