i saw them at an outdoor festival in the middle of the day promoting Days right after Britta joined. i was not there to groove and did not appreciate their interest in old-timey microphones and sunglasses.

ha, luna in the middle of the day outdoors seems wrong in many respects.

though this is kind of funhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOQx1IkN2II
keep clicking on the other Luna thread [which i do not understand] thinking it's about the band. luna was a great band.

When Dean and Sean clicked onstage, it was awesome.

Luna with Stanley and Justin was a great band. Less so without them. Was listening to "Bewitched" yesterday and it remains a beaut.

Yeah. I liked Lee Wall a lot too though but that could be because I saw them ~6 times when he was with them.

I love Sean.
AW I MISS THEM
yeahhhh. wouldn't be shocked if they got together and toured again sometime. i just watched this for the first timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzdRtNfFEVIstick around for sweet jane w/ mcenroe at the end. weird. john mcenroe had a TV show!
― tylerw, Friday, 19 October 2012 16:30 (eleven years ago) link
Ha, definitely thought of the band first for a long time when I saw the other thread. Just listened to "Chinatown" - is the vocalizing at the end supposed to be reminiscent of "Satellite of Love"?

it's no junior dad, but it's pretty good.
tho dean and lou harmonizing at the end is maybe not the best idea.
― tylerw, Friday, 19 October 2012 17:27 (eleven years ago) link
Is it as bad as Pete and Lou or Elvis C. and Lou or ... oh wait.
― Cosmic Fopp (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 19 October 2012 17:38 (eleven years ago) link
lou is a tough dude to harmonize with. though i understand there are lulu outtakes where lou and hetfield do some everly brothers numbers.

No way

Eh. Like Luna a lot, but the band lost so much after Stan and Justin left. Those first three albums are great. The rest is like one big, long album I only want to listen to once, though enjoy while it's on.
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 13:30 (nine years ago) link
Agreed
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 29 October 2014 13:34 (nine years ago) link
I agree too but that still doens't mean I'd be pscyhed as hell to see them again.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 29 October 2014 15:13 (nine years ago) link
They're playing in LA. I am sad I am not in LA.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Thursday, 12 February 2015 17:43 (nine years ago) link
me too... :'( seems like they are planning more stateside shows in the fall, though? would love to see luna again.
― tylerw, Thursday, 12 February 2015 17:45 (nine years ago) link
heard an upcoming, very good record by a band called houndstooth and it had a little luna-ish flavor. more bands should sound like luna imho.

i am surprised I missed a show in 2002!
i think this is the last show I saw http://www.fullofwishes.co.uk/database/show/2001-06-14-luna-middle-east-cambridge-ma-usa/

Saw them in Glasgow on Sunday night, hadn't seen them live before and really enjoyed it. Setlist was similar to above (http://db.fullofwishes.co.uk/luna/shows/2015-08-02-luna-cca-glasgow-uk.html), flowed really nicely and I thought the Britta/Lee rhythm section was great - felt I actually noticed the baselines more live than I do on record. Now listening back through the albums chronologically.

So great to see Stan with the band.

he really is a great drummer -- like the perfect mix of charlie watts and moe tucker.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 14 October 2015 17:45 (eight years ago) link
If Stan (and Justin!) were back I'd see the band in a heartbeat tomorrow night. As it stands ... dunno.
