Title: Brixton
Post by Shaun on Jun 4^th, 2006, 9:27am

Brixton was amazing! I went to the Bristol gig on Weds and thought it coudln't get any better but boy was I wrong. The atmosphere and the crowd was just emence! As soon as it started everyone went crazy. Lotsa people fainting coz it was so great. PLus you can see me in quite a few of the pictures of the crowd, wayy!

I quote Johnny here "That was F***ing amazing"

I LOVE how well received the Goos have been over in the UK. I think that's amazing. I'm so glad you had such greats shows to see. I love it when the energy is like that ... it's electric!

oh my goodness! I have only just been able to get back to this board! My pc decided to die on me a week just before the guys came over to europe! But Lou & Nic have kindly been updating me on a few things, hope i didn't miss too much.
Brixton was absouluty AMAZING!! The engery from the crowd seemed so much greater than i remember it at the astoria gig. The whole night was just overwhelming, esp during when everyone sang iris! How immense was that!!! :D It did seem to be over really quick tho. �:(
I recognised a few people from the board, I spotted out Lou & Nic in the que, and i THINK you aswell Shaun, i only recognised that it might have been you from your website ??? Were you wearing like a beige shirt?

Had a biege vest under my shirt, but my shirt was open so may have been me. I was the one screeming "I love you Johnny" at the front lol. Did that at Bristol during the silent bit of iris and the crowd laughed, even john giggled :P

ye that was surprising, not one of my favs off the album but I thought they had it in their minds to have it as one of their big songs, the way he played it on website b4 any others etc

Post by DizzyNess on Jun 12^th, 2006, 6:07am

I was hoping they would play Name aswell, but they didn't :(. It did seem over quick tho, would have liked to heard a few songs from their other albums too, like cuz your gone, naked etc. How good would have 1000 words been if they played that! :D

Oh my goodness, i just did a search for goo's at brixton on youtube, and people have uploaded quite a few clips from both nights! I recorded a few on my fone, but i wouldn't have a cloo how to post it on youtube, and i don't think i have the right equipment. I can't get over how amazing iris was! I just watched it again, lol and i can't stop grinning! I loved the part when it went quiet, and john was like "are you ready"? and going "shhh shhh" building up to the chorus again! Was SOOO good! Hope the link works! It's like i'm back there again! Definatly brings back good memories! :D
