Weekly Update

This week we’ve set up a section called Video Series. For now we’re featuring 3 series of videos by the fantastic Donal Scannell: Witness 2001 (which has been on our site), songs by the Valmez Campfire in 2001, and set of songs performed in the Uhls Sauna Session. Donal is a long time documentarian of the band and we’re ecstatic to have him as part of our site!

In addition we have a new page called Live Recordings. This is just a handy list of bootlegs available in various places online as at this point in time we don’t plan on hosting them ourselves.

On to the other updates:

We’ve added a couple more Glen dates in NYC in February and more setlists throughout.

There’s a bunch of previews/reviews/interviews from Colm’s stint in Australia this month including a radio interview with ABC Radio. Check them out here on Colm’s gig page.

Weekly Update

Hi all!
We’re happy to note that it’s already our 1 month birthday and we have yet another mega update for you! Before the list of handy links to the new goodies, we have an extra special update to mention first. If you haven’t heard of or seen Zoran Orlic and his grand book about The Frames, now’s your chance! Zoran has graciously shared select photos and excerpts from his 2006 ode to our favorite band. We are honored and super stoked to bring these gorgeous photos to you, but these are just a part of what is in the book. So many great stories and photos, it’s a must have for any Frames fan, especially those of you who spend a lot of time on this site. We’ve also included a couple of audio clips from the book signing at Gallery Number One in Dublin (comments from Glen and a performance of The Dancer). So go check it out and please let us or Zoran know what you think! In addition to the new section, we are also now featuring some of Zoran’s photos on the homepage!

Now on to the other updates…

We’ve added another new section called Television to keep up with all the lads’ tv performances and interviews (this includes any internet channels/media that don’t fit into the Print section). So far we have about 10 videos/links to videos there (including a Joe interview from 2007 and a 2008 piece on Colm from Imeall)…please send more! We love these.

A few new dates under 2011 including, of course, The Frames’ 30 March performance of For The Birds at Vicar Street, Glen performing on 18 March at Dublin’s St. Patrick’s Day Festival and The Swell Season at Coachella on 16 April! FYI- Rob will be performing with Colm at his Australian dates at the end of the month.

We are honored to feature some of photographer Zoran Orlic’s photos of The Frames on our homepage! Zoran is the photographer and author of a book about The Frames called Behind The Glass. You can read a little about Zoran and his book here and also visit his website at Zerostudio.net. Keep an eye out on our site for more from Zoran soon!

We’ve moved Ivi Rebova’s lovely photos to the Photography section (thanks Ivi!), so please be sure to go check those out if you are new here and didn’t see them before!

Weekly Update

Another update so soon you ask? Yes! We have some cool stuff to share and didn’t want to wait for the weekend. But first, this afternoon we were both really pleased to be able to watch the Imeall interview on TG4 from our respective cities stateside! It was a fantastic piece and highly recommend you to check it out at the link.

Like always, we’ve added even more setlists and show comments, including some from the earlier years. When we have just setlists for a gig, they are not added to the +Content section so you have to poke around for those.
