Wall of Mouths

Got my ticket from fnac with the 5 Euro discount from De Standaard. :) Lucky thing that I saw the discount in the newspaper the day before I was going to get a ticket.

Okay, I gave detailed instructions at the time of the HA release. Just look in this thread http://www.therapyquestionmark.co.uk/wallofmouths/showthread.php? … eadid=2693

I would have thought that a community leader knows everything that was ever posted :D

I intended this thread mainly for the Dutch speaking crowd in here, but it’s good to see that everyone is doing their best to get T? some attention.

So don’t forget to vote once a week!

Title: Humo’s top 20

Just to let you know that you can vote for Rise Up in Humo’s top 20. Just go to http://www.humo.be and the link is in the right column.

It seems I’m the first one to get to a computer after the show. It’s now late afternoon, so I hope the rest didn’t get lost.

Anyway, very good but short show. 2 new songs played: Rise Up and Die Like A Motherfucker.

They opened with Meat Abstract - Nowhere - Teethgrinder. This really is a killer opening. The rest of the setlist was similar to the latest shows. I leave it to Robby or Roxy to give the complete setlist.

During the encore Andy did a solo version of Diane and then totally fucked up during Isolation. T? were all laughing. They also had to stop the last song, Hey Satan You Rock and continued with a “jazz” version, as they also did in Weert last year.

got it as well

Welcome.

I would recommend Semi-Detached as your next purchase.

Dead Shark was played in Weert, but I don’t think it will ever become a song. It was just T? making a lot of noise. Andy introduced it as saying that they would improvise something new during every gig that tour.

I heard Screamager on the radio in the early nineties and bought the ShortSharpShock EP second-hand a few months later.

Then came Troublegum and shows at Werchter and I kept buyng the albums and going to the shows ever since.

You missed Isolation and If it kills me.

It felt like seeing them on the Troublegum tour. Only 3 songs from after TG, of which 2 new songs.

I wonder why they do this. I like TG and before, but it’s more than 10 years ago by now. Great to hear Meat Abstract though.

Babyteeth 8
Pleasure Death 7
Nurse 8
Troublegum 9
Infernal Love 9
Semi-Detached 10
Suicide Pact-You First 8
Shameless 9
High Anxiety 9

Thank God I’m over 30 :D

They are all vital. Nobody’s mentioned Nurse yet, but it’s also a great album.

I would recommend Semi-Detached as well.

Innocent X
Accelerator
Heaven’s Gate
Dancin’ with Manson
Joey

I’m not voting, because my favourite (live) line-up is different depending on the song.

Martin, as I said in the other thread, you will be missed.

Thanks for the many years, the great shows, the great albums and thanks for taking time to talk to the fans. You’re part of some of my best memories and that will never change.

Good luck to you in your new projects and keep us informed.

And good luck to Therapy? as well. Keep going guys.

Hi there and welcome. Yet another Belgian :D

I’m the guy on page 3 talking to Andy.

And it was not so hard to recognise you, Robby. :)

I’m in shock.

Martin, you will be missed :(

Guess who’s going to Belfast. :D

The shows in Dublin in Cork have been confirmed now, though.

To avoid further confusion, I guess you mean Belfast, not Dublin here, as is in the tour dates list. ;)

Hi there.

So, what’s your favorite T? album and how did you get into T??

Hi there.

Semi-Detached would be my favorite, but I also like Shameless a lot.

This is on its way to become a Shameless-lovers thread :D

Title: T? reference in Offspring review

In a review of The Offsprings new album Splinter, are reviewer for Humo described a song as ‘starting with a mediocre Therapy?-riff’.

So T? are now used by reviewers as a standard for other bands to live up to. :D
I’m glad they get mentionned, even if it’s in some other band’s review.

Best wishes to all for the new year. May you see lots of T? shows, especially for people in countries that they haven’t visited for some years.

I went to see it last sunday, and it was a bit of a dissapointment. I’ve read the books about once a year for the last 6 years, and the 3rd book is far better than the 3rd movie. I didn’t have this feeling with the previous 2 movies.

The movie is much too short, I hope the DVD version will be better. It probably has also something to do with the fact that they had to cover the end of the 2nd book in the 3rd movie. Why they didn’t do this in the 2nd movie instead of adding bits to get Arwen in, I don’t know.

I listened to SMFTTYP in the car CD changer today and really noticed the difference in drumming between Fyfe and Graham.

So, I am now studying 3 versions of Teethgrinder:
- the album version (Fyfe)
- the Rock Ternat bootleg (Graham)
- the My Voodoo Doll single (Neil)

I’m not a drummer, so I can’t judge whether it is hard to play. But one thing is clear, Fyfe’s version is the definitive version.

Neil’s version is closer to the original than Graham’s, but it doesn’t quite get there. But it was the first time he played the song. And he isn’t there to just copy the original during live performances.

Graham’s version is just plain wrong in the verses, he totally misses the hi-hat rythm. But he does some interesting stuff in the break (with the “losing his mind” sample).

Graham seems to have more complex, not plain 4/4 rythm patterns. Neil and Fyfe are more straigthforward drummers. But there’s a definite difference between Neil’s style and Fyfe’s style as well. Neil uses his bass drum a lot more to keep the rythm going. Fyfe uses his snare and hi-hat to keep the rythm going. And Fyfe is ‘kid disco’ for a reason. I think Standinline’s choice of examples illustrates these points.

Bottom-line, all 3 versions get me excited and wanting to go see a T? show. I never realised before tonight that they were that different.

A bit more cello wouldn’t hurt, but it’s up to Martin and T? (as always :)).

Reading this thread has put Ten Year Plan in my head. This song really can’t exist without the cello.

A new T? album and a 14-day tour of Belgium, with me on stage to play the guitar on Knives one night. :D

And for the rest, pretty much the same as 2003, which has been a very good year up ‘till now.

Hi there.

There was a poll about people’s ages some time ago (see http://www.therapyquestionmark.co.uk/wallofmouths/showthread.php? … eadid=4026) and I guess you’re on of the youngest. But don’t let it stop you :)

Hey Martin, get well soon.
