A friend of mine had a chat with the band on Monday at the Hammersmith Odeon and they confirmed to her the video for the new single was shot on Sunday and Monday (the band was on the set on Monday only apparantly). nice, that probably means the video is "three weeks from completion" Sorry, i just learnt i misunderstood, must have been the excitement !

So I just researched ‘Invisible’. The song bears no resemblance to translucent and has nothing to do with people disappearing in front of your very eyes. “There is this myth that it’s frivolous or unproductive to care about how you look. Clothing and fashion get trivialized a lot. But think about who get associated with clothing and fashion: young people, women, queers and people of color — groups of people who historically haven’t had a voice have expressed themselves on their bodies, through their style, their hair, their tattoos, their piercings and what they wear.” 99percentinvisible.org/episode/punk-style-articles-of-interest-6/Perhaps the band will restart the whole process of discovery and begin their careers during the reigning era of The Sex Pistols? Perhaps we’ll see them morph into different costumes throughout the video? Perhaps Simon will wear those leopard skin trousers that he wore as he entered the Rum Runner for the very first time? Whatever this song is about it’s going to rock like no other. I’ve a feeling in my waters. Butterflies in my stomach. This could turn out very special - or it could fail miserably.

I'm hoping it's going to be great, I'm excited to hear it, but alsoa little nervous. Just don't want something cringey, like they are trying to fit into today's music (whatever that is). I want to hear it and be blown away. Fingers crossed

I must admit, I’m enjoying the punk look. It’s like the band are going back in time to 1977/8 at the hight of Pistolmania. A kind of reverse from New Romantics. Is this something they wanted right at the beginning but got handed out frilly shirts and bandana’s instead of studded leather jackets and chains? By the way, loving Simon’s Doctor Martin’s. They are so huge on him doc martins that is! Man Roger is so fit! He keeps looking better with age! Does this guy workout

As predicted they filmed a TV live performance (for the Billboard Awards) there.

So is it a whole set then? Or just one song? Is this awards thingy a true live set? I still think it’s video promo for ‘Invisible’.

The fact that they had their sound engineer there always indicated to me that they were recording a ‘live’ TV performance for US television. You wouldn't need a sound engineer at a standard video shoot where the band mines to the pre recorded track. It’ll just be one song as per the official announcement. So is it a whole set then? Or just one song? Is this awards thingy a true live set? I still think it’s video promo for ‘Invisible’.
