Rio / sunday / 1530

apologies for the lack of photos - it's not for want of trying, but the internet is so unbearably slow i just can't get them uploaded - i have been taking many, and some might even turn out to be usable.

thoughts on preparing to leave? what a wonderful continent. i have had a really fun tour, even despite the flying (one to go!) and the illness (have totally lost my voice now - what a range of symptoms, enough to confuse drs house and wilson). it must be lupus.

anyway, the shows have been the most fun - i have loved every moment of every song, and that's pretty much because the crowds have been so brilliant. bring on the next tour. time for a rest, maybe a bit of studio time (if we are lucky) and then australia here we come. oh joy - more flying...

will upload pics if / when we make it back to the uk.

 

 

Belo Horizonte / thursday / 0250

RH: alex. artist; photographer; long-term keane collaborator. where are you right now?

AL: I'm in Brazil. I am in Tim's hotel room with you, Jesse and a [possibly slightly] drunken journalist. As. You. Do.

RH: cool. why do we have the pleasure of your company?

AL: Cos I am here to take lovely photos of your time in brazil, and if you have your way with me, as you have tonight, make me drink irresponsible amounts of alcohol on a school night.

RH: sorry about that. it's tim's fault, as usual. So what kind of glamorous evening have you had? presumably something pretty amazing?

AL: Yes of course. Y'know, the usual faces. What can I say about those that you and they haven't heard before? Oh, how we laughed... No, for me the highlight was 24 hours of travel to wind up in a Brazilian strip mall riding on Tim's back trying to joust someone off Jesse's shoulders after a wee dram or two. Erm, or something like that. Did I mention I love these guys? Oh dear. Oh dear me very much. I should be working or sleeping but I don't know where I am.

RH: on that note, i'm gonna post a couple of pics that i took on the way back, and say g'night. see you tomorrow, folks!

 

Sao Paulo / tuesday / 1925

still feel rubbish, but have had the lensbaby out (it's a weird lens that throws the focus into a strange pattern, as you will see).

also took a few pics of the skyline last night, in this crazy, busy, massive city.

oh, and thanks for the cakes - as promised, here are a couple of the pics.

colin's cake

mine

there's a guy called jason who travels everywhere with our gear, seeing it all through customs - apparently they frequently open every single flightcase, and weigh them each on entering and leaving the country. it's insane, i could never do his job. thanks jason for getting my drums to every gig!

photoshop in a knife / baseball bat / amusing object!

i love taking photos at night. here's why

cities just always look better at night. i love the little lens flare that looks like a comet, just by the top of the row of skyscrapers.

enjoy the show!

 

Buenos Aires / monday / late

still up, just sorting through some pics after a late night celebrating tom's birthday, listening to paul simon, and generally putting the world to rights. anyway, here are some pics of where we've been, and what we've been doing. went to la recoleta too, but i was shooting film, so i have to wait for those. in no particular order...

i love doorways

the graffiti here is sick

tim got a gift

style!

shapes

colour

mosaic

on the pavement

gold in argentina! thanks!

sick!

good and bad

partner in crime

legendary photographer Mick Hutson is out here shooting us. revenge is sweet!

graffiti here is up there with the best

been there...

 

Buenos Aires / sunday / 1157

just a couple of pics from last night. it was mind-blowing. more later!

passed this place on the way to the show

i think this is the best shot i've ever taken on stage

 

Buenos Aires / saturday / 1330

 

apologies. i've been ill for a few days. it doesn't make flying any more fun, that's for sure. anyway, i'm on the mend, and have been snapping away throughout, so here's an update from the last few days...

 

Bogotá, where my fantastic drum tech Scott had his birthday, complete with candles that wouldn't go out - always a good gag, that.

 

 

 

 

 

Santiago - this is how it looked when we arrived, just as the sun was setting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and finally, tom singing to the end of the earth

 

Bogotá / tuesday / 1108

this is a lovely city. we went for a wander round the old town, then up the teleferico. it was a good day!

 

Bogotá / sunday / 2355

a few pics from various places in Mexico...

 

airport / saturday / 1211

waiting for a plane (delay number 2 - i really hope i don't come to regret saying i'd count...); listening to the skeptics' guide to the universe podcast; feeling really good after last night's show - the atmosphere was utterly amazing. the crowd really really rocked (again!) - as tom says, mexico is a great place to come and play music.

i've got some more pics, but i forgot to bring the right cable to the airport, so i can't upload them - i will later.

oh, and it was a nice surprise to see some of my blog pics in Reforma - a newspaper out here... i'll be sending an invoice!

looking forward to the show tonight, and i'm happy to read that NIMW went down well. did you enjoy under pressure? i love playing that song - it really is ridiculously good.

