This ad looks surprisingly modern but I'm guessing it's at least 10 possibly 15 years old...

i can't find the link for the ad anywhere...grr...
did ya ever hear bout glen hansard kicking the steps mic fell on so hard that he injured himself?
mic's niece or somebody like that told him to kick the steps next time he saw them and glen got a little pissed and really went for it....
possibility it's just another story told by fans though...

It sounds like a Glen thing to do. He's a wee legend himself like! A living one though i guess.

I met him after a gig in February and he was just lovely- feckin good gig as well! First time i'd seen them in about 4 years or something. But they were amazin! The Cost is turning into my favourite Frames album. Slowly but surely...

Gabriel Rios- Broadday light
was used in an add for orange juice. Couldn't find the add on you tube. But did find the song: it's a good one for the early morning, gets your (orange) juices flowing.
Enjoy

This one from 1996 really got me into Blur.
