Shins cover the House of Love

so before the Stone Roses came along and turned me into a Golden God, I was a 'sad mopey write poetry sit in my room and wish that a real live girl would kiss me one day kid.'

and now the Shins are covering the House of Love.

"Destroy the Heart she said, it'll make you wanna smash your head..."

and thankfully, the Roses came along.

"Kiss me where the sun don't shine, the past was yours but the future's mine"



Fighting Against Making the Pie Higher! Always Fair & Balanced....: "The Shins. No surprises. Good presence, great energy. Considering their recorded output, it's easy to figure out that they played their entire catalogue, plus a cover or two. The one that Lou caught as a cover was House of Love 'Destroy the Heart' (a band i remeber the album covers of, but have no memory of.) (She also caught an aborted attempt of what seemed like the Jam. Yes, Lou's much better at spottign covers than i am.) I had no clue that the keyboardist is as clownish as he is, and i now see why in photo shoots, they often wind up wearing capes. In fact, it was a little strange to see how much attention he drew from the audience, while the actual frontman remained off to the side, and didn't interact with the crowd much. It's a nice to see that a band is as polished and seasoned as they seem on record"
