Herculean says: I'm free lol www.myspace.com/herculeanmusic
melmaranian says: Fancy giving a shout out to Mel when you come to Cambridge?? Pleaaase??

James Walsh says: We hope to announce the European Tour very soon. We will definitely be playing festivals around europe during the summer
apollinaris says: cool!
SSimay says: Aww, that s cool!
theano says: European tour, cool!
dodovox says: greaaaatttttttttttttt

SSimay says: im waitin for it for years
miguelhayes says: is gonna be Spain on the list a possible european tour? i really loved your gig at Valencia!
sonic1 says: yey V FEST!!!
Emmi says: do you think the European tour will be before or after summer?
DarkDigi says: haha this is quite fast actually aint it
dodovox says: hard to follow indeed
Starsailor Boo says: Now you've done it James they're going to pester me for news like mad now!
James Walsh says: We would love to go back to Japan. It depends if we can get some money together to do it though.
goodsoulgirl says: V fest...
SSimay says: James is soo busy rigt now
apollinaris says: James, what is your personal favourite song from the last record?
James Walsh says: I think the european tour will be at the end of the summer into the autumn but I'm not 100%
SSimay says: That's nice
Emmi says: that's a pity
Emmi says: I wanted to go with my friend, but we're graduating in June
Emmi says: and she's French
miguelhayes says: alright! and do you know if you'll be in Spain by then?
gorgeousuk says: What about the V fest? n e more news????????
dodovox says: maybe european fetivals this summer ?
James Walsh says: My personal favourite is Boy In Waiting. We worked hard on the other songs but that one arrived fully formed. Its a joy to play
sonic1 says: Mine too.
SSimay says: its story is so interestin
** at 16:04, Guest_99014 joined the Lobby...  
** Please note: Some chat room features may be disabled for guests. Comments will not appear in the Lounge until they are approved....  
miguelhayes says: ah that's why you named the EP with Boy In Waiting right?
** at 16:04, goodsoulgirl joined the Lobby...  
DarkDigi says: Any chance of doing any gigs in wales? =) [Cardiff Newport Ect] =)?
gorgeousuk says: I like boy in waiting too - had it on my ipod yesterday as I was wandering round -really cheerful song
Emmi says: that festival in The Hague was nice though, intimate for a festival
apollinaris says: James, the front cover of "All the Plans" is the most enigmatic of yours so far. Is there any reason behind a boy, round mirror and people dining in background? Or is it just a collage without any particular meaning?
A.M.P. Japan says: I was wondering, where in Manchester are you from? That is if my information is correct.
James Walsh says: WE are in 'talks' with many uk festivals at the moment. I think the chart placing of the album will have a large bearing on where we are on the bill. I can say its looking good in the midweeks so that should .
miguelhayes says: what's the most different/never heard from starsailor song of the album you think James?
SSimay says: which one is gonna be thsecond single?
SSimay says: Starsand Stripes would be greast
SSimay says: great
gorgeousuk says: hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I really hope to see you at V
Herculean says: All The Plans for second single !
** at 16:06, gigwise joined the Lobby...  
sonic1 says: ha i like your sign. I think we've all bought it on here.
James Walsh says: I think the boy on the front represents dreamers' he's at that stage in his life where he is thinking about becoming a star or a footy player or an astronaught or something.
apollinaris says: cool!
SSimay says: yeah!
Emmi says: I wanted to become an archaeologist at that age
apollinaris says: i love this cover, really!
theano says: I missed the last part, V Festival for Starsailor?
Starsailor Boo says: Hang on, I now have a mental image of Barry as an astronaut
SSimay says:
sonic1 says: haha lets not go there..
miguelhayes says: and what about the other photos? the blode woman and girl on wheelchair? any meaning?
James Walsh says: I'm not sure which is going to be the second single. All The Plans,Hurts Too Much and The Thames are the main contenders for me.
Emmi says: Major Tom
apollinaris says: James, may be i missed this at some time in past, but may i ask you whether "Alcoholic" is an autobiographical piece?
SSimay says: hmm... hurts too much would be nice also
DarkDigi says: yeeah hurts too much is really good =)
gorgeousuk says: I love 'hurts too much' beautiful vocals as usual
miguelhayes says: is beautiful
Herculean says: Was just wondering James, as a songwriter do you feel you've progressed over the years and whats the song your most proud of [for songwriting]? (I'm a songwriter myself - sorry if that questions boring lol)
James Walsh says: I think the blonde girl has a meloncholy look on her face. Like she has been dumped or something. Hence the relevance to 'Tell Me Its Not Over'
SSimay says: that's so different cover, i like it
sonic1 says: another great song btw.
miguelhayes says: totally!
** at 16:09, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
goodsoulgirl says: agreed.....
** at 16:09, dodovox joined the Lobby...  
Emmi says: Is it hard to juggle both a family and a d?
Emmi says: emoticons... weird
gorgeousuk says: I thought she looked quite proud while the other people were looking quite dispapragingly at her. It's quite funny when you look at the other people in the photo
miguelhayes says: some people compared Tell Me Its Not Over with 'Keane' prototipe songs, are you agree with it?
James Walsh says: I feel I have progressed over the years but I guess the song I feel most pride in (although I must give credut for the rest of the boys contribution) is four to the floor. This song has been well recieved worldwide which means a lot
DarkDigi says: In the Uk tour [bristol and such] will you be playing mainly "All the Plans" or a mix of all your albums?
sonic1 says: Keane - Pah!
Starsailor Boo says: I keep thinking the little kid is Mr Boo in his lederhosen - there's a photo on the MB
miguelhayes says: James, i really jumped with 4 2 the floor in Valencia!!
Herculean says: Yeah Four To the Floors my fav off Silence Is Easy
Emmi says: Last week I went into a shoe store and heard 4 to the floor, it's the only song I ever heard hear in Holland
gorgeousuk says: when did you first realize you had such a distinctive voice - school choir or something??
Herculean says: great song.
DarkDigi says: Four to the floor is one of my favourite songs all together actually haha
miguelhayes says: it was a great warming for that day
James Walsh says: I can see the 'Keane' comparisons but people must remember we came on the scene before them. They should be asking Keane why do you sound so much like Starsailor?
SSimay says: i think the forth album's songs can be great soundtracks
gorgeousuk says: hear hear
apollinaris says: hehe!
miguelhayes says: yeah!!!
SSimay says: yeah!
Emmi says: hear hear
sonic1 says: AGREEED they'e pants your not
DarkDigi says: yupps =)
theano says: Don't even know who Keane is lol
Starsailor Boo says: Mr Boo has just arrived and said they're using TMINO as the sound track to the Cheltenham festival on Radio Five Live
James Walsh says: I agree it would be great soundtracking the next scorcese film!
Emmi says:
gorgeousuk says: Tom's guitar playing leaves a lot to be desired too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
theano says: Cool!
Starsailor Boo says: Woohoo!
sonic1 says: glad we all established that keane are crap
SSimay says: Nice!
Kleines says: James, you recently joined Twitter - do you enjoy using it? Do you follow many people on there?
miguelhayes says: yes we do
Emmi says: I don't understand Twitter at all
SSimay says: i joined there for James
SSimay says:
theano says: Same here about twitter
apollinaris says: James, are you influenced by other artists? if yes, any examples?
James Walsh says: I like using twitter. Its easier than having to think of long interesting entries for myspace and the website
miguelhayes says: when they were out they were known as a copy of Coldplay and Starsailor, now James confirms it
miguelhayes says: is this your first chating experience James?
gorgeousuk says: I love twitter - it's a laugh and it annoys mr g uk, which is always great
mandie says: i think we all joined for the same reason ;-)
SSimay says:
Emmi says: hehe
Herculean says: http://twitter.com/Herculeanblog
** at 16:12, gazzad joined the Lobby...  
theano says: I didn't join twitter, I just read
Starsailor Boo says: Typically, I deleted my Twitter the day before!
sonic1 says: Where are you right now?
** at 16:13, gazzad left the Lobby...  
James Walsh says: I have to say I have nothing against Keane but I think there are too many people who think we are somehow influenced by them.
