only seen them once

Post by Clumsy_Birdman »

as i live in the UK, ive only seen OLP once... they came over with Avril Lavigne. ive only been a fan for 2 years. they are not known in UK at all which really sucks as they're probably the most influential, lyrcially beautiful musicians in the rock genre ive ever come across...

i am travelling over the Atlantic tho this summer so hopefully catch some shows this summer, aswell as a 3 Doors Down show

the show i DID see took my breath away, they came out, Raine drinking from a bottle of water. in the dark as Talk Is Cheap started! i was stunned thru out the whole set apart from to sing along to the songs i knew at the time, i now know every lyric my head can fit in. Raine pointed me out during Innocent and i was given a hand written setlist from him, via the security guard... of course i framed it!!! waha!! :D

Devon,

welcome,

since you live in the UK- I would assume you signed up with Claire and Soozy site. If not it is www.ourladypeaceuk.com

there is alot of info there for you.

Seeing OLP in the states is fun. It is one step above England, but not much.

I don't know if they will tour this summer, but you might want to check out
www.pollstar.com or www.ticketmaster.com

for shows in general in the Atlanta area.

I know the Cotten Club has alot of shows and I think it is called the Pepsi Arena down there. I have friends that live in the Atlanta area.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I already asked this somewhere else, but which show did you go to? I was probably there (I did Brussels, Birmingham, Manchester and all 3 Brixton shows cos I'm a bit crazy!)
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.

And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.

That's OLP's way of telling you to come visit the hubbers in America next time they tour. :nod:

Just checked olp.cc... they played 4 shows in Germany on the Avril tour, and 4 on their own in 2002 alone. I didn't go back any further.

yes rock am ring was back in 1997!!
But I didn´t hear about our lady peace until early 2003 when Happiness... was suggested to me on Amazon.de, so i just missed their tour here... i know about their tour in 2002, also from the Gravity album.. there´s a sticker saying the tour dates on the CD! And in 2003, when they were supporting Avril I missed them, because i wasn´t very often in the internet at that time... i only found out about it one month after Avril´s tour was over :wtf: !! I was so angry with myself!! And a friend of mine even is a huge Avril fan... and she didn´t ask anyone of us to come with her to the concert, because she hasn´t expected anyone of us to come with her... but IF ONLY I KNEW.... SHE ONLY HAD TO TELL THE SUPPOTING BAND´S NAME ONCE :evil: :freak: !!!! :(

I seem to remember Raine saying something once about them having a Japanese or Australian tour semi planned at some point, but it fell through. I think they were going to support someone else.

I might be talking crap cos I'm exhausted again, but it I don't *think* I'm making it up.
