• Unfamiliar Stars (2011) | DVD | (22/08/2011) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  RIYL : The Smiths, Belle and Sebastian, The Magnetic Fields. Filmed at The Lucksmiths' farewell show at Melbourne's Corner Hotel on August 29, 2009, Unfamiliar Stars is both a captivating concert film and a definitive end-of-the-line document of an underground Australian icon, standing tall among the best of the band's vast discography.Directed by Natalie van den Dungen (The Tote documentary), the film captures the final bittersweet airings of many Lucksmiths favourites like T-Shirt Weather, Camera-Shy and The Chapter in Your Life Entitled San Francisco, as witnessed by a full house of hometown fans, friends and family. Clocking in at a total of thirty-three songs, the swansong performance is the culmination of farewell tours across Europe and Australia, and finds the band in vintage form, cherry-picking pop gem after pop gem from their sixteen-year career and filling the gaps with a double-dose of irrepressible Lucksmiths repartee. A short documentary of the band's final months rounds out the package. Darkening Doorways presents an intimate view of The Lucksmiths in rehearsal, in the recording studio and throughout their farewell tour.Set List:1) A Hiccup in Your Happiness2) Good Light3) A Downside to the Upstairs4) Synchronised Sinking5) Myopic Friends6) Camera-shy7) Stayaway Stars8) Untidy Towns9) The Golden Age of Aviation10) Take This Lying Down11) Successlessness12) Great Lengths13) Song of the Undersea14) Under the Rotunda15) Requiem For the Punters Club16) Frisbee17) Macintyre18) Punchlines19) Weatherboard20) Broken Bones21) The Chapter in Your Life Entitled San Francisco22) Self-Preservation23) California in Popular Song24) Smokers in Love25) Fiction26) Caravanna27) A Sobering Thought (Just When One Was Needed)28) Sunlight in a Jar29) T-Shirt Weather30) Midweek Midmorning31) The Great Dividing Range32) The Music Next Door33) The Year of Driving Languorously
