Hey, I was just wondering if anyone else from the uk was out there? I have just found out the dates the band will be playing in April. Seen the guys twice before and cant wait to see them again.

Yes! UK here and massively pleased to see the tour dates

Thanks for posting that link, just got my tickets. Can't believe how cheap the tickets are, sure they are the real features ?

Have I ever mentioned how much I wish I lived in London???

Yep it is the real thing!!! If you go to the bournemouth villas website (www.villanightclub.co.uk) and look at the section on live bands it gives a link to the the official site. Just got a promo copy of the album and it sounds great.

YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!

I like you guys from across the pond. Thanks for making our boys feel welcome.

Have fun
Freddy

How many of you other Americans looked at the list and were at first surprised to see they had already booked shows for august and september?

Edited because I am an idiot

hahaha, it took me ages to understand you then! I was looking forward to some summer frolicks!

Aww, bless, they're playing the garage. They really are doing a step up everytime they come over.

I saw them at Brixton, although they were only supporting Kings of Leon. Thats the only show I've seen so far but I thought they were excellent. Roll on April !!! I'll be at The Garage.

I went to the Brixton show with the Kings too, but then had to take a closer look so went to see them at the Camden Barfly. Well worth it, songs are now cemented in my brain. See you at the Garage ...

Unfortunately I wasn't that organised though I did manage to get the album.

Their first UK show ever (July '03) was at the Garage. There were only about 30 people there, most of them Americans. Matt was so nervous and/or jet-lagged that he forgot the words to "Thursday" during the part where it's just him singing. It made for quite an uncomfortable moment of silence, so I decided to sing the words for him. He gave me a dirty look and skipped straight to the whistle chorus. What a priceless moment.

I have seen them a couple of times, reading festival 04 and at the poole lighthouse with the kings of leon. They are awsome. I love thursday i dont know why it isnt on the album!!!! Hopefully goin to try an get to the zodiac in april, should be amazing!

Why are The Features not playing any gigs in Northern England ?

They fear attacks by Viking hordes.... have you guys gotten that problem under control yet?

More or less but we do get isolated viking attacks of rape and pillage from time to time. Who is winning over there, the cowboys or the indians ?

The Cowboys rarely win. And that makes me happy.

ahh....stereotypes.

how do the people in england know when to clap during all the songs? i always wondered that.

and yes, at first glance, i thought, "wow, dates for august and september already..." then i remembered they're bassackwards.

Cleveland's a great town for baseball, but the Indians have been pretty disappointing as of late.

I noticed that the main clapping songs, See You Through and Dark Room, were not played when I saw them in Cambridge. I did noticed that there were other clappers behind me when they played TWIMTB.


On a related note, I saw a first country act perform in Nashville for the first time the other night. They used clapping, but no one from the audience clapped with them.

I'm a bit of a clapper myself, but it is a bit embarrassing when it's just me and Parrish...

Is Matt's middle name really Tiberius? That should make him fit in with the Vikings well.

YAY!

i know. when i first saw that they were playing in england i was like, hmm. maybe it's a *different* band called The Features?

but. it's not.

anyone else going to the MANCHESTER gig?

Anyone else going to Wolverhampton Little Civic on the 13th of April? Or Anyone been there before. If so is it good?

I 'll possibly go to the Manchester gig if they dont add a Sheffield date. I notice they have a few free days before the Manchester gig, so Im hopeful.

Just noticed the Nottingham venue is on Pelham Street. Matt will be honoured.

Cool. I always think of him when I drive through Pelham, TN. In fact, it's not that far from Sparta, TN.
