Petra Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) The left one (from his POV) And I really like their drummer Ricky & Nick: I think it's hilarious that he is so obviously wearing a band name shirt (I read in the Rock Bible which Ana gave me that you are NOT (repeat: NOT!) allowed to do that if you consider yourself a proper musician ).

Haley & Megan Meyer Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Whoa my gosh, just saw The Whigs last night in St. Louis and they were freaking awesome. They were the opening band when we saw The Kooks and Kings of Leon. So it was our third time. They remembered us and we got some pics and all types of goodies. Just thought we should post here. The Kooks and our family have some freaky birthday connections. Forgot to mention about Luke's birthday on the 2nd. That is our dad's birthday. Hugh is born July 19 1987 and we were born July 20 1986, so we are the same age for 1 day and then we are older:naughty: And Paul is born on our first cousin's birthday, not the same year, just May 23. That's a little information for you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakie Doke Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Yes, who and how? I have very unsuccessfully been trying to convert my friend for about a year now. She really quite adamently HATES the Kooks. but then she will say things like "oh, I like your profile song" or things like that, and I KNOW she likes that kind of music, I know she likes the sound of Luke's voice, I know she likes their acoustic style, and she is letting some ridiculous prejudice she has for them get in the way of a fangirlship that is just meant to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I apologise for my grammar mistake - it's "strange", not "strangely" (no adverb with "look" ). how can someone hate the kooks? No idea. Well, I know someone that hates them but she is a *insert extremly rude adjective* idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne84 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) I have liked The Kooks for about a year now and I finally got round to ordering their albums (the 2CD edition of Konk).

Petra Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) Could you please all go and do me the favour to watch these videos? It's not because I want the viewer rates to increase; it's simply because I think that they are really fantastic. I took them while I was still an ignorant ****ing twat (sorry) that didnt know the Kooks well enough to entirely appreciate a freaking CD release party in a 300 people church (!) in Cologne. I filmed, I didnt even know the song names, I didnt have Konk and I was standing right in front of Dan that was standing right in front of Paul (whom I didnt see at all). I didnt bother about that at that time though because I simply didnt know them (). I just stumbled over these videos and... uhm, watch them. Eddie's Gun: See The World: Ooh La: Some bad quality Sofa Song: (or this http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=2B08AB01D4869310 ) God, it's actually hilaríous when I think about it now. It seemed the whole time as if Luke was planning to jump into the audience and I was very when he finally did. This was, after Mika and a BAD Robbie Williams-gig, the very first proper concert of a band and... I had no idea what to expect. Like going to the Kaiser chiefs and not knowing that Ricky actually DOES crowdsurf. There is a video (some tour footage) with a lot of this Cologne-gig somewhere on Youtube. There was this unbelievably huge security guy that looked as if his favourite football club had just lost a very important game; he also told me during Ooh La to stop filming (). Damn. Anyway. There was this stupid girl that crowdsurfed and he took her from the audience (if that's the proper way of saying it) and he had one of his legs between these things on the other site of the barricade and he couldnt catch her properly and then twisted his leg in an ugly way. He was literally crying. God, that must have hurt like hell. Well, it just came up my mind. Haha, and after the gig the band came out of the church and a bunch of girls were waiting and someone was shouting "LUKE!!!" and he really came over before getting in the car and took a few pictures and ignorant, ****ing twatty me only thought that this guy (was his name Luke Pritchard? He was at least that lead-singer-guy.) should better try not to look so retarded. I feel bad for that. Or was I just being objective while I'm now a fangirl? (Luke ) Anyway, I was standing like 2m away from him then but all I could do was think that. Hm. Oh, and I'm still writing the (fricking boring btw) review of meeting Hugh :smth:. And now I shall go and watch Twilight in my bed . Because only Robert Pattinson is hotter than this band (Ok, uhm, no idea. They are equally hot. ).
