Band of Horses - Compliments

Band Of Horses is out touring and once again they did a stop in Sweden for some gigs and yesterday did Ben Bridwell and Co a visit in Stockholm and for a evening at Annexet. The show was pretty good, but not the best one, i believe i have seen these guys 5 times live already, they do best in a smaller arena, like Debaser or something similar, this is to big. Even if their goal is to conquer the bigger arenas to grow bigger as all bands have. It will be interesting to see them live again this summer when they open up for Foo Fighters.

Micke Sandström has photographed them at the festival Way Out West and the "Trägår'n" in Gothenburg. Right now you have the opportunity to buy some of his photos of Band Of Horses to a really great price. Regular price for my prints at 30x40 cm 1550 SEK, and now you can find bargains for the low price of 250 SEK. He has selected his own five favorites as he lowers the price over a short period. To see more images which are the price reductions to go into here.

Here is some of them!

I'm fixing a drink in the morning
With a wavy tongue
You may have stayed too long

You're splitting apart at the seams
From the hospital call
You've known him so long

If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on

Deep in the heart of the country
Was a house I built from logs
A raven and a lady hawk

Quiet and calm through the day
See the sun burn through the fog
Approaching was a yellow dog

If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on
And what are people really for?
Does any body even care?
I'll bet you get a lot of compliments down there

If there's a God up in the air
Someone looking over everyone
At least you got something to fall back on
And do you got something to say?
Isn't something coming over you?
Do you got important things still left to do?

Todays tune "Compliments" is the first single from Band of Horses third album Infinite Arms, which was released in April 2010.
