Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

There was a punch up at the recent Liquid Rooms gig which was the first fighting I've seen for a while at their gigs. Always rough, good couple of flying elbows always clobber me, but I feel safe enough. Which is weird as I am a very shy and quiet person, but I feel my natural habitat are rough gig...

Just to chip in that I saw them recently at the Liquid Rooms. it is good each year seeing them around Oct in Edinburgh then March for the Barras gig. I've racked up over 100 SLF gigs since 1980 and the last 4 or 5 years have seen a real rise in the quality of their shows. They are fantastic again l...

I was just saying to someone that maybe they are the first punk/new wave act where the core emmbers are now all pushing up daisies.

I tried to read Lydon's book a couple of times but could never get past all the childhood stuff. The Siouxsie book was ok but nothing that great ands eemed lightweight compared to the likes of 'no mercy'. I've no idea how many times I've read that now. The Pulp one was good though. A good tale of p...

it is on :)
