So the impromptour begins

Currently in Germany, just played Rock Im Park. Was pretty good, dont think a lot of people knew who we were, but we had fun. Last night played Amsterdam which is always a good show. Tomorrow we play Madrid, then Rock am Park, then we start on the UK warm up shows. We played a new song that we've never played live before and it went down well, got everyone singing along, cause no one likes to listen to a song they dont know first....;)

This secret thing ive been working on will be revealed next week too. BIG WEEEEK, GOOOOD TIMESSSS.

Like you said, Amsterdam is always a good show!
The set was awsome (as was your choice of clothing ;) ) I absolutely loved "the end of the world", catching lyrics and beautiful melody.
Can't wait for the new album!!

By the way, I loved chillin with you guys, and it was too bad you had to leave.
I would have loved to chat with you more about tattoos and such... (remember...?)
You really got me thinking about that knife you suggested to me, but do you think it would match my gun??
thank you so much for signing it by the way! It was fun chattin' with you!

Anonymous said...

your gig at rock am ring was the best show of the whole festival. everyone says that. i can't imagine any other band rocking the crowd like that at 2 in the afternoon! ;) thank you so much for taking the time to sign autographs and talk to us! meant a lot. come back soon!!!!!

love,
christine

Anonymous said...

SO IT BEGINS!

can't wait for you guys in Jakarta!

do you guys going to have some sort of meet & greet there, btw? >.>

bullshit.Queen said...

ur show at rock im park was awesome.
"dont think a lot of people knew who we were" <- not true!
many people around me sang with u guys.
I stood in the first row ( only one, with a mega lolz shirt :D ), so i had to know it ! ;)


can't wait to see u again :D !
hope u had a great time in germany and u will come back again ;)

holy freak said...

hey Ian! you guys did a good show at rock im park! and, as already some guys here said, it's not true that nobody knew you. you were the most importaint band for me at rock im park! so it was a little sad that you've just played that short.
so you must not believe that there are no lostprophets fans here in germany!!
germany loves you ;-)

T.S. said...

I was recently in Germany, too - it was a lot fun. Visited Berlin for instance.

Hope to see you guys in Finland some day! Have a good summer!

miki_ said...

i love the new song! the chorus is pretty damn good. the rest i couldn't understand i saw a bad quality video :(
anyway...come to czech republic please with the tour!!!!! it's would be ass-kicking. ;)

Maxz said...

Astoria was incredible. INTEOTWBICSIFH (nice little acronym there) is an amazing song and it was played brilliantly.

Srsly can't wait until the new album.

Kathybabe1980 said...

It's funny that you honestly think that no one in Germany knows who you are. But I have to say that it was weired that you played the centre stage at Rock am Ring that early ....again... like in 2004. I mean you have been around for a while now. Well, anyways it's always great to have you playing shows in Germany and as everyone else...can't wait for the new album and the tour. We love you...and we know who you are ... even in Germany! :)

Iann...

Have you got a new tattoo between the guns on your stomach?
If so, what is it?

Alex said...

sorry about what happened at UEA, put a downer on it, but i had an awesome 18th birthday seeing you guys at astoria and uea, was worth all the money and stress! keep it real x

Hels said...

I loved your Kerrang interview, it was great to see a headliner that who understands what the festival is about and the importance of Donington in the british rock scene, rather than some of these american bands who maybe just see the pay cheque.

The bit about not being allowed to go by your mum was class. I had similar arguments with my parents, way back in the day, there was no way they would let me go. In 88, after throwing probs my biggest teen strop, my dad relented and took me down to Donington in time for the Maiden set and we stood outside the gates and listened for about 3 hrs, it was so loud you could hear perfectly, it didn't matter that I couldn't see anything, the experience was still fantastic.

I can't wait to see you and despite what has been said on the DL boards, I think when it comes down to it you'll have got a lot of new fans by 11pm sunday night - all the best

I was at your show at Rock im Park and it was really awesome. It's a pity that your show was comparatively short, but nevertheless I loved it. I've been at RiP in '07 before, and honestly, no other band managed to rock the crowd like you did that early in the day. =)
When I found out that you'd play there I decided that I had to go and see you come what may.
Thanks for the great show, I'm really looking forward to seeing you again! =)

FUCK!!!
Last train home is right!
ok well u guys rocked at astoria (i was the one that like ran over 2 u and hugged yoo before soundcheck!
but damn we waited ageeeeeeees for yoo guys 2 come out and say hi and missed the last train home :(
so we ended up waiting around for another hour or so in the rain (after being told that u guys just left in yo van without saying hi to the 10 people out back that waited for u guys)
:(
which sucked
but the gig was wicked
Nice tat
LOVE the writing faith no more ...good choice V.sexy ;D

staring down the stars said...

GRR!! this damned thing just fucking made me RETYPE my whole damn comment. gr. words cannot express my anger..

but anyways. comment{as best as i can remember; the original was better i swear.}:

ahh, i love your blogs more than you'll ever know. i don't comment often, probably because i'm lazy, but hm..

love you guys, can't wait for the next album. :)

'it's not the end of the world but i can see it from here' sounds pretty rad, you know, from the youtube videos i've seen.. i would've loved to see you guys perform it, but you know, when you live in the crappiest state {louisiana} in the crappiest country {the us.} with a supreme lack of any super flying abilities, you find it kinda hard to get to the uk..

but yeah. i'm sure the album shall be splendorific.

splendorific should so be a word- don't you agree? and when it's all popular, just remember that i first typed it while typing this very comment.

Sandra said...

I was at that show in Madrid. It was amazing, but i want more! :D
We are all waiting for your new work... sure it will be great!

Hugs.

Sany said...

Hey Ian! I saw you at Rock im Park! So many people were frustrated. You played so short and too early.
We had problems with our tent! To hunt our tent on the camping ground wasn't funny (it was so windy there). Do you have any camping experience?
We ran (fast, the stage was 2km away) to the centerstage and reached it at 15:35 o'clock but you played already. I read in the plan you should play at 15:40.:(
But you were fantastic although we came too late.:)
Our friends missed it, they stuck in a traffic jam.
You have many fans in Germany but Friday afternoon was too early.

I hoped so much you give an interview at Rock Antenne stage but obviously you were too busy. So many shows....I hope you are all fine.:)

Anonymous said...

DEAR IAN,

So i just saw some news about you guys doing a tour around Jakarta, Hong Kong, Seoul, Tokyo etc.

WHY NO AUSTRALIA?!

YOUR FANS HAVE BEEN DYYYYING TO SEE YOU GUYS LIVE SINCE THE LAST ALBUM!

WHY ARNT YOU COMING TO AUSTRALIA?!

YOU HAVE LOTS OF FANS EAGER TO SEE YOU GUYS!

PLEASE COME BACK TO AUSTRALIA!!!!!

XOXO
