С прошедшим тридцатилетием, Патрик!
А в сам ДР поздравляли его таким вот милым видео:
...И заручившись всевозможными официальными подтверждениями, можно с гордостью сообщаить - Патрик едет в Украину!!!
Вчера Патрик отыграл последний концерт тура и теперь, не считая нескольких летних фестивалей, собирается отдохнуть и параллельно (что для него, вобщем-то и есть отдых) начать работу над, как он загадочно выразился, "side projects". Также заявил, что третьего архивного ЕП уже не будет (что тоже очевидно, при окончании-то тура).
В честь праздника слушаем вчерашнее часовое интерью с приветами от РашнВулфпака и от меня:

Возрадуемся! На обложке нового-старого альбома Патрик предстал с нашими гуслями, как символом "надежды", в смысле по тому же поводу - гомофобные законы. Более того, гусли активно участвовали в записи альбома, который увидит свет 15го октября. На заднем фоне - "Весна" Ботичелли как символ возрождения/перерождения. На самом Патрике, поверх рубахи, все, что осталось от топа с обложки Ликантропии, что тоже очень сиволично, как ретроспектива за 10 лет творчества.
Патрик НЕ приедет в Россию. Патрик бойкотирует Россию. По крайней мере, пока не будут отменены небезызвестные законы. Просит делится этим видео и лелеять светлые надежды о том, что все стабилизируется.
dearest friends family and wwwpack……Please share this video with as many people as you can, raise your voice, us “people have the power” united kingdom, do you remember Section 28? This is worse. Russia is going backwards with equality laws and the message is spreading across eastern europe. its a big step backwards for such a beautiful country. Like this video says, i too, with much sadness and misery will have to boycott russia on future tours until this law changes. I would be a criminal by performing as would my clarinet player, as you know I’m not one to bite my tongue onstage. I have hope. my russian audience are in my blood and soul. Lets do this, for russia with love that knows no boundaries and sees beyond sexuality x patrick |
Спец. корреспондент, побывавшая вчера на концерте в Италии: "Волчата, вам всем огромный привет от Патрика! Он сказал, что российская публика - самая лучшая! Но на мой вопрос, когда он приедет с гастролями в Россию, он ответил, что пока трудно планировать их. Этому препятствует их сексуальная ориентация. В России к таким как они - негативное отношение...жаль. Я передаю то, что он мне сказал.. "
Спешл фо Аня & Оля ;D
"This is my ten year anniversary and I don't really like greatest hits compilations so what I'm doing - and this is an exclusive - is that I'm recording a brand new album next Monday. I'm going back to the studio and recording my jubilee record and that's as much as I'll say. But it's in connection to this tour and the album will be out in time for these shows in Australia."
The album will be totally, totally, totally stripped down. It's time for me to be retrospective about the last ten years before I move onto the next ten. I'm 28 and I think it's quite fun to sing the songs you wrote as a teenager."
FROM CHILD PRODIGY TO KNIFE-WIELDING, GENRE-BUSTING, BULLY-BAITING CHAMELEON, PATRICK WOLF HAS NEVER TAKEN THE EASY ROUTE. AS HE EDGES CLOSER TO THE MAINSTREAM, PIPPA BROOKS ASKS: IS THE MAINSTREAM READY FOR PATRICK WOLF?
Patrick Wolf is an artist who wears his heart bravely on his sleeve: his self-creation is an ongoing evolution entirely of his own making. There are no stylists, there’s no “media training”, just a strong desire to express, experiment and create something true, which doesn’t repeat itself and stands the test of time. At 28, having released album number five, Lupercalia, in June 2011, Wolf’s heroic trajectory represents a world of musical influences and collaborations from digital hardcore to folk, Marianne Faithfull to Tilda Swinton. Sometimes his diversifications have left fans and critics bewildered and even resentful – defying categorisation isn’t playing the game, which is about staying comfortably in your box.
I first noticed Patrick when he was practically still a child. At 12 and 13 he would swagger past the doormen at The Garage in Islington, all fur coat and attitude. My band, Posh, were on the indie circuit at the time and Patrick would show up at gigs and festivals with his sister Jo. He stood out; still childlike and shy, but burning with a desire to be part of a music scene that had wrenched him from his classical background. It wasn’t long before he took to the stage himself; his sister would press “play” on the four-track and he would play his car-boot-sale musical finds. Though he cringes about his musical output from those days, there was discernible drive and ambition. This bravado saw him join music collective Minty at 14 – 14! – and start to perform and collaborate with the characters he met on that Offset scene. That he was “different” isn’t really in question. As a child, his day-to-day pursuits had been considerably more erudite than most: “Thinking about it now, I was singing Catholic evensong three nights a week and I was being classically trained on the violin. I guess other young boys were kicking a football about!”
I meet Patrick for our interview on a cold, wet January night. He’s
Русское тв как всегда отличилось и наплело кучу несуразного бреда, но спасибо что хоть немного закулисья поснимали :)
