Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

I didn't say they were as good as the original lineup,but from the Half gig I saw in Portsmouth they were fantastic and IMHO still worthy of being called the Stranglers,and I'm not delusional its just my opinion of what I heard and saw.Major Kudu.

As someone who really wasn't looking forward to this tour,I felt it was a step to far,and even though I was ill and only saw first set,the truth is I was blown away by how good they were,of course it's only JJ as original member obviously,but Baz has earned the right to be up there and Jim and Toby...

Does anyone ever say that ACDC are not ACDC because Bon Scott isn't in them? I was thinking that the other day,Angus being only original member,Brian has been lead singer longer than Bonn Scott,it's just if people think the music is still true to the Spirit they will go,and believe the Stranglers a...

The current line up have done themselves proud and played exceptionally well I can't fault them they gave great entertainment with a setlist that everybody enjoyed with songs asked for too. When I hear this tours Sewer at the RAH and done at the same venue with Paul and John for me is absolutely no...

I think from what I saw the RAH gig was something really special,a great achievement by band and crew.Major Kudu.

Yes I so wish I could have been there.Major Kudu.

I wouldn't go so far as to say best since the Hugh days (and I never saw MKI or II live so wouldn't say that anyway) but this has certainly been the best tour in years, with possibly the best setlist in decades. JJ was amazing as ever, great vocals and fantastic bass as usual. Baz, as I said in the...

Ok the tour is over,apart from the rearranged Bristol date, personally speaking I think the band have proved that they are still worthy of the Stranglers name with this tour, haven't played safe,have played songs that haven't been played since 1981,every gig seems to have been a blinder,of course JJ...

Well the RAH gig looked fantastic a really special gig and the Drummers added to the night,looked great to me,of course to be their you got the full effect,of course it would have been JJs idea as his love of Japan obviously,I don't see why anyone would criticise the band for doing something differe...

Sir to be honest,I would say they were better than when I saw them in 2022,they were just fantastic,such a good vibe between the band members,JJ of course is the Leader without a doubt, apparently during the second set which I missed Baz cocked up the GB solo,some footage which is quite amusing,I'm...
