Live speculation

bkillsb · Post by **bkillsb** » Mon Feb 03, 2014 10:51 pm

the thought of them playing live is almost too much for me to handle but i'll go to wherever they play. i am also expecting a hefty tax refund soon so that'll be on standby

glad someone brought up portishead live. i've seen them numerous times live going back to April of 1995 & they're brilliant. the last time I saw them live was 2 nights in a row at the Shrine Auditorium in DTLA and while it was very expensive it was well worth it.

I hope they will do a show in an easily accesible location which is cheap to get to. And no secrets, like Red Moon...

Someone posted on my Twitter that he's seen some pics of song titles on some decks on the bands official page. Did anyone see this?

Direct messaged him, just waiting on a reply.

Don't know yet, waiting on a reply from him…his message;

"Something mentioned on the forum and the official boc page started posting pics of turntables with a set list. ..speculation."

Usually I'd call bull but with MDG in this thread it gives me hope
Also I'm sure this has been said before but now I really think MDG is Mike and Marcus. I just KNOW it

Not necessarily in that order either.

Life is all about priorities.

I too have a similar system, but it involves being without one of my two kidneys

Does this mean we can all start thinking of dream setlists and such?

Twoist · Post by **Twoist** » Tue Feb 04, 2014 4:48 pm

Dream setlists are great an' all, but I'd feel ultra-privileged just hearing them play anything they want to play.

Ok, fine.

PLEASE PLAY BOCUMA.

Thank you.

"Bocuma" would be swell.

I personally would love to see "Chromakey Dreamcoat." I'd imagine that "Dayvan Cowboy," while not my absolute favorite, would be larger-than-life in a live setting.
