Language: Title: Young Idealists at work Thanks to Maren and her daughter Lily in Berlin, and Christophe (who took the train from Hanover) in Oldenburg last night, we've sold and signed a whole lot of CDs and the process was most enjoyable (even if I was exhausted after the shows). Thanks again! Posted by: Lloyd @ 18/04/2009 Language: Title: More YIs at work Many, many CDs sold. Thanks to Tim in Munster and Christiane in Cologne! Posted by: Lloyd @ 20/04/2009 Language: Title: Fathers, Sons, Idealists & Idols Hi Lloyd, you're welcome -- I was glad to be able to help you. Funny footnote: I told my father (for whom I bought "Rattlesnakes" xmas 1984) on the phone about the Young Idealists and how it came to be that I helped out at the concert and talked to you. He seemed mildly interested and happy for me. However, he really perked up when I mentioned Kris Kristofferson and that you covered one of his songs. "Wow, what a coincidence," he said. "I've been going through a Kris Kistofferson phase this very week, listening to his albums! Such great songs!" I guess it goes to show that you can only impress your father by meeting *his* idols, not yours. Keep that in mind when your son tells you his Julian Casablancas story in about 10 or 20 years ... Good luck for the rest of your tour! Tim. Posted by: Tim @ 21/04/2009 Language: Title: Andreas in Zurich Thanks so much to Andreas in Zurich! We are now sold out of COTA box sets! Posted by: Lloyd @ 24/04/2009 Language: Title: The YoungIdealist Met our fabulous MapMeister Martin in Cambridge last night along with the long supportive Harry Beer. Sold many CDs again! Posted by: Lloyd @ 29/04/2009 Language: Title: Winchester Thanks to Emma and Ryan in Winchester. Posted by: Lloyd @ 30/04/2009 Language: Title: Black Box Thanks for Graham and Kevin (with help from Barry - much needed in the dark!) in Belfast last night. Posted by: Lloyd @ 02/05/2009 Language: Title: More thanks More thanks to - Andrew and Paul in Holmfirth, and Wayne in St Helens (who drove all the way from Hull!). After the Manchester show only a few CDs were left so the UK leg of the tour was very sucessful, merchandise wise, thank you to all that made this the case. Thanks John in Limerick and Graham and Barry in Galway. Just Whelan's left and Graham is on duty both nights - be nice to him, he's a diamond bloke.

He led the way setting up a forum that seems pretty robust. The long term outlook of the forum is now the users domain. The test crew helped greatly adding suggestions and tweaking it into something that will give a voice to the Lloyd Cole community. The final stage of testing is an email out to be a part for all the Young Idealists that are on the books to test post and get it running as a forum, so check your emails. Please feel free to get topics going and feedback any problems you have there is a feedback area in the forum feel free to post. The forum will open to all members fully, shortly after all the Young Idealist testing is complete. With your help it will be a forum.

Posted by: johnc1971 @ 07/09/2010 Language: English Title: Gig/gigs in Sweden later this autumn.... Hi, posted some comments about your latest album (which I preordered about a year ago, recently found in my mailbox and will enjoy for a long time...) a few minutes ago and then realised after reading an interview given to a swedish on-line magazine (?) that you are in deed coming to Sweden, for instance to Katalin in my "hometown" Uppsala (stayed on after leaving university there...). About a year ago I volunteered as "a young idealist" and am still listed on some google map as a "local rep" in Uppsala. I would absolutely love to be of as much assistance as possible before and during the concert. Since I work in Stockholm and live in Uppsala I could probably help out in (and between?) both cities. Please let your staff or office get in touch with me if you/they are interested and hopefully I will be of some use....... Posted by: Arsenal @ 13/09/2010 Language: English Title: Not so young idealist! Lloyd, you got me through plenty of angst in the 80's. Now I'm older, but not so much wiser, you've been the inspiration for today's blog. http://pier-point1.blogspot.com/ Well, you put the muse into music after all! Glad you are still inspiring! Posted by: Chiromancer @ 19/10/2010 Language: english Title: thanks!! Hi Lloyd, Just writing to say it was great to help out last night in Exeter.

I'm trying to start my own business now. If I succeed, I'd do anything to sell your records!!! I might even not move to London to promote you in the Netherlands! Posted by: Edwin van Welie @ 11/11/2010 Language: English Title: Wellington helper? Hi Lloyd or NZ administrators, I too have been a fan since 1983!

Hope I've come to the right place, as I've lost track a little since last year when I manned the stall at Nottingham Glee Club. Fantastic evening meeting Lloyd who, as ever, was extremely generous with his time. Also enjoyed meeting so many 'old' and new enthusiasts!! Delighted to see Lloyd is returning in March 2012. My wife and I would be honoured to do the same this time, if this message could be passed on to our local Idealist rep?! Thanks Posted by: AgedIndiekid @ 12/12/2011 Language: Title: March 10th.

Please contact me -
thanks! -Martin Posted by: fuzz @ 19/06/2012 Language: English Title: Mainstream Hey Lloyd - 2 questions 1) Saw you in Manhattan with Will - AMAZING. I bought you the Diet Coke before the show. Anyway, why not play some songs from Mainsteam - "Jennifer She Said" is So good or Hey Rusty...oldies but goodies. b) why does the name Lloyd have 2 l "L"'s? Thanks Jim Posted by: jamcd99 @ 16/07/2012 Language: Welsh Title: why Lloyd has two Ls As a Celtic linguist I'll jump in on b). Because it's the English form of Welsh Llwyd 'grey'. 'll' in Welsh represents a phoneme that is not used in English but is found in a number of other languages. Here's how ll is pronounced in Welsh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h22kNL89csk Posted by: heida @ 17/07/2012 |
