Am I missing something... these albums are already out

We're talking about when they play songs from them live.

Rowan apparently makes an appearance on the new record.

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 12/5/2004, 4:10 pm

He's been doing the writing, actually.

Why are they gonna be bad now?

They used to be awesome...

But thanks for clearing that up...

Also why is Rowan Atkinson going to be on an OLP album?

MR. BEAN HIMSELF!!!!

Therefore, it stands to reason that they will likely be bad.

'Don't Stop' was actually written the night Rowan was conceived.

Is this a joke? Jonny knows jokes!

Long Jonny · Post by **Long Jonny** » 12/5/2004, 4:18 pm

I pity the fool!

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 12/5/2004, 4:20 pm

who doesn't phone home!?

But in all seriousness why are the Happiness and SM songs going to suck now?

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 12/5/2004, 4:22 pm

No mikey

Mike is the man, the main man with a plan! The planned main man who's main with a stain! but I've seen OLP with Steve a few times and the songs were still superb live...

Long Jonny · Post by **Long Jonny** » 12/5/2004, 4:24 pm

I think he means no Mike E.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 12/5/2004, 4:25 pm

Well dude, when OLP went back to a four piece band. Their music from Happiness and SM is going to sound stripped down. For example: I compared Theif from 2001 and 2003. The 2003 versions sounds "barren and empty"

Long Jonny · Post by **Long Jonny** » 12/5/2004, 4:26 pm

And I'm actually looking forward to hearing the new album and tour with just the four of them. I mean, it is cool to hear the songs raw with mistakes and everything- it adds a whole new dimension to the song.

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 12/5/2004, 4:26 pm

Well Mike E is the man. One of the friendliest dudes around!

Yeah but OLP's 1995 stuff sounds better than their 2001 stuff, when they used to freestyle a lot of their stuff on stage without earpieces and what not. Those were the wicked awesome concert days.

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 12/5/2004, 4:31 pm

True, but back then, their music was arrange for one guitar, not two.

Lando · Post by **Lando** » 12/5/2004, 4:32 pm

and it was superb!

^^^ has got a point

i prefer to hear the older live stuff, as its so much more RAW and as if it was designed to go thru one wire, into an amp and turned up loud

yeah the 2001 tour was awesome, and sounded good. things change in 6 years ay know?
