The Maccabees - Latchmere, The Guardian Lounge, Glastonbury 09

[hajney]

that is GOLD!!! :))

[rocky0von0rockerson]

me and my girlfriend, at the time, started chanting latchmere and everyone joined in. the band had to have a meeting onstage because they never play it. but they did it and it was fucking awesome. one of my favorite gig moments.

'latchmere's got a wave machine woooo-hoooo-wooo-hooo wooo-hooo!'

[carlo88moe]

if theyd have invited a girl up stage and hugo did what he did, the back of his neck wouldve been well soaked afterward

[MotherTeresa456]

@carlo88moe Crude but so true ;)

[carlo88moe]

@MotherTeresa456 yeah i guess that's a specialty of mine "holllaaaaa"

[carlo88moe]

@MotherTeresa456 oh you love him? hm, wouldnt have guessed it, lol

have u seen them yet? wished theyd come to california, but no such luck on their schedule thus far

[MotherTeresa456]

@carlo88moe Yeah I saw them at a festival here in Scotland called Rockness a few years ago (not to sure what year) which was actually the first time I had ever heard them and I am going to see them again in June at the T in the Park festival which is unbelievably exciting. I was going to see them in March somewhere in Edinburgh but I have a university Interview in the way so I can't go.

[carlo88moe]

@MotherTeresa456 i see, u could always forget going to university haha, but all our Macabbes-craze has its limits i suppose

[MotherTeresa456]

@carlo88moe I think that if I missed a University Interview for The Maccabees it may be pushing the limits just a tad haha, but sometimes life gets in the way of what we really want to do and we can do nothing about it. Plus i'm going to see them in june so it isn't bothering me that much, I can just be a crazed fan at T in tthe Park.

[carlo88moe]

@carlo88moe oh i meant orlando, but i guess the result would be similar if hugo did it too

[latchmere12]

my gosh, what I wouldn't give to be on orlando's shoulders, looked amazing, love the maccabees so much

[sonyson]

"swimming swimming swimming" "a lot of swimming", loved that at the start ;)

[3424lauren]

the guy on his shoulders is my sisters boyfriend :L

[carlo88moe]

@3424lauren sure he's not ur sister's girlfriend?

[rosablommigagardiner]

what's orlando saying? :)

[redmonkey949]

He said something like "if we do it and it's shit, you can't hold it against us - maybe a little bit" ahahahha

And then he said "we've not played this for about a year, out of principal, for some reason" :) and then something about "this sounds ridiculous cause it's pretty simple innit?" not completely sure aha

Yehhh, think that's pretty much it :)

[rosablommigagardiner]

Thank you! Pretty cute ;)

[antitainment]

@redmonkey949 i know you posted this over a year ago, but he says "it's gonna sound ridiculous cause the words are so simple, but i am gonna struggle" and then felix makes the whole "swimming swimming swimming" joke :)))

[Jacopomsn]

this is the greatest perfomance ever made!

[redmonkey949]

I'd like to think thanks to this gig and the crowds persistence in requesting this song - they've brought Latchmere back to the set list! Well, I saw them yesterday at Reading and they played Latchmere!!! So so soooo happy!!!!

[bellab6]

I remember that boy, cute :) I was so jealous

great gig though

[redmonkey949]

I very much wish I was back there!

[zappyy]