 

Ciudad de México / friday / 1251

i went for a wander earlier, around a park by el Castillo de Chapultepec, and took a few pics. bumped into a few fans round and about too, which was cool. it's pretty surreal to be in a park in a city over 5,000 miles from home, and bump into someone wearing a keane t-shirt - if you are reading this, i hope you enjoy the show! we are so lucky to be able to come and tour here. wandering around at 10am in t-shirt weather, taking pictures. it doesn't get much better.

now listening to 808s & Heartbreak right now. say you will is an immense opener!

taxi

just three of the myriad wrestling masks you see on sale in the park

Ciudad de México / thursday / 1815

 

made it to Mexico City after a very bumpy (but not delayed!) flight.

 

i love being here - this is such a colourful country. flying in, i really began to appreciate what a massive city this is (the second largest city by population in the world - over 22 million people according to wikipedia), and you can believe it as you drive through the hectic streets, with so many people and such hectic traffic all fighting for the same piece of tarmac.

 

we loved the show last night in guadalajara - the crowd was so loud! thanks to everyone who came along, i hope you enjoyed it. makes us look forward to tomorrow and another chance to play some songs. sorry if you missed nothing in my way - maybe we should think about playing that song again! we might even have a go at something else...

arriving in Mexico City

leaving Guadalajara

CD, TMTTS

a couple more shots of last night's venue

 

guadalajara / wednesday / 1838

just a couple of pics. soundcheck is done, and we just got a ton of amazing gifts! thanks so much. oh, and it was Jay-Z!

 

wednesday / 0950

been up for about 3 ½ hours already, and got the black album on. what a record!

really looking forward to the show, and seeing some familiar faces, and hopefully some new ones too!

guadalajara / tuesday / 2200 

well, we made it to guadalajara. that was a very long day of travelling. we landed late, rushed to the next terminal, got on the plane, and i instantly felt unwell.

not a good night’s sleep, but a day in the fresh air and sunshine seems to have helped. we went for dinner at Santo Coyote where i took a few pics:

candles

rob:

cheese / mushrooms / onions - this was my dinner - it was tasty.

rob and i popped out to take a few pics before hitting the hay – not my best, but i love the roadside foodstalls here – they are much more like little restaurants than the ones you get in the uk.

airborne / monday / 1500 mexico time; 2100 uk 

we’ve been looking forward to this tour for 18 months – since we were last here. it’s a shame we couldn’t fit in more new countries, though it’s gonna be very cool going to Bogota, Colombia for the first time. my apologies for missing off accents in place names, by the way – i can’t work out how to do it. anyway, the only downside of this tour is that to get around we have 16 flights to do in three weeks. we hate flying. i wish there was a better way to get to mexico, but there isn’t. not that we have time for, anyway. so place your bets – how many of our flights will be delayed or cancelled? so far we are 1/1, having left London about two hours late. Colin (Jesse’s hero) is already in contingency-planning mode in case we miss our connection to Guadalajara. i love any place name that has 5 “a”s in it. can’t think of any others though. it’s 1504 (in Mexico) and i just took these pics on my phone:  

Canada looks cold:

this could be the worst pic i've ever put on the blog, but it's tim, and i thought you might like to see him...

the nearest town shown on the map is called Chicoutimi. i can’t be sure where it is – maybe Nova Scotia, or Quebec? one day i want to go to Godthab – it’s always on the map, somewhere in Greenland – we see it every time we fly across the atlantic. i wonder what it’s like. anyway, we are on our way to Mexico. hello Canadians! hello Maher Arar. our ground speed is 563 mph and we have exactly 2600 miles to go (four and a half hours).

i started writing what i’d been doing on the flight, but it is basically a list of time-using things, and it’ll probably sound very boring. but that’s flying for you... 

took off! slept, approx 1 hour. read chapters 3&4 of the great war for civilisation; the conquest of the middle east by robert fisk. it’s so depressing to read sentences that talk about the soviets in afghanistan that you hear repeated today, only with the current occupying army instead of the soviets. our so-called leaders learn nothing from history. 

listened to democracy now (www.democracynow.org/) and kcrw’s excellent left right and center www.kcrw.com/lrc. i was very saddened by the news of the death of Gerry Niewood, the famous saxophonist - we knew of him from Simon and Garfunkel's Concert in Central Park. He and bandmate, guitarist Coleman Mellett were killed in a plane crash near Buffalo, NY, a crash that took the lives of 50 people, including the peace activist Beverly Eckert  http://www.democracynow.org/2009/2/17/beverly_eckert_1951_2009_9_11 and Rwandan expert and Human Rights investigator Alison Des Forges  http://www.democracynow.org/2009/2/16/human_rights_investigator_and_rwandan_expert

caught up on some emails; watched a series of short rock climbing films called committed; then began writing this, listening to beirut – nantes is a cracking song. and in the time i’ve taken typing away we have covered a ridiculous 250 miles, at 581 mph and we are flying towards places called Timmins and Kapuskasing. now listening to Aladdin Sane.

