FWIWIMHO

ATLiens = Aquemini > Southernplayalistic > Stankonia >>> Speakerboxxx/Love Below

There are no other OutKast records.

I do love it, but the sheer number of shit skits always puts me off listening to it. (I’m apparently too lazy to delete the MP3s.)

One of the great things about the reunion is that full length live sets exist now which they never did before. Coachella night 1 was a mess but actually the rest of the tour was amazing

#22

Still not over the fact that the only UK date was in support for Bruno Mars, will go to my grave angry about it

#23

Absolute tragedy, that. In the end I went to see them at North Sea Jazz in Rotterdam. It was relatively intimate for them and as a result they didn’t play with the live band, just turntables and mics, but it was still my favourite hip hop set ever. Completely biased though, aren’t I

Sorry m7 :cry:. Genuinely feel for you, I’d have been cut up to have missed it (and also wasn’t going to the fucking Bruno Mars show, even though I should have just done it)

The thing that will always stick in my mind about Idlewild is this Guardian review:

The words don’t match the score.

#27

Yeah, same for me I reckon.

I don’t think I’ve sat through Speakerboxxx/The Love Below more than a few times though to be fair. Just so bloated.

My sister’s boyfriend told me over Xmas that he was at their Astoria show in 2001 and I very nearly caused a scene

I was at that! 99% sure it was at Brixton Academy though…

I’m extremely mad at you as well (although not as mad as if it had been the Astoria)

#32

I recently got into Idlewild. It’s ok, but there are some brilliant highlights.

#33

Both shite

I don’t agree with this post but I appreciate your input nonetheless.
