Kelsey's Review of EP002

The new EP review time! For me, I did really like this. I think Wide Awake is probably the most ‘NN2’ song on the album and it’s my pick for the best overall song on the album. It’s haunting in its own way (with the bloopy noises of electronica, the keyboard, and the whining guitar), and it will stay with you, most definitely. Mr. President is next up. Now… just...

So how are you liking the new EP? We will love to hear your opinion about it! And yep, I said “we” because Fuck Yeah Dhani Harrison has a new member that will help me (Benny) run it! So let me introduce you to the wonderful Kelsey! And hopefully we will have a new member joining us out next week as well. You know who you are, btw. ;) And that’s that. For your time:

”I was concerned that it was going to look like a vanity project but we’re just control freaks rather than spoilt brats. We’re not Paris Hilton. We want to own our publishing and masters and do all the photography, videos and artwork ourselves”.

“Dhani’s close to the girls (Paul’s daughters) as well, and it’s an odd thing. They know what it’s like to have a dad, as a Beatle. With it comes certain baggage. They’re siblings, they understand, they get it. They roll their eyes at the same things.” -Olivia Harrison

“Sick, sick skater.” - Ben Harper when asked to describe Dhani

“He’s probably laughing at me, saying, ‘That’s what it’s supposed to look like.’...”

“Dhani remembers hanging with Jakob Dylan and playing Duck Hunt on his Nintendo...”

– Rolling Stone (via wentintoadream)

“Yeah, the whole Bristol music scene from the 90’s was very influential to me… Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead (!), That was sort of the most important music in my life. Tricky, at least. And just, really, our own sound kind of just developed. I mean… … we did an album which never got released.” … WHAT?!

So who has pre-order?

I did! Option 4. =D welltheboyfriendkindlyofferedto.

Dhani Harrison: Whitest boy alive

Reasons to love Dhani

His unique logic. “How old were you when you realized that sandwiches tasted good?” -Dhani when asked how old was he when he realised who his dad was.

We would have liked to have taken thermodynamics in college. Or something around those lines… “ The one that I missed on, thermodynamics, because I would have a better degree now. Or something to do with mind control.” Dhani when asked which class he would most like to take. Also thank you for all the messages you guys left in my inbox. Surgery went well and I’m now...

NEW PJ20 PICTURES

“I’m proud of whom my Dad was, he was a great guy. But people try and make it like thats the be-all and end-all and he’s not alive anymore, so I have to do my own thing. He taught me that from an early age”. Also: I’m kinda tired of ignoring anonymous messages asking why I run a Dhani/thenewno2 tumblr if Radiohead is my favourite band. I mean, how dare I like...

Hello Thenewno2 Fans!!

thenewno2fan: If you have the thenewno2 cd,t-shirt or just something that show your love for the band, take a picture and tag “thenewno2”. I will reblog! Let’s share some thenewno2 love!! NICE ONE! Thanks! Love xx Go and do it! I’m sure a bunch of us would love to see them! =)

First let’s look at the pretty: Is my opinion really that important? Is not. I love thenewno2 and I wish them the best and I just want for them to be admired and praised for the great music they’re putting out regardless of their connections. That’s all. And if you think otherwise, that’s fine. I don’t know the band, and even if I did, my opinion will mean...

thenewno2 posted a link to download “Live A Lie”, in case somenoe hasn’t got it yet. Follow this link!

“Narrated by his son Dhani, each details the pandemonium that followed the group wherever they went, the frustrations that came with global adoration and the beginnings of his journey into Eastern spiritualism.” -Mojo Magazine For complete article, go here

THENEWNO2 FACEBOOK UPDATE:

Can you imagine him doing a thenewno2 documentary shot over 11 years? Like he did with Patti? Nah. He’s also a fashion photographer, so must likely he took yesterday’s photo shoot. For your time: Jedi Master Harrison. (Aw, I missed my Jedi Master Harrison posts… he needs to bring the cloak back, dammit!)

Anonymous asked: Hi, different anon here :)
I'd like to disagree with the other anon who said NN2 got 3k fans cause of the promotions on george's page
NN2 has barely put out any music for a couple of years now and they'd still get fans. Now, they have a new ep out. They're playing the shows with pearl jam, the strokes etc so I think they did earn most of those fans

Anonymous Question: I just remember when Sean...

First the pretty: “i just remember when sean was in cibo matto but i really never followed his career (or any of the other beatle kids, i found nn2 totally randomly)…i think what kind of irked me was the promoting of the nn2 ep on the george harrison fb page. just because it brought in like 3k new people most of whom are there for the genealogy vs the music. maybe it’s the...

Reasons to love Dhani

During the thenewno2 performance at PJ20 festival the band was having sound problems on stage, so Dhani used his megaphone to get someone to fix it. Clever boy is clever.

Anonymous asked: ok so this is a random question and you totally don't have to answer if you don't want to. but for years dhani made a big deal out of not cashing in on his family name, wanting to remain anonymous (hence tnn2) but does it sort of feel like lately he's switched around on that? just like, i dunno, it feels like he uses his name more than say, sean lennon, who is out there doing really...

impennylane: ‘Say’-Thenewno2 Really, you need...

It is said that he cried after seeing THE BEATLES LOVE for the first time. (Anonymous submission, but I read it somewhere as well but can’t remember who said it, so posting it as a rumour.)

Thenewno2 are having a photoshoot today!

ilovedhaniharrison: According to Frank Zummo’s twitter (@fzummo) I’m excited for when the photos are released!

“Just that band, the Wilburys, was so nice,” Harrison recalls. “Tom Petty was the kind of guy who was always kind of fun and happy,… and was like a real rock ‘n’ roller. He was a really big influence on me.”

“Thenewno2 is led by Dhani Harrison, who shouldn’t hear any more son of the father talk after work with the thenewno2 and Fistful of Mercy. He was able to masterfully mix guitar, keyboard and electronic sounds with his band into a unique sound.” Finally. Read the complete article here.
