Venice

WELSH WITCH · #1 07-26-2005, 01:30 PM

I would like to know what you guys think of the band Venice, that is if you have ever heard from them.
They are from

Venice California. On one of their albums they did their version of Landslide, it's pretty good. They also worked with Stevie.

The band isn't very well known in their own country but they are pretty famous in their home away from home, The Netherlands. I've seen them three times until now and come to the conclusion that they are a great live band. So if you ever get the chance to see them perform, go!

Venice are:

Michael Lennon
Mark Lennon
Kipp Lennon
Pat Lennon

I did get that record with Landslide a few years ago and I thought it was alright. But got a little bored with them

I haven't heard their latest things though, so I couldn't say anything about that.

Maarreh, hoi, Nederlander! Altijd leuk om hier nieuwe landgenoten te zien

Hoewel, met 60 postjes ben je niet echt nieuw natuurlijk

(transl, 'But, hi Dutchman! Always nice to see new fellow countrymen around here. Although, with 60 posts you're not really new of course')

I can tell you that their latest things sound a lot better then that particular record you talk about.

No, I'm not new. I haven't been here since I saw FM in Oberhausen. Been hanging around at other boards.

I WISH I'd gone to Oberhausen that tour, afterwards I heard of so many people I know (or got to know afterwards) who've been there! Do you know Werner, by any chance?
But London was wonderful too.
Stick around, eh?

No I don't know Werner, is he german??
There are so many new people here.

Oberhausen was great, even with a 39 degree fever. I was sick as a dog and living on asprin that day.

I will stick around.
By the way, we don't live that far apart if I remember correctly. I live close to Zuidlaren, I think you know where to find it.

Oh, I thought maybe you had met up with some people, I believe a whole group had done that. Werner's another Dutch fan I've known for years. (I haven't spoken to him in a while though, if you're reading this Werner, hi!

)
Zuidlaren??? Moi! Haha.. maybe we should meet sometime then

Moi,
It would be nice to meet some more dutch fans though, so when maybe if they ever decide to come this way we could team up and go together.
