Oooh, nice! I like how the background is wood panels too. It gives it a homey feel.

Oh yeah, I got let in for soundcheck too and she tried to play HAWBTW but she said she didn't practice it enough to feel good about playing it. I am so glad I went. :)

I am so glad you were able to get in! Did you happen to get video of her practicing HAWBTW during the soundcheck? I love to hear her practice, with mistakes and all, especially that song :)

And I don't know who Mark is either......

Wow! Thanks for all the great videos and pictures! Can someone please upload the audio to megaupload or something, if it's not too much trouble? Thanks.

Yay! I'm glad you guys all had a good time. Thanks for gathering footage for all of us. :) I can't wait to hear another recording of Tall Tales for Spring. I hope she didn't change it that much or at all like she did some other songs. AND I'M SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT SKYE STEELE WAS PERFORMING WITH HER AGAIN!!! :D

I am so relieved to read that she's going to be touring this summer. We hadn't heard anything, so I was afraid I would never get to see her live ever. I have to go to a concert if it's in the LA area.

When you guys listen to V's entire albums, do you get a sense that they were written to be listened to during a certain season? For example, I like to listen to Harmonium in the late summer/early fall. Maybe it's because of the lyrics "well summer's all in bloom/summer's ending soon" in White Houses and "just when the days start getting colder" in Afterglow and Half a Week Before the Winter.

Heroes & Thieves is a late winter/early spring album for me. It gives me a triumphant feeling, like we made it through winter, and now we're enjoying spring.

I am divided on Be Not Nobody, though, just because I haven't listened to that one all the way through enough. The brighter songs remind me of spring, but the darker ones remind me of late fall/early winter.

And from what we've heard from Rabbits on the Run, I think it will have a very Harmonium feel to it, but maybe more summery.

I love how V is so in tune with with the seasons and how she likes to reference nature in her songs!

I saw one hopping down my street yesterday too! Yay for rabbits!

YAY!!! But June 21st is the first day of summer.... Oh, well, at least I have something to look forward to. I never saw Vanessa's tweet either. I just saw @VCarltonNET 's tweet and I started freaking out here. GAH!!! I'm so excited.  ::) :) ;D :D My sister had to throw water on me to calm me down.

I like.  ;D

I'm already in love with it! Do you think it's "Hear the Bells"?

Yeah, i thought the same, hear the bells fits :D

boots on concrete...

The line Boots on concrete sounds more fitting to me in the song The Marching Line.

And the instrumental being mixed by the end of the video just sounds like this:

True, the marching line one scape my eyes : )

Does anyone get any more lyrics?

I'm totally thinking The Marching Line after the "boots on concrete" line. GAHHHH, I CAN'T WAIT TO BUY RABBITS ON THE RUN AND HEAR ALL THESE MYSTERIOUS NEW SONGS!!!

Have you guys noticed that Vanessa's singing sounds a bit different recently? In a good way! Like, it sounds gentler, like on the high notes, I don't know, it's like powerful but vulnerable at the same time. To explain it better, like when she performed A Thousand Miles at the Sunset Sessions compared to when she's sang it in the past, it sounds more tranquil or something. What do you guys think?