Emmi says: why do you do so much of the promotion on your own, James?
** at 16:13, gazzad joined the Lobby...  
gorgeousuk says: yes that must be irritating
dodovox says: not us !
mandie says: you are nothing like Keane,thankfully
A.M.P. Japan says: Are you looking forward to the Ritz gig in Manchester? With it's great bouncy dance floor!
Starsailor Boo says: You're better than Keane by any criteria you want to judge.
apollinaris says: fine, but apart from Keane - anybody else?
SSimay says: you're better then Keane
** at 16:13, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
** at 16:14, StarsailorRock joined the Lobby...  
miguelhayes says: much better hehe
dodovox says: Who designed the album and single covers ? They're great !
goodsoulgirl says: looking forward to tomorrow night....
sonic1 says: this bloody thing keeps kicking me out!!!
theano says: Any festival already confirmed?
James Walsh says: I do all the promotion because the rest of them are lazy! Also I write all the lyrics so any songs about song meanings and intentions are hard for Ben etc to answer
gorgeousuk says: I think the art work is outstanding
SSimay says:
Emmi says: Joe Hollick designed the artwork, I think
James Walsh says: I'm glad you like the artwork
Starsailor Boo says: I was going to ask if Ben had gone part time
sonic1 says: Ben is cool.
mandie says: Is ben sunning himself in Spain?
gorgeousuk says: more like has barry gone part time lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sonic1 says: I wouldnt stand for that james, get em told
miguelhayes says: once again, the lyrics are one of best found in an album nowadays, where's your inspiration coming from James? personal experience, family, friends, wishes...
Emmi says: Stel's pretty cool in interviews, you should kick his but and get him to you out
dodovox says: so what's the story of the boy in waiting ?
Starsailor Boo says: Ah, you leave the lovely ginger one alone - I think we need more Barry in interviews
mandie says: Stel has a wicked sense of humour
SSimay says: do you take your wife's thoughts when you're writing song or your daughter
Starsailor Boo says: Keane don't have freckles
sonic1 says: awww you have freckles !!
Emmi says: good point, Boo
gorgeousuk says: and Toms a chubber
gazzad says: So when is the new album going to be out in the US? or is there anywhere I can download it from.
Emmi says: that's definitely a minus 10 points for Keane
James Walsh says: All of Starsailor have their roles to play. Ben is brilliant with meeting fans,record company etc and keeping them entertained. Stel gets on well with other ds and Barry is down to earth and relates to people well
gorgeousuk says: very diplomatic answer James
sonic1 says: a great team
miguelhayes says: that's interesting...
mandie says: you're all great with us fans
sonic1 says: haha yeah
SSimay says: yeah, that's true
Starsailor Boo says: he speaks the truth, they're all lovely
SSimay says: youre all good souls
gorgeousuk says: You guys are great I've never come across a d who give so much time to fans
Emmi says: promise me that next time in the NLs you'll come out for a chat, all of you, even Barry! (I still need his sig on OTO)
miguelhayes says: yes, you were very sweet with audience in Valencia despite you knew that most of people were going for Franz Ferdinand, i really enjoyed your performance!
dodovox says: who'll be doing the support guitar for the next tour ?
SSimay says: i wanna enjoy your permance too come to Turkey!!
miguelhayes says: ME! dodovox
dodovox says: will you tour with Rich again ?
DarkDigi says: Do you guys sometimes do meet and greet sort of things with the fans after or before gigs?
James Walsh says: Its frustrating for us at the moment as far as the US is concerned. There are a number of people interested in releasing the album but we can't do it because of 'record company politics'. Hopefully we can get it resolved soon and get the album out
gorgeousuk says: I'm backing singer aren't I James!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pleeeeaaase - let me get out of teaching!
mandie says: will Rich Warren be playing live with you again soon?
Starsailor Boo says: Pete Greenwood will be paying guitar with the boys
James Walsh says: gorgeusuk I have not heard you sing
theano says: paying
Herculean says: Was just wondering whats been the worst thing about making it as a d? and have you ever split up (obv reformed tho)?
theano says: lol
gorgeousuk says: make sure he learns his chords
gorgeousuk says: I'm a fab singer
gazzad says: when you come to the US make sure you come to Philly. Crowd loves you guys there.
SSimay says: im fab, too
James Walsh says: We have been through our ups and downs but we have never thought of splitting up.
sonic1 says: what happens when you fall out and have to go on stage? or do you ever fall out?
Emmi says: I tried to learn bass from Stel (from that website), but he's such damn good bass player! I can't do it
miguelhayes says: James, what's the best of being in a d?
Herculean says: I'm now following you on twitte James ;D
Emmi says: making music? :p
Herculean says: *twitter
gorgeousuk says: I love havin a twitter with James it's great.
SSimay says: why The Black limousine isnt in the album that song is great!
James Walsh says: The best thing about being in a d is getting to see the world for free!
** at 16:20, arlies joined the Lobby...  
SSimay says:
sonic1 says: Do you all socialise together or have you all had enuf of each other after tours ect?
miguelhayes says: haha!
** at 16:21, dodovox joined the Lobby...  
mandie says: yes, i was wondering about Black limousine too
Emmi says: I hear things about ipod fights in the tourbus
theano says: The world for free, cool indeed!
miguelhayes says: that's one of things for me it could be great but you're the first who says so finally!
Emmi says: and dirty jeans
James Walsh says: Black Limousine has a different sound to the rest of the album. Plus I think the 11 we put on are better.
** at 16:21, gigwise joined the Lobby...  
gorgeousuk says: Are you still friends with Brandon ???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SSimay says: yeah, 11 rule of you
Herculean says: My fav at the moment is 'Neon Sky'
dodovox says: my fave too !
A.M.P. Japan says: Where's you'r favourite place to tour?
Emmi says: uhu
theano says: France lol?
James Walsh says: I think I am still friends with Brandon. I've not spoke to him for a while to be honest.
sonic1 says: what can we expect on thursday? a mixture?
Herculean says: How long usually does it take you to write a song? And was just wondering what came first, 'Listen Up' album version or 'Listen Up' (alternative acoustic on bonus CD)?
James Walsh says: On thursday there will be a bit of everything.New,Old and covers
apollinaris says: James, your last record sounds more moderate and mature, if you could say so. do you feel the same?
James Walsh says: Listen up bonus version came first
Herculean says: ah klkl
sonic1 says: Yeesss cant wait. have you played there before?
James Walsh says: I think our album sounds more mature yes
apollinaris says:
Herculean says: agree
miguelhayes says: James, on the upcoming european tour, to wich old album will you give more preference in live?
apollinaris says:
goodsoulgirl says: can't wait for thursday...
James Walsh says: I've never played the deaf institute before. Looking forward to it
Emmi says: Are audiences from different countries different?
gorgeousuk says: All the gigs in north london I've trekked to - whats wrong wiv souf london anyway?????? gord blimey!!!!
gazzad says: James, what gear are you currently using. Amps, guitars etc
sonic1 says: Northerners rule
James Walsh says: Love is Here and All The Plans are the best so I/we tend to play more form those two albums
dodovox says: cool !
James Walsh says: Gibson/Marshall
Starsailor Boo says: It says that I'm idle. I resent that.
DarkDigi says:
Emmi says: awwwwwww
SSimay says: gibson is my dream guitar
miguelhayes says: aha!
Emmi says: we know you work hard, Boo
SSimay says: yeah
Starsailor Boo says: Thank you Emmi.
miguelhayes says: oldest and newest, sounds promising!
gorgeousuk says: I love ben's glittery drum kit - I've threatened to steal it on a number of occasions
James Walsh says: How are you going to steal a drum kit?
Starsailor Boo says: He has a matching glittery thong too.
sonic1 says: we will gang up
Emmi says: Boo!
mandie says: we have large handbags
SSimay says: :D
theano says: lol
sonic1 says: BOO! do you james !! haha
gorgeousuk says: Us south londoners have ways!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Emmi says:
apollinaris says: James, it's toooooooooo early to ask this but still: do you have any ideas about next record?
gorgeousuk says: hire a lorry.

