WOOHOO!! According to MP on Facebook, they're gonna record a DVD/Blu-ray of the Tilburg show on Thursday! And I and Elite are going to be there  :biggrin:

Cool!  :eek
Tilburg must be a favourite place for prog bands to record stuff! Let's see if we can make it onto the DVD as well  :biggrin:

Nevermind, this was a reaction to Scorp's post, which is in the wrong topic.

Tonight was awesome. Beardfish was very, very good and Flying Colors was as well.
Also included a DTF meetup of me and Onno. Good times, nice concert, a fine evening.

Hmm, I just found out we missed the second encore. We left straight after Infinite Fire, because of trains to catch. Apparently the band played a cover of Deep Purple's Space Truckin' as the final encore. I guess I'll see it on the dvd.

Nice! That'll be a fun extra for the DVD! Can't wait for it's release! How was the crowd, excited? I'm sure it was a great show and that the future release of it will be amazing! :tup

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Yup. I haven't really gotten into the new EP yet, but New Morning is a *fantastic* album.

Saw them on Friday night and they were very good, but not awesome by any means. There's something about this band, five great musicians, and on paper they should be fantastic, but they're somehow less than the sum of their parts.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I went to see them, and they were very good, as I said, but...

Oh man, we didn't get that in London! :(

It was a really great gig though, the band play so nicely together considering how little time they've spent together. No Deep Purple cover for us though.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.

Last month in Neal's Inner Circle Newsletter, Neal said this:

Quote
New Flying Colors Album!   
(Since I'm starting all of these little bits of information with a yes, I think I'll start this one with something different....)
  NO.... we don't have any solid plans to be recording a new Flying Colors album, but it is being discussed. I thought you'd be happy to know that we were talking about it. The record company seems to be keen so we're just all waiting for everyone's schedule to permit the band gathering together again to make another amazing record. By the way, how did you like my Flying Colors mixes last month? I guess I'll have to go on the Inner Circle Message Board to see if anyone has commented. So... comment, let me know what you think about it and I'll check it out and perhaps I'll even comment back...OMG! 


And just today, he tweeted:

I absolutely love FC1, I think it was one of the best releases of 2012. But I have to be honest, I don't see a sequel to be good. Can't put my finger on it why though.

And if they're writing on the web, and not in the studio, I can only assume they're going to work out songs first, then get together later on, so hopefully the material have the added benefit of having some time to cook before they pull it out of the oven. Neal and Mike typically flash-fry their songs, but I hope with the conference call writing produces some more polished material by studio time!