6h 39 mins down, about 4h to go.

heathrow / gate B32 / midday

london / sunday / 1900

packing! n.b. yellow fever vaccination certificate; guide book; film!
 

one of my cats, archie, wanted to come too:

Posted by sara alves on 2010-02-26 14:22:36

Hi Tom, never forget who you are and your essence. Do not mourn with nasty comments from people who can not share the success of other bands. His voice is wonderful and you seem very sweet and humorous. Do not lose your joy for people who tell you nothing, your audience loves you. The size of people depending on the degree of involvement. You will always shine because you are talented and the owner of a voice tunned, smooth. It is a sweet and charismatic and that bothers the envious. Never forget that it is much better than those envious evil because it is generous. kisses! A person is huge for you, when you speak what you have read and lived, when treats you with love and respect when he looks into his eyes and smiles unlocked. One is a giant when you care about their life, when searching for alternatives for their growth, when you dream with you. A person is great when you forgive, when you understand, when you put in the place of others, when it acts not according to what is expected of her, but according to what he expects of herself. One disappointment may decrease the size of a love that seemed to be great. An absence may increase the size of a love that seemed to be minimal. Our trial is done not by centimeters and meters, but of actions and reactions, expectations and frustrations. A person is only to reach out and pick it unexpectedly becomes one. Is not the height or weight, or the muscles that make a great person ... It is your sensitivity, not size.

@ boardies who respond to prank posts by "ZaraBelle" ~ I'm Zara and my kid sister's name is Julia. She's not even old enough to vote. I actually don't mind any rude responses to her nonsense because she deserves the backlash. The "lobotomy" line was classic funny. Anyone that has been on this board since March of 2008 should know the difference between her comments and my comments. Julia's cheekiness is harmless and I'm sure that the km.com Mods and Keane are immune to it. My New Years resolution was to ignore her and now I'm so peaceful and happy. Karma will ruin her after all is said and done. No worries, Keane lovers. Stay sweet, foxy fans :-)

Posted by Paula Victoria on 2009-03-17 01:05:05

And one more thing I forgot to say. I asked to a woman to give my gift when she went to the soudcheck. I hope you guys received it. I gave you all my drawnings, I really hope you like it! I love you Keane, and I'm already counting the days to see you again. Nothing is better than listening to your music.

Lol!It can't be lupus Richard, it's never lupus! I didn't know you watch House! I'm laughing here! And I'm so glad you liked Brazil!I hope to see you again soon! It was the greatest day of my entire life, and I'm still hearing all of those sounds in my mind. Oh...thanks for making me the happiest person in this place. And next time you come to Sao Paulo, I want a drumstick too! I owe Keane my life and my heart, thanks!

@ Vic!-darling MOD ~ I can't moniter the use of my km.com account by my cheeky relations. It would be great if your techs could finally delete the account from km.com and block the username from future use. You should have my password on record. As per my earlier request, the Forum account was successfully deleted in December 2008 (I think, but I can't remember). I'm not sure why the km.com account has stayed open for so long after I requested for it to be deleted. I know you have made an effort to close it and I'm grateful for that. If you can't delete the account, I'm officially giving you the authorization to change the password. There is no need to inform me of the new password via email so the problem should be solved once you've complete that modification process. You are doing an extraordinarily good job. It was great knowing you. Bye, Vic, and love out loud! Support www.democracynow.org

Hey Ricjard! I'm glad that you enjoyed your time in Latin America despite your "mysterious illness" (please get well!) I'm so happy to had the chance to be in one of your shows. Thank you so much for everything! PLEASE COME BACK SOON! GREETINGS AND HUGS FROM COLOMBIA!!!

Posted by paula_ferrand on 2009-03-16 22:57:32

Guys, I'm so happy that you have fun in the part of the world I live. Today I was chatting with a friend in my work who have a show in the radio and he said that a lot of people send messages requesting your songs. I hope you can include Paraguay on your next Latin American Tour.

Posted by Maripili on 2009-03-16 22:35:13

(((RICHARD))), Thank you for the beautiful pictures of my city that you`ve done. The place is The Pinheiros River bypass, Agua Espraiada bridge. São Paulo has a lot of interesting places to make good pictures, pity that you didn't have time to discover it. I work nearly the hotel where you were.I became very sad that I didn't see you personally, and I couldn't talk a litlle with you, because I didn't had time, I had to work. It would be very nice, if it could be possible. You all seem very cool persons to be friend. If you don't mind, I've lent one of your pictures from São Paulo, to be in my albuns in the FACEBOOK. Thank you for the great show that you've made here in SÃO PAULO, althoughI barely saw you all, because I was compressed in the middle of the crowd. You must make shows here more frequently. Thanks to you (((TOM))) also for your incredible energy and affinity, and I insist that you are very blessed with your magical voice, cool guy. And finally, (((TIM))), thanks for your immense talent, sensibility and perseverance. You don't have idea of how much your music made me feel fine again. I had bad times as like Tom had too, but for other reasons. But your music renew my energies. THIS IS THE LAST TIME that I write here, beacuse it don't make sense. I doubt that you read anything of what we post here, but I really would like to know if you really read something. Whatever, a great embrace to you all, I hope I would see you again soon here in my city. Good rest after this huge gig. You must be tired!!