** Please note: Some chat room features may be disabled for guests. Comments will not appear in the Lounge until they are approved....  
gorgeousuk says: glittery thong - scary
Emmi says: no thanks
miguelhayes says: James, what do you think about the Internet royalties, do you think artist should get more money from digital sales as some artist in UK are asking for?
James Walsh says: Its a bit early to start thinkging about the next record but I am always writing songs. Its enjoyable to write sometimes without having to think about putting the songs on an album
SSimay says: listenin Neon Sky right now... what a great one! whats that story?
** at 16:27, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
dodovox says: have you been asked to support U2 this summer ?
Herculean says: James, I remember you saying in an interview that you're a U2 fan. Was just wondering what you make of 'No Line...?
** at 16:28, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
dodovox says: all the plans is better !
gorgeousuk says: I was very frustrated that you supported james blunt - should have been the other way round for sure
SSimay says: u2 must be support d of Starsailor!
SSimay says:
dodovox says: sure !
DarkDigi says: =)
James Walsh says: I think artists should be entitled to a reasonable amount from digital sales. Its more important for young up an coming artists though. It sticks in the throat when big rich mega stars start asking for even more money!
sonic1 says: James, pretty please play restless heart for me on Thursday - Its my favourite and ive never heard it live before! (dedicated to Sonia)?!!!
theano says: U2 are 'has been'


