On TV with Franz, again!

Franz Ferdinand is all about getting me on television. ;) Last night marked the second time I've gone to be a part of a Franz Ferdinand televised appearance. I've only ever been on television in connection with one other artist, who will go unmentioned right now...:). Could it be that Franz is really good about letting their fans know about these things, or that they do more things with their fans? For such a popular band they certainly seem to be some of the most accessible, friendly musicians I've ever seen. And oh yeah, they rock too. :) My experience being a Franz Ferdinand fan has been sort of backward, I admit. I liked some of their songs but it took me quite awhile to really get into them. Then one day last summer, they had an open call for fans to be in a video they were shooting, and I just happened to have the day off. So I spent the day on a set watching them film and just generally wander around and talk to fans. I think I may be a bigger fan of Alex, Nick, Bob, and Paul than I am of Franz Ferdinand. I guess that makes me little but a shallow rock-n-roll groupie, but I can live with that. ( Read more... )

Shosh and I left to get food after the show (which got out at about 8:30, good time) and didn't wait for the band, and I must say it was kind of a relief to not feel we needed to. See, I'm not really a groupie, not all the time...:b