Posted by fiorella on 2009-03-16 22:21:23

O show de São Paulo foi ótimo, todas as músicas foram perfeitas e todos os presentes cantaram ao máximo..... Esse novo Cd é realmente perfeito como o nome mesmo diz... 3 shows no Brasil é muito pouco...deveriam ser mais!!!!! A única coisa que faltou para a noite ser completa foi a música A BAD DREAM que não foi tocada erm Sampa....mas de resto foi tudo ótimo.....

Posted by sara alves on 2009-03-16 21:53:43

I think you´re right Noelia. It isn´t our business and it doesn´t matter at all!!!! I think they all look very good but they´re also great musicains and they´re really nice people and that´s what counts!!!! Kisses from germany♥

Posted by Julia B. on 2009-03-16 21:06:50

I just read some comments and I agree many of them. It`s true, there are many more diplomatic ways to say things but... hello? wtf matters if jesse or tom have acne. It`s simply not our business.They have people who take care of them in that way. They are musicians and they look incredibly good, and the thing that really matters is their songs and who they are.And in case they had acne (thing that I didn`t notice by the way, and I take care of my skin) ... what is the problem? Does it affect their music? please, don`t be impolite girl.

Posted by Dra_House on 2009-03-16 19:17:38

Another Colombian who's really thankful for having enjoyed your show, guys. Thanks for coming, please come back soon! :-) Richard, please get better. Have a gorgeous way home, you deserve a break! We're happily waiting for your return and, in the meantime, for the success of 'Better Than This'. It's been two weeks after the show in Bogotá, and I feel so excited each time I remember it - which, by the way, I do every minute! I hope this is NOT the last time, Colombia wants more Keane! South America wants more Keane! A warm hug for all of you as well as for the Super Crew. HOORAY, KEANE!!! :-D

Oh dear… I already miss the Keane’s presence in Brazil… the gig was so incredible… Tom… was very funny when you forgot about the song “Time to go” and thought that guy wanted Keane go home… How can you think something like this? We want that you (all of you) live in Brazil forever… anyway, like you said in MTV… remember? Love and kisses forever…

@ TIM RICE-OXLEY =Lily= from Argetina............ It hurts to love you It hurts to love you, my wishes you could be here with me, you are that cloud that passes over me, like a that I look from the earth to the sky. It hurts so much that I wish that in my veins, the blood stop running. It hurts to love you, for being forbidden, for being harmful, up to the point of causing me death. It hurts not to be able to give you all this love that burns inside of me, wishing I could shed on your heart, because I love you. It hurts so much that I have no strenghts to pretend, no more. To love you is to suffer, is to drink the poison and not to die because you are the reason of why my beats. It hurts, it hurts this love that every day, it can´t be hidden any longer, my sweetie. It hurts to see your name on my computer´s screen and not be able to change your mind. It hurts to love you without reciving any blessing, this love, hurts. =Lily=

Posted by lily on 2009-03-16 13:50:15

Ahh Richard, seeing all your photographs gives me the itch to travel!!! What amazing places you get to see with your job, sorry about your illness...that is NO fun. It's nice to see Alex is back with you guys, I do emensly enjoy his work with you guys! Best wishes!!!

Posted by Aundrea on 2009-03-16 13:25:58

Hey, Golfie. Yes, you may have all colours of puppets on strings but how about the puppeteers? I agree, you can tell many things only by the user name. I just think Ms Spotless is trying to get the attention of Mr Hughes and that's all. It's a shame because most of the fans here are so sophisticated and polite.

Posted by Earl Lee Riser on 2009-03-16 13:23:40

No, no, no!!!... How unfair the life can be... I really envious the "cariocas" (RJ)… Keane… you played “Better than this”, “A Bad Dream”, “The Frog Prince” and “Early Winter” for them!!! And you didn’t for us… poor people… Come on!!! You need to come back and gig again so we’ll forgive you… all right? By the way, I dreamed that we've have extra Keane’s gigs here in Brazil… unfortunately was just a dream… I’m waiting for the pics Rich… kisses for everybody! Cheers!!!