James Walsh says: We' love to support u2
** at 16:29, StarsailorRock joined the Lobby...  
miguelhayes says: meaning Eminem?
James Walsh says: I might play 'restless heart' I've not done it for a while
Emmi says: do you still remember how to play it?
sonic1 says: THANKS !! (for sonia - dont forget!)
dodovox says: great ! love this one
Emmi says: or will you have to look it up?
DarkDigi says: i hope you guys play Four to the Floor at bristol i really love that song
James Walsh says: I will practice 'restless heart'
miguelhayes says: one of sweetest songs of Starsailor
Herculean says: James, have you heard 'No Line On the Horizon'?
SSimay says: yeah
miguelhayes says: (restless heart)
Emmi says:
gorgeousuk says: would you sing telling them - that song is just beautiful.
James Walsh says: I/We ALWAYS play four to the floor,silence is easy and good souls
DarkDigi says:
Emmi says: you ought to
SSimay says: yeah, these are the greatest ones
theano says:
James Walsh says: There would be a riot if we didn't!
gorgeousuk says: I have learnt to play tell me it's not over on the guitar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SSimay says: me too
James Walsh says: Well done!
Emmi says: my mum has already signed up for the Dutch gig, even if it's on a work day :p
miguelhayes says: hehehe
SSimay says: its great to play it
gorgeousuk says: when I say play that may be a bit of an exaggeration
Emmi says:
Herculean says: Are Starsailor friends with Cherry Ghost?
James Walsh says: Just keep practicing
Emmi says: o dear, that smilie....
sonic1 says: oh no i need a wee. Tie up my hands..or is that pushing it for thursday
James Walsh says: Cherry Ghost is brilliant! What happened to him?
miguelhayes says: yeah Emmi my mom is a Starsailor fan too :D
Herculean says: and if so, have you heard any songs from their second album? (Simon Aldred is a genious)
SSimay says: that's a electro g song
Herculean says: Their making a new album
Starsailor Boo says: I was really glad that I finally got to hear She Just Wept after all these years. Restless Heart would be lovely acoustically.
Emmi says: hurray for the cool mums
Herculean says: I think their a d now
gorgeousuk says: you just have to wait for me to find the chords - the song is much slower when I play it - but its effective !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Herculean says: (as apposed to one man trubadour)
miguelhayes says: James, i'm a Real Madrid supporter, could you play 'restless heart' for me today? -_-
SSimay says:
apollinaris says: James, do you enjoy this chat?
SSimay says: oh by the way cognrats to Liverpool
gorgeousuk says: Me and Immie have a great game - fill in the Brandon vocals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! great fun, especailly with a drink or two
theano says: Congrats Liverpool and Chelsea
James Walsh says: When I saw Cherry Ghost it was a full d. Great gig in Manchester. I guess Simon is writing the next album now
A.M.P. Japan says: And Arsenal! for later!
Herculean says: Simon Aldred's a genious can't wait for the new one
James Walsh says: Its great to have something to shout about being a Liverpool
gorgeousuk says: By the way Imogen thought you were better than Chas and Dave - are you delighted?
SSimay says: i think so it was a great match
James Walsh says: I think Arsenal will win. I'm not as anti-man u as you might think but I really hope they don't win everything!
miguelhayes says: well, I have to leave to class, it's been very nice James, i wish i could stay longer because is going really great!!
James Walsh says: See you Miguel
gorgeousuk says: Oh - not football!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Starsailor Boo says: Good Miguel, thanks for dropping in.

