He was the opening act at the Tori Amos show I went to on Friday and was AMAZING. He was way better than Tori, I must say. I was not impressed with her performance, but he was great. He played 6 songs with no band whatsoever, just him and his guitar. I bought his CD after and it's great.
His single is called Ghost which is a great song, or also if you wanna check out the song Morning After & Sorry So Sorry are all ace songs.

Has anyone heard of him?

I'll check him out Sarah...but you didn't like Tori's performance??? I heard that she didn't talk to the crowd at all and it was just two hours of playing...i'm torn on whether or not that is a good thing or a bad thing....if it was a coldplay concert..i would want chris to have his little jokes... :roll: :lol:

Laura next time I see you on MSN remind me to tell you about the concert. She didn't talk much, I think she did once and we couldn't understand what she was saying. The sound is absolute SHITE at the ACC.

ah i hate when the sound is no good....and you would think that after a while and doing so many tours they would always have the sound done right...

I don't think it's the artists fault, I think it's the venue. I had been to four shows there recently, two were on the lower level and two were on the upper. The two on the lower had much better sound than the upper so I am thinking that it's just a matter of where I was sitting. Nevertheless they should have good sound throughout the venue!

Nope, first I heard of him was when they e-mailed me asking to promote them on the site. That was probably after this thread started but I didn't see it :roll:

Anyway to get to the point I've just received that CD today and I'm on my first listen right now and I've got to say it decent stuff, I know it'll grow on me 8)

Good, it will grow on you. My favourite songs are track 9 which is a live track called Morning After and I like track 1 which is Sorry So Sorry. YAY I'm happy you like it!

Also try and download some live stuff, I downloaded a cover he did of Karma Police and I liked it, although I was reading somewhere where many people didn't like it but everyone has their own opinion.

The Howie Day message board has this trading thing. I had never heard of it beforehand but apparently it's quite popular among other bands. You probably know about it where people send copies of live performances to other fans. It's a really great thing. You should check it out. I was gonna do it but didn't want to put in the effort.

there's no effort!! it's soo easy! all you have to do i post in the newbie's forum and mentor's will take care of you there... i've got lots of his live show's to trade :)

i agree kristina is a beautiful track on "australia" !!! and i don't know if i've heard of people not liking howie's cover of karma police, i think he rocks that song out live!!

anyway, i wish coldplay show's were taped and traded more often! i have one live coldplay show the kentish town forum (radio 1 thing) what ever it was called, it's such a good show though.... but it would be so great if they had more taper's and trader's i think it would make the fan community closer, howie's boards were founded on the purpose of taping trading and spreading live music we're a friendly close community, but we LOVE new people hey we've got a whole forum for you guys to get started on that stuff!
