more importantly, i think you should stick around and get to know us all, its a small community here so its not like your gonna be bombarded with annoying questions... then again, talking about your own band on your own bands forum is kinda lame...
i love you also, send some back :)

It would be cool if he joined in more conversation when he's got a moment but then again it's pretty sweet he takes the time to post when he does - I mean he doesn't have to, but he does anyway and that's cool of him - it's an extra added bonus to go along with the music and what we have going on here as it is.
I bet he knows quite a lot about everyone judging by what is posted here... It's only fair figuring we can know a lot about them by their music as well as any interviews we read or listen to.

haha I have been shouted at so many times for obsessing over mixing while still writing and recording.
'you can get the sweetest synth sound later!'
'cant we at least finish one fucking bar?'
'jesus it sounded perfect last week, stop tweaking that damn hi-hat.'
and a million variants.

I especially love the food updates: it's like he's taking the piss out of us for the good-natured sandwich jokes over the last couple years (or he really DOES love his food; either way! X-D ).
I would never want to pry into their lives and know anymore than they would want us to, but having a personal connection with people you respect so much is gratifying. For both parties, I would imagine.

Of course it helps that the Chems write consistanly great music, it means there's little to argue over.
Long may it continue.

because jeanie and ed are now having secret relations
HAHAHA X-D
Yeah Ed , in case you didn't know yet , apperently we have a secret relationship X-D
But yeah it's wicked Ed takes the time to get involved.
As said before - He's a wicked person ( And so is Tom ) and very cool to talk to.
The fans have always been very important to them - As Ed said last NYE , he checks the board very often because it is very important for them to see what we think about their shows , their songs , their albums , everything.
Reason why i love the Chems so much is offcourse because of their music - but also because the people who make music that changed my life are easily some of the wickedest people ive met.
WHoohoo!

the only major band i know of that talk directly to their fans are mogwai, and theyre not on the same level globally as the chems! ive even gotten emails from members of mogwai about gigs etc....they rock!....but oh yeah the chems....erm....its wicked that ed and tom drop in to see us....we love them, they show us some love....LOVE IS ALL!
Erol Alkan is also really good about stopping by his forums from time to time.
I know on at least one occasion someone on the board was asking if anyone had a download link for one of Erol's radio sets and the next post was Erol offfering a direct link himself. Pretty solid guy as far as I'm concerned.