SSimay says: i'll get mine in this weekend
goodsoulgirl says: hear hear....
SSimay says: :D
sonic1 says: James, do you ever get a big head or are you grounded!
Emmi says: It's so odd I already heard a number of songs off the new album back in 2006 in the Hague!
Starsailor Boo says: Indeed, we did. We always had faith and it has been well worth the wait, we're very proud of you all.
Emmi says: I guess you've playing them for a long while already
James Walsh says: I am ambitous but not big headed. You should always look forward and strife to be better
James Walsh says: I meant strive!
apollinaris says: ))
SSimay says:
sonic1 says: good answer
gorgeousuk says: Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Emmi says: or ws that 2007
goodsoulgirl says:
Herculean says: I was just wondering James, (I kno you can't really say) but how many singles shall their be of this album (cus in my opinion there's 11 singles on the album) and will there be another live DVD?
Emmi says: yes, 2007
SSimay says: yeah , we want a DVD
dodovox says: oh yes another DVD ?
SSimay says: or a tour diary
Emmi says: for us foreigners?
SSimay says:
Herculean says: you shukd do podcasts
sonic1 says: are you fingers hurting yet? i think the guys should log in next time - this has been great fun
dodovox says:
Emmi says: he can't do everything!
SSimay says: yeah
Starsailor Boo says: I'm sure we'll sort something with a tour diary on the site
SSimay says: nice
theano says: Cool!
James Walsh says: I can confirm there will not be 11 singles from this album. I'd love to do another dvd. Its been too long. Unfortunately music dvds dont sell like they used to so it may not be cost effective to do. That wouldnt stop us but it might stop the record
James Walsh says: company
Emmi says: Hand Barry a camera and let him record whatever he feels worth recording of the tour, and then putting it up on the website
Herculean says:
SSimay says: yeah,that's good


