Re: The Fall

Saw them once,they played for 30 mins and Mark E Smith had his back to the crowd for the whole gig, worst gig I have ever been to.Shame as I used to be a fan. Lol, I think that may be when I went on a downer with the Fall. Was this around 1998/99? Thinking this was around the time he sacked his (mo...

Re: The Fall

Fantastic band but hard to get into for any "Fall newbie"...where do you start with the back catalogue for example? I love 'em, always have, although I had my moments of not listening to them for a while - it's a mood thing. For me the albums I return to again and again are: The Real New F...

Re: Blockbusters gone into Administration

What hacks me off about the Jessops and HMV situations is that they obviously chose to "milk" the Christmas period knowing they were in dire straits, yet flogging worthless vouchers and taking deposits on orders. As the press have reported today - it's theft basically.

Re: Quality of design, gone astray somewhere...

Trouble is, because everyone is obsessed with getting the best possible price, everything is made down to a price and quality suffers. Surprised about the shoes, unless you used a high-street chain repairer rather than a proper old-style shoe repairer. Not surprised they needed doing, mine don't la...

Re: Happy Mondays & 808 State 2nite.

Proud to be Northern (Manchester) but quite happy to be living in the South (Surrey). Think great music and northerners go hand in hand together. I certainly have great memories of growing up in Manchester in the late 1970's and 80's with the music of Factory, The Fall, JCC and errr....Sad Café all ...

Re: New Order in 2012

I can understand his annoyance Bear Cage, but that's how life goes unfortunately eh. I have yet to verify this, but a mate of mine was telling me Hooky had been selling stuff on E-bay claiming it belonged to Ian Curtis, when it didn't. I think it was actually stuff claiming to bear his signature ac...