Posted by KarlaSP on 2009-03-16 11:52:43

I'm glad you enjoyed the tour. It must have been really great. 'A bit of studio time' ? Hm...that sounds good! Thanks for the great pictures (as usual...) and, oh! I really love your cat! So sweet!!

Posted by RACHEL-RIO-BRAZIL on 2009-03-16 09:26:48

KEANE, Non vi preoccupate, l' importante è che il lavoro sta andando a gonfie vele e che vi stiate divertendo: anche in Australia vedrete che andrà tutto bene , uno dei miei colleghi , il " nordico " ,che tra l' altro fa sempre mostre ed esperimenti di tipo musicale, c'è stato di recente per concerti classici , quindi per lavoro non per turismo, però nel frattempo mentre si è in questi posti è logico che si visitino! Sapete, Giovedì quando guidava mio padre per andare a scuola, proprio lui ha indicato a tutta la comitiva un' aquila , lui ha detto: ragazzi , vedete che questo non è un falco, dalla grandezza alare si vede che è un ' aquila e poi il volo è diverso. Questa sì che è una bella esperienza! Invece ieri , mentre passeggiavo al lungomare su un tratto di scogliera scoscesa che sembra la Scozia ho sentito all' improvviso un suono di cornamusa , sono andata a curiosare e proprio lì , in alto a strapiombo sul mare c' era un originale scozzese tipicamente vestito che si stava esercitando, probabilmente usciva da uno degli alberghi della zona e per non disturbare si era messo a suonare all' aria aperta e lì trovava l' ispirazione giusta. Anche questa è stata un' esperienza incredibile e bellissima! Tom, tu hai una voce potentissima , abbraccio e bacio tutta la band, a presto dalla Catanese Sabrina!

It was about a month in LatAm, so you deserve a cool break! And I bet Dr House would give you an a positive diagnostic, it's just a matter of time... Perhaps you're homesick! Anyway, our best wishes for you, Richard, as well as for Jesse, Tim, Tom and your Super Crew. Enjoy your way home!! BTW, say 'Hello' to Archie, which has been here with us in the blog during almost a month. *LOL* And I agree with the recipe of honey and milk for getting over the trouble with your throat.

Earl Lee Riser (I flove that name, I think I know where it comes from) the US is different now. We have a new President. Mr. Obama will use diplomacy rather than the military to solve problems. Of course, if diplomacy fails, he will not be afraid to use brute force. I flove Barack, but I love Tom too.

Golfie, American way of thinking and diplomacy don't go hand in hand. I can see that and I don't expect you to understand that some things are better left unsaid. We've got the best looking guys on the British pop scene since Duran Duran and now an American "beauty" ( I'm not obviously talking about you ) will come and talk about spots. Otherwise I enjoy your comments as always.

Posted by Earl Lee Riser on 2009-03-15 23:32:07

Hi Rich! Too bad you are not able to upload pictures this time...but oh well, we're glad to hear from you... Hahah I love Dr House, and dont worry as he'd have said: IT'S NOT LUPUS! haha I wish you get even better once you land in the UK. And never forget that whole LAtin America loves you guys...dont forget to come back soon!...I'm not so sure if I can wait another two years for you to come back to Mexico... And dont forget my offer from a couple of weeks ago: Next time you're in Monterrey, Mexico give me a call and I'll show you all around... Have a safe flight back home....and rest well!!

Hello Richard!!, that have an extraordinary trip on returning to England; they left a great happiness us in your tour for Latin America.. Of my part, receive an invitation to return to Mexico the year that comes, it would be brilliant that were here in September, 2010, since in my Country it will be feasted the bicentenary of our Independence, a megaholiday is prepared, it would be pleasing to have them in these dates accompanying to celebrating, I hope that they encourage, and if your agenda allows them to him could return to Aztec land. Kisses and greetings from México!!!!.

Constantine - thanks for the concern for my sister. Are you in the "family" too?

and LMAO @ you Kerry. :P Holy mackerel. I have a wonderful visual thanks to your comment. :D Love ya, mean it! *considers plastic knockers and glow in the dark teeth... * :P

Richard: "WHEN" you return, not "IF". Don't jinx yourselves. I want to know your gorgeous selves have returned home and that I'll get to see you all in May. ;) Love yas. Have a safe trip! @Zarabelle: Image might be everything in the modelling world, but in the real world there is loads of perfect imperfection to be dazzled by. If you choose to let a little bit of acne allow you to put up a wall between yourself and someone else, you miss out on the beautiful person behind that acne. What actually really matters in the real world is having a bit of heart and soul (and love); image is just a bonus aesthetic. I hope one day you come to understand that concept. *hugs*

Constantine - what do we have in common? Do you like to play golf too?

Posted by Golf Course on 2009-03-15 21:49:43

Dear Rich. Thank you so much for taking the time and efforts to update us. Have a speeddy recovery and smooth flight home. Your pictures make me want to visit those places. Some day in the future perhaps but for now I can enjoy the ride through your eyes. ZB -was that really you? I don't think so. Take care and don't read too much.