sonic1 says: Whats it like living down south? do you miss manchester?
Herculean says: tell the record company they shall have Starsailot fans to answer to
Starsailor Boo says: 11 singles! Even if you could cope James, I'm an old lady and 11 would finish me off.
** at 16:41, Herculean joined the Lobby...  
James Walsh says: With the absence of official videos on youtube fan made stuff is going to be very important
Emmi says: nonsense, Boo, you're still a young lady
SSimay says: my
SSimay says: mamma
SSimay says: jsut
SSimay says: came
Starsailor Boo says: The face looking back from the mirror says otherwise!
SSimay says: and say you hello
A.M.P. Japan says: Any chance of an interview for the BIG ISSUE Japan when you next tour here?
SSimay says: she loves you too much
James Walsh says: I am fine with anybody filming at our gigs as long as its not they used commercially. If anybody stops you its venue policy not us
theano says: I prefer to say 'less young' rather than 'old'
Emmi says: that's just you wearing the wrong glasses, Boo
James Walsh says: I'd love to do 'big issue' japan
Emmi says: that's great to know, James I'll remember it
Starsailor Boo says: That's entirely possible, I have so many pairs I get muddled sometimes
Emmi says: there you go
theano says: Never had problems in UK with my camera, just in Paris.
** at 16:43, Kleines joined the Lobby...  
Herculean says: James whats been the Sarsailor video thats been the most fun to make?
apollinaris says: James Walsh, have any hoobies of yours?
SSimay says: nice question
A.M.P. Japan says: Cool, can I contact your press manager if I see you are playing here?

Herculean says:

DarkDigi says:
** at 16:44, goodsoulgirl joined the Lobby...  
SSimay says: it was the most creative one
Guest_62965 says:
Starsailor Boo says: Mr Boo said the other night that was his favourite
** at 16:44, StarsailorRock joined the Lobby...  
Herculean says: wait, there are two to Four To The Floor, but I suspect you meant the 'hoodie' version
Emmi says: Who comes up with the concepts for the video clips?
James Walsh says: We collaborate with various video directors.
Emmi says: nice
dodovox says: are you enjoying "acting" ?
Emmi says: Any chance of you guys doing any more of those tutorial videos?
apollinaris says: James, you were to Moscow - what you think about Russian fans?
SSimay says: i think you cope it great
James Walsh says: I wish I could act!
SSimay says: you can
sonic1 says: acting?! (sorry)
James Walsh says: Moscow is great! The vodka is too strong though!
SSimay says: i like the last part of the TMINO
A.M.P. Japan says: If Bowie and Adam Ant can do it so can you!
apollinaris says: oh, c'mon! =)
Herculean says: Are you a fan of 'Doves' James? (listening to Kingdom Of Rust)
James Walsh says: I could be good at acting with a bit of practice and training it would depend on the role.
Emmi says: brrrr I don't like vodka
sonic1 says: so james is there anything you would like to ask us !
SSimay says:
Emmi says: nice one, Sonic
James Walsh says: I love 'Doves'
Herculean says:
apollinaris says: James, my girlfriend asks whether you've got any tattoos?
SSimay says: how is your littlest, Cillian?
dodovox says: are you appolinaris ?
apollinaris says: pardon?
James Walsh says: Still deciding what tattoo to get
DarkDigi says: What type of Age range do you think your music gets the most attention from? [random question ]
sonic1 says: Im really shy and would never approach you at a gig - so thanks for the signed cd in the bonus pack
theano says: No age limit, I guess

