Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

thanks Dan!

I used to be of the opinion that were bands to be twinned in the same way as towns then as far as the Stranglers are concerned The Damned would be the front runner. This was based on my own musical preferences and on the evidence appearing on jackets and shirts at gigs. However, membership of this f...

Hi, I had until about a year ago a pristine copy of the BBC 4 rebroadcast of the Specials 79 appearance on Rock Goes to College to replace my worn and grainy video copy. Then my JVC dvd recorder hard drive failed before I had the opportunity to transfer it to DVD. Anyone out there have a dvd copy of...

There are two fantastic full set videos on Dime (of Cap's set and The Glitter band (with Jona Lewie and Captain).

Always loved Captain's solo material. This gig reminds me of seeing him at Brunel University back in 1990.

Not on board with the Glasgow venue either..pretty shit to be honest... two nights at the Academy or Barrowlands would have been sooo much better....£££££dough... :roll: My heart leaped when I saw this as they were brilliant @ the Corn Exchange in Embra , then sank just as quickly when I saw it was...

This should be good. Both albums back to back apparently. Not sure about the choice of the London venue.... Brixton was about right.

Sure gonna be expensive as I will have to take my son Rudi along too.

How apt, this being Rememberance Sunday. I am particularly interested in the Great War. Not from a strategy/battlelines point of view, rather than from the perspective of the ordinary soldier in or above the trench. So the songs of the time although they sound very old (they are after all literally ...

Double baggers.... both of them!!

Last night I saw one of the best gigs I have seen in many years and I have to say it took me by surprise. On the back of the critical sucess of Oil City Confidential Wilco Johnson was playing the Islington Academy in London. Now I quite like the Feelgoods and I am familiar with their most well known...

Yeah, a fantastic positive story for a change amongst the usual doom and gloom that forms the most of our daily news. I watched No 9 come out and it was quite moving. Good luck to them all and may they never have to go down a mine shaft again! Is the guy who has both his wife and mistress waiting fo...

Ted, You would perhaps be surprised and the span of this forum (certainly from 76 to present). The Stranglers were/are a punk band and they and we have broad shoulders. Many opinions get expressed and believe me all of the personal opinions of members are pretty well known and generally respected. I...

This put a smile on my face today!!

Those dark Scottish nights must just fly by!

Fantastic stuff!
