Good news & bad news! Jónsi gave one the best performances in Leeds last night that I have heard & seen from him a long time. It was just one of those magical times when everything gels. At the end the band came out again to take a bow... which I haven't seen or heard about happening anywhere else.
Anyway, the bad news is, due an annoying technical hitch the recording is mostly un-listenable BUT this new song is :d
- At one point there was a problem with the bass & while they where sorting it out Jónsi started humming to himself. Then he just sort of spun round and played and sang this beautiful song!
I very much regret not having a recording of this concert but Im so happy to have captured this beautiful song which may never be heard again!
edit: The band has taken a bow at at least 4 shows! now I know :)

Jónsi - Lowlands Festival 20.08.2010 Re-master
By far, the very best live recording we now have of Jónsi. In terms of quality, content and delivery this particular show is just stunning and will stand as a landmark concert in years to come. Its a shorter set than usual but this works really well as the pace is much faster than usual making the concert seem more powerful.
Its a real pleasure to see how these songs have developed over the tour. With the 'Un-named New Song' Jónsi has again given another new & powerfully emotive version! Also Sticks & Stones, a relatively new addition to the line up has had any previous glitches ironed out and the way both Jónsi & the band delivers this difficult live song is breathtaking and a real credit to them as musicians. Enjoy :)
Set List:
01 Icicle Sleeves
02 Kolnidor
03 Sinking Friendships
04 'Vibraphone Song'
05 Tornado
06 Boy Lilikoi