sonic1 says: Don't get one!
James Walsh says: Niamh and Cillian are great Niamh is looking at the board now and Cillian is sleeping
SSimay says: sweet!
Starsailor Boo says: Don't be shy, they're pussycats
apollinaris says: hehe
Emmi says: hehe
** at 16:50, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
SSimay says: D
James Walsh says: I was joking I'd never get a tattoo
Emmi says: Is Niamh liking school?
dodovox says: phew...
theano says: I
theano says: I
sonic1 says: Good to hear it. if youve gone this long without one you dont need one.
James Walsh says: She loves school. She's good at reading and colouring. She just said she's good at everything!(no modesty there)
Starsailor Boo says: I was just trying to picture you with a tattoo and struggling
theano says: lol

apollinaris says: oh, common guys dont make me feel stupid for that tattoo question
SSimay says:
Emmi says: Ah colouring, she should keep that up, it's still fun even at 21!
DarkDigi says: Do you get alot of people approach you after Gigs if they see you?
** at 16:52, gigwise joined the Lobby...  
** at 16:52, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
SSimay says: ill be doing that if they come turkey
Emmi says: these people must have excellent d spotting tactics
Herculean says: Whats the funniest/craziest thing a fan ahs requested?
James Walsh says: There was a bloke who got a starsailor tattoo I met at an instore recently. He should send a pic to the website!
Emmi says: wow
Starsailor Boo says: She is very good at colouring, I have one of her pictures on the wall here - she did it backstage at V2004 for me and she was good then
gorgeousuk says: Little Imogen from quet records says hi!!!!!!!!!
SSimay says: yes, she's good
Starsailor Boo says: Indeed, I think we need to see that. Unless it's on his bum.
** at 16:53, dodovox joined the Lobby...  
theano says: Mainly if its on his bum
Emmi says: depends on the kind of bum he has
James Walsh says: Its not on his bum thank god! I wouldnt have liked to have seen that an an instore!
apollinaris says: hehe
sonic1 says: I know they're pussycats but i would just clam up. we met ben at moho in manchester - he's ace. I think stell was a bit drunk and J was busy with other fans.
Starsailor Boo says: I don't know how I always manage to lower the tone. Sorry.
SSimay says:
Starsailor Boo says: Phew. That's okay then.
apollinaris says: James, what comes to you first - lyrics or music?
apollinaris says: and - do you care a lot about songs' titles?
James Walsh says: chords,melody then lyrics
apollinaris says: wow
Herculean says: Whats the wierdest thing a fans ever given to you?
gorgeousuk says: Back from piano
SSimay says: really i always thought that you wrote the lyrics first
apollinaris says: frankly, i thought it was another way around
James Walsh says: I think song titles should be short and snappy
Emmi says: my dad sometimes just reads lines from a novel for lyrics, sort of Mr Kyte style
Starsailor Boo says: Presenting a tattoo might be up there
gorgeousuk says: didn't think you lot would still b talking!
sonic1 says: at Moho you said you were on a health kick - hows that going?
SSimay says: welcome back
Emmi says: Kite
James Walsh says: Nobodys told me when to stop! I think I'm meant to be on till 5

SSimay says: we like you

Herculean says: James, whats the song (you've released) that's taken the least amount of time to write (and how long did it take)

** at 16:58, sonic1 joined the Lobby...  
Starsailor Boo says: Someone asked about the midweek charts, it was no. 12, so we're hoping for a top 20 by the end of the week, so if you haven't already bought it, please do so this week.

SSimay says: in turkey it's 8th
Emmi says: I'll force my friend to buy it, she was counting on copying it from me
James Walsh says: There's some tough competition in the charts at the moment so we need people to keep buying it to make sure of a top20 position.
dodovox says: 8th ? How many did you buy SSimay ?
SSimay says:
SSimay says: people love SS in Turkey
