Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Ok I'm keeping away from main set list,but I know a few songs they are playing,and I was very disappointed at the pedestrian version of Sewer,it's like Jim is struggling with it? Major Kudu.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Slightly back on topic, it seems they played exactly the same set on the gigs so far? Which is boring,JJ always says we change set every night.Major Kudu. They only change the set a little if a song isn't working. Jim Sent from my Pixel 6 using Tapatalk My advice drop Genetix,as it's truly awful IM...

Re: The Ramones
Some of their 80s stuff is great and rather neglected. More sophisticated songwriting and arrangements. Just a wonderful , wonderful band.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
I just find it a bit ironic that 'fans' who have no interest in the current Stranglers are all over this thread. It isn't my cup of tea either,a JJ only Stranglers,which is why I won't be attending any shows but what skin off anybody else's nose I don't know. Look I'm only mid 20s and the first tim...

Re: Dark Matters Vinyl
There wasn't much that jumped out Kudu, first tour in years that I've not bought anything. Hi Sir not even any half zipped tops? That they had on 2022 tour,I wear those all the time, great quality fruit of the Loom on 2022 tour.Major Kudu. They did have something like that and hoodies. The Dark Mat...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Stan you are right about NC,it was trying to create a sound of old,but it's a pretty good album IMHO.Major Kudu.StanInBlack wrote: ↑11 Mar 2024, 16:12I'd rate it higher than Dark Matters or Giants, although I can't remember the last time I listened to it.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
As I keep on saying I'm only really going to Portsmouth for sentimental reasons,as 50 years is a great achievement whatever anyone thinks of the band now,plus I don't get out much these days apart from Ops in Kenya my second home.Major Ray Lizzo Styles Murrs.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Just a few opinions on what’s been said Toby’s performance on Genetix and should he be doing it? Of course it’s not going to sound like Dave, how could it. Just as Paul Roberts and John Ellis were never going to be like Hugh (or sounding like JJ on JJ’s originally sung songs). Ditto Baz and Jim for...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
I have seen a few clips of current tour and am avoiding looking at whole set as I want a surprise in Portsmouth, maybe a Stripper waiting in my Hotel room would be good 🙂 joking,but the weak point is definitely the vocals of Baz,on some songs it's ok,but Hallow was great musically but his vocals let...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
To be balanced,I remember seeing the band to Hallow back in the day,and I would say possibly the most difficult song to play live,I saw some footage on the current tour and I would say they nailed it,I commend them for that,of course you can't beat Hughs vocals,but Baz did a pretty good job IMHO and...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Just watched some footage of the gigs with Baz and whilst singing Golden Brown on cue goes to the front of the stage mid song and holds his hands out like the messiah of stranglers song writing egging the crowd on to adore him and cheer. Indeed. It's always been painfully grating to see the former ...
