Interview with Oyvind Svele
Jan 23, 2010 - 4:13 PM - by stargazer
Oyvind has already introduced himself to us here on Oddies. We thought it was a nice idea to set up a thread for us to interview him about his collaboration with REM at their concert in Stavanger, Norway where he shot some fabulous photographs.

So I'll start the thread off. I suppose what I want to know first is; how did the collaboration come about? I'm also curious about how much influence Michael had on the process as we know he is a photographer himself.

Merry Christmas

And happy holidays to all our readers.



Here is the Oddies tree, snapped under the influence of too many mince pies.

May Father Christmas bring you wonderful presents, or failing that, some nice socks.



Free virtual kisses under our mistletoe.



Look out for guest, who I suspect has found a new hiding place.

Happy Guy Fawkes/Oddies Birthday

Yes we were born five years ago today on the day we celebrate gunpowder treason and plot.

All the more reason to let off the rockets and set fire to things.

New Live Album
Aug 21, 2009 - 11:11 AM - by stargazer
R.E.M. LIVE AT THE OLYMPIA COMING THIS OCTOBER





October 26 is the release date of R.E.M. LIVE AT THE OLYMPIA, a two-CD set on Warner Bros Records, featuring 39 songs from the band's 2007 working rehearsals in Dublin, Ireland.
"Live At The Olympia" captures R.E.M. in uncharted territory. Over the course of their one week residency at the stately Olympia Theatre in Ireland's capital city, the band (for the first time in their storied career) tested new material in front of audiences prior to releasing the songs on record. The capacity crowds in attendance, including fan club members, friends, family, and fans from all over the globe, were party to R.E.M.'s aptly dubbed "experiment in terror." "We were just trying to do something we hadn't done before," said guitarist Peter Buck, "which meant there was no relaxing during the set. Every second we were playing something we didn't know all that well. Which was kind of good... there were all kinds of terror elements going on during that show."
The live album was produced by Dublin native Jacknife Lee who, along with R.E.M., co-produced Accelerate, the album which emerged from these shows. Most of the eleven songs on Accelerate appeared in some form or fashion at the Dublin rehearsals.
In addition to the new material, R.E.M. reached into their back catalog and played twenty-nine other songs, some of them rarely if ever performed. The lion's share of these songs came from the band's IRS years, ranging from Chronic Town to Document.
A special edition 2 CD & DVD set will contain a film of the Dublin rehearsals by Vincent Moon and Jeremiah, who previously worked with R.E.M. on Ninetynights, Six Days, and the video for Supernatural Superserious.
