PARACHUTES @ der Maennerchor Cathedral Room Harrisburg

I just wish they'd been the opening act for Jonsi when we saw him. They had Mountain- & nobody liked them ;( This is light- years away from that-just gorgeous. ((Alex))

Jónsi's boyfriend isn't the singer but one of the guitarists (Alex Somers) and the first album of Alex and Jónsi will be released on July 20th (their name is Riceboy Sleeps).

I saw them with Sigur as well. I believe the singer is Jonsi's boyfriend. That's right, Jonsi is gay. Not many people know that. And it makes sense, I have trouble labeling him at all myself. He's more extraterrestrial I think. Most those Icelandic bands seem to have some otherworldly quality to them, in my opinion....

I think most fans of Sigur Rós know that :P

what is this fantastic song called? I cannot wait for this album.

I believe it's called Of Sleep. I found Parachutes when they opened for Sigur Ros, even thought they were Sigur Ros. Anyway, I'll be getting the album once it comes out.

Amazing! Saw them open for Sigur Rós this weekend and this song was my favorite! :)
