Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

Going through a bit of a Stiff Little Fingers phase at the moment.( My SLF collection consists of the first 4 albums & singles from that period in their vinyl versions.) Saw a few of their cd's going for a very cheap price in my local record store (God!that sounds corny & so out of date!) ....

If Rock N Roll Swindle was anything to go by they`d have been shite! Jim Personally I wouldn't class 'The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle' as a Sex Pistols album. I do agree that they would have probably gone on to churn out shit albums if they'd continued after 'Bollocks' (with Rotten)....in fact I th...

:D That's a lot of money for a tribute band !!! Stranglers gigs over the £20 barrier....why are gigs so expensive in this Country ??....They are a lot cheaper on the continent.. ??? It's the booking/handling fees that really piss me off. Why does there have to be a charge for each ticket & not...

Anyone considering going to SBE but not got tickets yet? If so, I would advise you to get them a.s.a.p. Finally got around to ordering mine yesterday. However I had to shop around as a few of the on-line ticket agencies had nothing left for the stalls, nevermind level 1 seats. I eventually managed ...

Buzzcocks: A Different Kind Of Tension Do you think that`s the best `Cocks album? Jim Yeah, can't think of a better one.
