Hiya folks!
Je suis vraiment excité pour la représentation de Pulpe à Paris, dans Le Zenith (06/07). C'est une evenement super!
Mais ou else est comingues? Will nous seeions la rotation dans le setlist? Lip-Gloss? Lundi Matin? Ma Cherie Legendaire? L'Eclipse Partiale? As-Tu Elle Regarder Recemmement? Comme Un Ami? Le Jour Apres la Revolution? VIVE LA REVOLUTION! Vive le Pulpolution...
Aux armes, Pulpoyens! Formez vos bataillons! Marchons, marchons... the lyrics of La Marsaillaise are unclear, but I believe they roughly translate to "To arms, Pulp fans! Form your batallions! March, march, so that we may hold aloft Mark Webber's fluffy pink scarf in victory". I think the sentiment of the original anthem is: 'we will entirely be playing Separations era songs. Or something.'
Anyway, who's going to be there?
'Constipation' in different languages:
English - constipation
Spanish - constipación
Italian - costipazione
Portuguese - constipação
Dutch - constipatie
French - ne me shitter pas
I'm flying over with my other half Lipglossed :) .
I translated your post... Google Translated Have You Seen Her Lately as Have You Watched Her Recently? Which tickled me.
I can't understand the second paragraph even with Google translate (sorry!)... is it saying they may play Separations songs only?
We are at the front standing. How about you? Very excited for two days in Paris. We booked a dinner cruise on the Seine the night prior which we are also excited for.
I'll be there! We'll see how Pulp can handle the next canicule. I want them to play all TIH, some Separations and WLL tracks and More (Tina & Hymn of the North because I'm from the North...of France)

Does Google Translate have Franglais?
Just over an hour to go until the Paris gig.
There is a respite for anyone that forget their glasses, we found just the shop!
Mark posted a picture of the rabbit catching his hand in the doors of a Paris metro complete with The Tones Of Evil soundtrack... which was nice.
No, don't come round tonight! You'll never make it right! But still your voice is ringing in my ears!
I'm feeling incresingly hopeful of many Sep songs at the Manc and EOTR gigs!
A Seppy-HisnHers back to back extravaganza #God'sPlan
Listen to how good these versions sound...
And a tease of Cheesy Lady
Amazing! Jarvis "being a stylophone" is the one.
Not the first time they've played HYSHL this century, mind. They played it at the first night of the Brixton shows in 2011. ;D
it was a-ma-zing! Hot, generous (She's an improvised lady), loud. The best of the three I had the chance to see. Long live Pulp. Jarvis finished "en nage" (add it to your vocabulary)
Amazing - up there with Cheesy Lady!
Have You Seen Her Lately sounded fantastic too. Bit of a subdued DYWMA? compared to the swirling stabby melodrama of '87-'91, but still great to hear.
Thinking of Separations, we've somehow got to the point where more than half of it has been trotted out this century at one point or another...
Love Is Blind - t'other week
Don't You Wan't Me Anymore - yesterday (and Brixton 2011)
She's Dead - Forest tour 2002
Separations - not yet
Down by the River - not yet
Countdown - a few times on the 2011-13 tours
Legendary Girlfriend - Forest Tour 2002, Jarv Is tour
Death II - not yet
This House - not yet (how amazing would that be!)
EDIT: Having checked, seems I was wrong about She's Dead being played in 2002. They did do it in '98 a couple of times but I was sure it had been played after that?
That impromptu She's a Lady is incredible! I love hearing everyone trying to work out what key he's in so they can join in!
Those "what have we forgotten...?" moments before Common People are really taking off. I still can't get over Jarvis starting to sing the original Nites of Suburbia recently.

If they ever did full album shows, it would be great if Russell could join them for his songs. Here's to hoping...

Yes - a bit more moody and brooding than the anxious sound of the original. Fitting it into the more modern Pulp style I guess? Emma does a great job emulating Russell's playing style though!
Also, I'll be fascinated to find out whether the inclusion of "The Mark Of The Devil" in the voting slot on one of the recent set lists was just a joke or not... so far every other song that was on that list has been given an airing! Not beyond the realm of possibility...
I think Jarvis may be enjoying the novelty of "reimagining" some of the earlier material atm?
