Re: 1st STRANGLERS GIG
First Stranglers gig was Lincoln Drill Hall September something or other 1978. The main thing I recall was having to put up with The Skids (Ahoy bloody Ahoy) and the letchy bigger boys from school :roll: What is it about being stuck in the centre of a throng which gives ugly, greasy lowlifes the ide...

Re: Top 3 gigs of 2011
British Sea Power @ Galtres Festival Jim I sat eating roast beef in a huge Yorkshire pudding whilst watching them - missed the first couple of tracks as I'd been watching Puressence further up the field.

Re: The Specials
Off to see them on Saturday at The Apollo, Manchester so will report back. Interesting to see that the tour hasn't sold out apart from Manchester and London (not even the Coventry date). Guessing they are going to have to bite the bullet and decide whether they are going to write new material. Am g...

Re: magazine

Re: Desert Island Dicks
In no particular order and just today Script of the Bridge - The Chameleons Black & White - The Stranglers - but I'd have had a right dilema because usually I'd plump for The Gospel According... Killing Joke - Killing Joke First and Last and Always - Sisters of Mercy Doolittle - The Pixies Skell...