Posted by Miss Teake on 2009-03-15 21:48:50

ZaraBelle - I agree with you. No one likes to see pictures of zits, but maybe you could have been a little more diplomatic in your comments. Then again, I don't know if there is a diplomatic way to tell someone they need to pay attention to their complexion problems.

Posted by Golf Course on 2009-03-15 21:45:57

Golf Course, my deepest sympathies as far as your sister is concerned. BTW, I have been watching you for quite some time now and I never dared to adress you before. I am drom the Netherlands and I think we both have something in common.

Posted by Constantine on 2009-03-15 21:44:02

Richard - I hope you do not have Lupus. It is a serious, deadly disease and no joking matter. I think it strikes women more often than men. My sister has it, and I'm afraid that I may lose her to it someday.

Posted by Golf Course on 2009-03-15 21:41:14

what nice you are, just for share your photos with us and by make us feel important on your time...so...you don't have luppus, you have an latinoamerica-adiccion and its only health with more latinoamerica gigs...so come back again as soon as you can...by the way...Tom has and the most gorgeous-human-face on earth an $%&&%$"" yourself zarabelle....it makes a rthyme,hahaha,, sorry buit i can't avoid it, zarabelle you $%&&&%$$.

Posted by pilibelleza on 2009-03-15 21:29:59

Omg!! you watch doctor house too? wow I follow doctor house with my friends every day, it`s amazing. Rich I hope you get better soon, really. And I also hope you have a great time in the next tours, with a fast internet conection ;) Nice to know that you liked the shows here in South America, it`s really good. Lots of love from Argentina. Have a nice day and, again, get better!

Posted by Noelia on 2009-03-15 21:28:36

RICHARD!! I think maybe you’ve got sick because you never had enjoyed so much one tour nor received so much love from your fans as you did here in Latin America and that eventually shocked you!! Mmmm... BTW, if you want you could ask House (you don't need Wilson, he's an oncologist and love doesn't cause cancer, you know?) and maybe you could appear in one episode, as a lupus-like case!! LOL... It would be great to see you in my favorite TV show!!! But, seriously, I really hope you get much better when you come back to your home and you feel the caring and loving of your lucky girlfrind and all your lucky pets :D Please, take care and don't forget all the love you received in these beautiful and hot lands :) We already miss you!! A HUGE HUG FOR YOU MY DEAR CUTE-VEGGIE-DRUMMER

Posted by Dra_House on 2009-03-15 21:28:33

Well, ZaraBelle, we are glad you brought some fun in here, there is a lot of people around who are taking all this too serious. Your name dropping at its best, again! With or without acne - this is about music, remember?

Hey Rich you really made me laugh out loud!! I am a doctor and just this friday I was talking to some friends about a really difficult case and one of them just said "If we don´t know what it is that means It´s probably Lupus" !!! Get well soon !! I really LOVED the gigs in Brasil !! Please do come back (SOON)!! I just new you would take a pic of that bridge here in São Paulo. I thought this bridge would probably look nice in a Hughes pic!! Did you guys get to go to the beach in Rio?? Love you all TTR and J !

Posted by karen rio on 2009-03-15 20:36:07

Ps the pic of Tom on the stage is very artistic plus further to my recent comment I may not be able to fit into the suitcase so I will babysit your cat as I have two of my own and a dog who all get along great so looking after your's wouldn't be a hassle xxxxxxx

Posted by KEANESPINKSTAR on 2009-03-15 20:14:56

TTRJ, please COMPLETELY ignore ZaraBell's offensive comment. i had no idea anyone could be so shallow. Bands are about music, before anything else. God forbid anyone ever posts a pic of themselves or anyone else with any sign of a blemish or imperfection on their face. Looks like it's against the law for me to show my face in public anymore......and for the record i think everyone in Keane looks great no matter what. :) love ya's

Posted by diligentwolf on 2009-03-15 20:09:09

Hi all from Keane I love the pics!!! hey if ud like some1 2 tag along with u on a trip feel very free 2 ask me I'll try n fit in ur suitcase hee hee.I love the night time pics they r beautiful if u need another photographer I'm here I'm very good at taking pictures.Look forward 2 hearing from you xxxxxxx

HELOISA, ISA FROM SAO PAULO --------- I was saying that I did not know you still were here in Brasil at that time (15:00, when Rich wrote this blog), so, I do hope you keep doing great shows in other countries as well and that I was not able to attend this PS show, but I intend to go and attend it somewhere, in another country this year, let´s see. I do hope you get well soon, Rich and GUYS, PLEASE, COME BACK SOON TO BRASIL, PEOPLE HERE LOVE YOUR WORK, YOUR MUSIC AND I´VE BEEN LISTENING GREAT THINGS ABOUT THE GIGS! PEOPLE JUST LOVED AND, TOM, YOU WERE SO CUTE SPEAKING IN PORTUGUESE! :.) LOTS OF LOVE, GUYS AND THANK YOU RICHARD FOR POSTING HERE THE LAST NEWS AND DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE PICS...

