Editors - Heineken Open'er Festival 3rd July 2013

The thing about updating some of these old links and revisting the music is that you will invariably stumble across some moments you'd forgotten about, and how good they actually are when you experience them again later. As I write this it's been almost 7 years since Open'er Festival, and some of the songs that were aired regularly then have since moonwalked offstage into into Editors' very own "Waiting Room of Doom". They may return (like Distance or Open Your Arms do on occasion) or they may disappear forever (like Banging Heads or Find Yourself a Safe Place). You just never know. The setlist at Open'er has Bird of Prey, Nothing, Honesty and The Phone Book which all went on to adopt a much lower profile in later years. The single thread that ties them is that they were products of an extremely difficult birth, as they occupied a time in the band when they were effectively reconstructing themselves into a different entity from the wreckage of Editors 1. It meant that some of the material on the fouth Editors album that should have received more appreciation became unwillingly tied to the controversies that accompanied them, and that's something you can only get a handle on that now with time and distance from the events. All the distractions of exiting and arriving personnel meant that there was a focus shift in favour of drama rather than the substance of the art on offer. These are good songs, you just have to break the context and situations they were anchored to in order to hear it. I always enjoy listening to The Phone Book because there's this really soft air of quiet resignation abut it. I wonder how much it was shaped by the events prior to TWOYL being recorded or whether those lyrics and sentiments were already intact at the time of recording? I have no idea when The Phone Book was actually written. I do have a recording statement from Russell issued in 2011, where he actually names the working titles of 3 songs they were working on at the time that ended up on Editors' 4th album. They were Sugar, The Weight of Your Love (later shortened to The Weight) and Formaldehyde and they wouldn't be released for another 2 years. Russell's words also arrived while Mr Urbanowicz was still an Editor and so it's entirely possible that The Phone Book was written then or even sometime prior to that. Oh, the ambiguity. Enjoy the music ;) The Setlist Sugar 0:00 A Ton of Love 4:37 Smokers 8:55 Munich 14:09 Bones 18:18 An End Has a Start 23:19 Bird of Prey 27:17 Formaldehyde 32:19 Two Hearted Spider 36:21 Bullets 41:02 The Racing Rats 44:19 The Phone Book 48:53 In This Light and on This Evening 53:41 Eat Raw Meat = Blood Drool 58:00 Nothing 1:02:54 Honesty 1:06:48 Papillon 1:13:32 For more Editors stuff, drop by the Archive https://lemmingarchive.blogspot.com/2... brought to you with lots and lots of lemming-love ) x
