Gonzales - Solo Piano c/d

ah, I went to the last concert he did before this, in the same venue, the previous week.
it was pretty nice and roughly a rehearsal for this (he played there 8 sundays in a row before the attempt).
Must have been a nightmare to play/talk for so long... how was he by the end ? how long did he last ?

he stopped after 27 hours. i watched the last two; he was full of energy and smiling and playing really well. didn't seem fazed at all. it was fun to watch.

good. anything special at the end ?

Did he stop to go to the bathroom?

there was a little party at the end, lots of cheering and streamers and stuff... i don't know what the last tune was, but it was really great. xp yes he had a little pause every three hours or so apparently!

i'm sad i missed this. :(

can someone make an animated gif of the whole thing

just woke up, very hard to get to sleep. experienced hallucinations onstage, couldn't recognize people i knew in the backstage. wrist pain

The cover of Jamie Lidell's "Multiply" is just fucking incredible.

Amazing how much of this I remember from the performance two months ago.

On dis ting no hype.

oh man ANDREW WK AND GONZO PIANO DUEL IN NYC NEXT FRIDAY

after hearing his piano "cover" of Waves, my money is on Chilly.

Has it been officially released yet? Or is it just on Errol's 6music mix thing?

Just on the 6mix for now, but he said it was coming out (on 10" vinyl no less! curse that man for getting me back into buying vinyl) on Boys Noize records in, erm, November, I think?

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but it's a lot better than I was expecting.

hey i see that 'solo piano: deluxe edition' has popped up at juno today with a DVD of videos, concert footage and the like. i can finally retire the old mp3s of this!

Yawn. Call me back when they release a super awesome deluxe version of the Solo Piano sheet music book with "Salon Saloon" on it.

New song with Jarvis and a free record for every table.

Also plays the piano with his feet whilst standing on it.

Hi guys. I've fell in love with overnight. I NEED to play it on the piano,

but would love to strum some of his his chords and melodies.....help

THAT'S EXACTLY HOW I FEEL ABOUT SALON SALOON.

Yeah Salon Saloon is lovely, Mr. Snrub

d/ling as we speak

Really looking forward to 'Ivory Tower'.

What is the song being played between "Touch It" "Dangerous" and "A Milli"? According to the tracklist it's "Vocal Chords" by Claude Vonstroke, but that's bullshit.

'Never Stop', a song off Ivory Tower, is on the Boyz Noise Myspace page. It's, err, understated.

Restating this as genius:

Everyone says they will not first turn
In France we are cheaters - is wrong
Never mind me I got our message of love
it comes straight from our hearts
Because we do not care that you typed whores
The most important thing is that you mark for goals!

haha love google trans.

lyrics are

Everybod'ys saying we won't get past the first round
that in france we're all cheaters
that's bad
but it doesn't matter - i got our message of love
that comes straight from our hearts
we don't give a damn that you're screwing whores
cuz the most important is that you score goals

Boysnoize Records proudly presents CHILLY GONZALES’ latest stunt “I AM EUROPE”, lead-single to the highly anticipated album IVORY TOWER (produced by BOYS NOIZE) which will be released worlwide in August through CHILLY GONZO´s own imprint GENTLE THREAT.

I AM EUROPE is not only a lyrical genius, it sends you on a disco – ride, building up and breaking down to finally echo the great entertainer´s mind about “Europe”, a “Toilet with no seat, flushing tradition down”.

is the chess movie going to come on a DVD with the album, or do they actually have some Canadian/French releases or TV screenings lined up?

On the new iPad advert.

good news, the original is one of my favourite mood-pieces

indeed - if I knew how to, I'd probably be able to whistle the entirety of that album.

I'm also excited for this. Chilly Gonzales is so cool.

Lovely lovely album...makes you wonder why he hid his Light under a bushel for so long...

snrub, did you ever get these?