Hi, everyone! :-) @RICHARD, please make sure you come back to LatAm as soon as you can. We're going to miss Keane, but we'll keep up-to-date to follow the rest of your shows! @ZaraBelle: HOW RUDE! How come you say such a thing, in a space like this and to a band like Keane? That's superficial... Well, unless we're wrong. Anyway, thanks for sharing your perfect life. Therefore, I bet you're jailed in a glass castle where you can't see the common world, because that is our real world, where the real beauty comes from the inner-self. "Image is everything"... Wrong. I've met really good-looking people who are so dull. And, in spite of the relevance of looking after your body, it's not more important than watching over your spirit and mind. Because of this obsessive tendency about physical appearance, you've missed 90% of a fantastic photoblog. What a pity! KEANE ROCKS 100% BECAUSE THEY'RE AUTHENTIC, JUST AS THEY ARE! Cheers from Colombia! Bye!

Zarabelle - is it at ALL about the music for you? Honestly - I'm into Keane for THE MUSIC as it should be. I'm also from North America and quite honestly can tell you the success of the band on this continent has absolutely NOTHING to do with their complexion. Girl - get a grip, will ya?

ZaraBelle - Your comment is just down right ridiculous! :D Do you honestly think 99.99% (you being that 0.01%) care about how imperfect they look? Geez woman, GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF :D I wouldn't want the guys to get their faces done to the extent of Michael Jackson (no offense to Jacko fans) just to look perfect! Imperfection is what makes us human and you should know that. Anyway the guys look good as they already are so would you just stfu :D Find some other band to worship if TTRJ's imperfections bother you so much KTHXBAI.

oh! Heaven! Thanks A LOTS for this so very special and MAGIG - CONCERT in Buenos Aires. My first one! I had a big lucky to know and speak with Richard (and I took some pictures with him with my "Pentax K1000 camera". (without his glasses!) (ah! Jesse told me that he has the same camera! at the Hyatt Hotel - Crazy to know it) and I gave him the typycal sweet from my city "Mar del Plata"(= 404 Km south from Buenos Aires) : The Havanna´s Alfajores!. I love your Pics!! I love Keane!!! Thank you so much for this UNFORGETTABLE SATURDAY 7TH MARCH!!!, Rosana. queridocastor@yahoo.com.ar

Posted by queridocastor on 2009-03-15 17:15:19

ZaraBelle, thank you for sharing your pearls of wisdom. I don't know what it's like to be perfect and I'm thankful for that because perfection is nothing but boring. I hope you will never see a picture of me because you'd probably go blind. Oh and by the way - I never knew you needed eyes to enjoy a band, but clearly I've learned something new today!

Posted by ava on 2009-03-15 17:10:00

@ ZaraBelle : FOR SURE RICHARD NEXT TIME WHILE HE IS IN NEW YORK WILL GO TO MEET YOU AND TAKE A PIC OF YOUR PERFECT SKIN TO SHARE IT WITH ALL US, KEANE FANS.. YOU MUST BE BUSY LOOKING FOR LOREAL´S COMMERCIALS INSTEAD OF WATCH 10% OF RICH'S BLOG..FFS!

Posted by gabs on 2009-03-15 16:05:24

Chuffing hell if I had been on the cruelling tour this band has been on since September im sure i'd be DEAD let alone a few spots - Personally "perfection" is over rated. over whitened teeth, plastic knockers, penis extensions, hair extentions, faces tighter than Richards drumskins nah thanks I'll take something that is real surely we can all do so much Better Than This? (excuse the pun) Now who is thee best lobotomist? ;-)

Posted by naily on 2009-03-15 16:02:49

Hey, Rich. Great pictures as always. The human donkeys played by Tim and Tom just cracked me up. Was it on Tom's birthday? @funnyface We, humans cannot understand dancers like Zara Belle. Or maybe it was her sister stealing her password again? Shallow comment even for a model. The guys are perfect as they are.Cheers.

Posted by EmilyMackett on 2009-03-15 15:25:47

Zara- FFS, are you for real? I'm not being funny.... but is it the end of the world that someone has posted a photo of a man with a spot on his head? christ, if you're saying that it's wrong to show it, what kind of message does it send ... 'that noone with a tiny flaw should dare show their face in public?' Well i for one am glad that they portray themselves like this, HUMAN, like the rest of us, good for you for being perfect, but the rest of the 99.9 percent of the population are not. JQ's spots are so hawt! x

Posted by funnyface on 2009-03-15 15:08:28

ZaraBelle, your comment about the band's so-called 'flaws' is the most ridiculous, self-obsessed, rude and downright kuntish thing I've ever read in my entire life and I would suggest you get a lobotomy before daring to grace the internets again in my lifetime. Good day.

