Re: Strangler in the light

I would say yes the money always helps, but for someone in JJ's position it's more a case of not losing money so he's probably happy to travel & play if it doesn't cost him.
Isn't he effectively semi retired now anyway?

Re: Strangler in the light

Met JE on a couple of occassions. Each time he came across alright. I think JJ comes across worst out of the pair of them in the book and that's using JJ's account! [emoji38] - The only thing I thought JJ was in the right on was JE alleged money grabbing antics but then we all need to earn money ri...

Re: Dark Matters has it stood the test of time?

Listening to The Rolling Stones' latest. Now, THAT'S how you make a late career record. Are they all the original members or is it Mick and friends? Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, the creative forces of The Rolling Stones since the very beginning, are still very much there. You go to see the Stone...

Re: Brilliant instrumental cover!!! Tribute

It's very well done I agree. But I find it too repetitive as an instrumental, this song needs the beautiful lyrics & vocals

Re: Strangler in the light

It's great to see JJ looking so well and happy.
He's probably just taking the piss a bit with his comment about Hugh touring toilets.

Re: Dark Matters has it stood the test of time?

Yeah Caz was a brilliant Bass player and not only that her backing vocals really complimented Hugh's vocals . I wish she was still in Hugh's band to be honest probably the best line up Hugh ever had. Was she dumped because she was becoming too popular and putting Hugh in the shade ? Nice play on wo...

Re: straighten out best tribute band ever.

They have been going for quite a long time now. Although I can't remember the first time I saw them, I do know it was more than 10 /12 years ago. It's gotta be hard work for them when they do these tours, what with all the setting up & humping their gear around etc.. I can't imagine there's much...

Re: straighten out best tribute band ever.

Saw them at Ruislip the other week, same set. Preferable to going to see the Stranglers. I can't disagree with you and I can only hope they keep it going into the future, because it's just great for old bastards like me who still like a night out every now and then. And what better than to see &...

Re: The Stones..Hackney Diamonds.

Well I like some Stones stuff but not all. Will listen to the new album out of curiosity more than anything. Whatever you think of them I think you gotta give it to them. It's quite incredible that they're still going with such energetic performances after so many decades. They can't need the money,...
