Music: Looney Tunes from Our Lady Peace

No Peace for the wicked…

Our Lady Peace are highly recommended by Classic Rock‘s own Sian Llewellyn.

Track: Our Lady Peace – As Fast As You Can

File under: Looney Tunes from Toronto

Quoth Ms Llewellyn: “Here’s the new single from Our Lady Peace, who folks like me wot like that slightly alt.American (well, Canadian in this instance) radio rock like.

“Kinda topical since they’re playing Trafalgar Sq on the weekend and two dates at Islington next week. Am going to see ‘em, they used to be very good.”

The dates are: London Trafalgar Square July 1, London The Garage 2 and London O2 Academy Islington 3.

As Fast As You Can is taken from OLP’s latest album Curve.

If you like what you hear, there’s a free download of another of the band’s songs, Fight The Good Fight, here. (Email sign-up required.)

Rest In Peace, Clarence

  We were at the U2 concert when we heard the news.  I have to admit, the sadness I felt at this loss overshadowed the evening so I won’t be doing a review of the show.

Anyone who’s read this blog for a while knows how I feel about Bruce and the E Street Band.  21 of the best nights of my life were spent in the presence of this man, and no one will ever be able to fill his shoes.

My heart aches for his family, friends, bandmates and, of course, Bruce.

Thank you, Clarence, your talent, your style, your voice and your smile made the E Street Band come alive.  You will be missed.