Posted by hot burrito on 2009-03-15 15:03:50

(((RICHARD))), Thank you for the beautiful pictures that you`ve done, from my city. As you are a great musician, you are a promising photographer. The place in your pics, is The Pinheiros River bypass, Agua Espraiada bridge. São Paulo has a lot of interesting places to make good pictures, pity that you didn't have time to discover it. I work near the hotel where you were been.I'm very sad because I didn't have the opportunity to see you personally, and I couldn't talk for a litlle while with you, because I didn't had the time to, I had to work. It would be very nice, if it could be possible. You all seem very cool people to be friend. If you don't mind, I've lent one of your pictures from São Paulo, to make part of my pictures albuns in the FACEBOOK. Thank you for the great show that you've made here in SÃO PAULO, although I barely saw you all, because I was compressed in the middle of the crowd. You must make shows here more frequently. Thanks to you (((TOM))) also for your incredible energy and affinity, and I insist that you are very blessed with your magical voice, cool guy. Your effort to learn some words in portughese, to tallk with the public in the show was very kind and it was a sucess. You pronounced the words very well, much better than I try to write here in english. Congratulations. If you want to learn more words I'll be glad in collaborate . And finally, (((TIM))), thanks for your immense talent, sensibility and perseverance. You don't have idea of how much your music made me feel fine again. I had bad times as like Tom had too, but for other reasons. But your music renewed my energies. THIS IS THE LAST TIME that I write here, it simple don't make sense. I feel just like a volume, cause I doubt that you read anything of what we post here, but I really would like to know if you really read something. Whatever, a great embrace to you all, I hope to see you again soon here in my city. You must be tired of this huge gig. Enjoy a lot the Rio's beaches. Unfortunately, São Paulo doesn't have beaches to make you remain more days here. It happens only when it rains a lot causing an inundation. With all my heart, I wish you all the sucess, always. You've got a real friend in São Paulo.

HUGHES! I’ve been really busy with college coursework so I only saw 10% of ur blog with the pics of JQ’s bad acne breakout on his forehead + back of his neck (+ in fan photos I’ve noticed Tom also has cystic acne breakouts in those same areas). Because I’ve been modeling since I was 17 years old (now I’m 22) I’ve always taken really good care of my skin and my modeling agent knows of some excellent NYC dermatologists that can cure those skin disorders for good. I’ve met Chris&Guy of Coldplay last year and they both had clear complexions…a band’s look is important to their success. I think that your band could really benefit from cleaning up your appearance and NOT posting pics of JQ’s acne. I really want Keane to do well when you arrive in the States and looking good can really boost your confidence levels + attract a younger fanbase. I still like you blokes despite your superficial flaws but I want everyone to see you at your best and brightest…as they say, image is everything! Best ~ Z (New York City)

Posted by ZaraBelle on 2009-03-15 13:11:42

Thanks for these new pictures Richard, you are talented indeed. I'm happy to see how much you all enjoy your touring together. Tim, I hope you won the battle, let the child in you never die!! Love, Simona

Hi Richard! I hope you'll read this although I know there is a very little chance... I've been a dedicated fan of KEANE for over 3 years now, since I first got to UK. About a month ago I went to London (I'm from Poland) only to see you guys at the O2 on the friday night (the 13th) and it was truly amazing. I don't know if you realise what influence you have on people through your music and your shows. You really changed my life, you've been there with me during my best and worst, and I just wanted to thank you for that. Keep what you're doing because it makes a difference! It sure did for me! I'd really like to meet you someday, but that just a dream I guess... Consider coming to Poland one day, I think you'll like it here :) Love, Paula PS. Great pictures! I envy that you can see so much of the world!

Is this the end of this blog? Oh, I´m a bit jealous, you´ve played "Atlantic" in Sao Paulo. If they ever are words for this song, than maybe only "pure glory"! So, have a safe flight & hoping, wishing for some new pics!

Posted by Johanna on 2009-03-14 20:29:55

I went from Brasilia to Belo Horizonte just to see the show and, let me tell you, it was the best thing i´ve done so far this year, really, the concert was amzingly fantastic! The only one thing I regret is not having met you at the airport... My flight was one and a half hour ealier then yours... Such a pitty! But my congrats to Keane! Great show! And I'd like to know if you received a gift from me, my mom and my sister, a little tree made of colored stones. It was in a box and it had some little things written in "post its". A big tatooed guy said he was going to give it to you, but i'm not sure... If yes, please say something, post a picture or send an email. Thank you very much. Ana Julia
