The Frames: live in concert (video and audio)

I love The Frames and it almost sickens me how many times I’ve had to respond to “Who are The Frames?” And it’s not because I’m a music snob, or I think I’m better than anybody, exactly the opposite. I want everyone to know about this band because of how damn good they are and I can not fathom how they have never managed break in the States. They still aren’t getting attention, even after Glen Hansard won an Oscar for “Falling Slowly” (from the movie Once). I mean, WTF? Now I feel like I need to do some deep breathing exercises. Anyway, while looking through the web in a boredom induced haze the other day, I stumbled across a live show MoshCam.com professionally recorded and are still streaming from 2007. So this might be old business, but I would love for you to check it out anyway and see if you like it. And if you do, tell other people...they deserve some love. And if you are the type of person that will only watch one song, watch the last one, “Red Chord.” But you have to watch it all the way through, the build is what makes it.

Here’s the link for the stream, a song from it called “Revelate” (kick ass song) is above, the concert setlist is below AND right here is a soundboard (audio download) from an NPR show.
