It would be nice to hear Paul Cook's drums on "No Fun" again. Always loved that particular pistolsesque intro.

I'm 22 and have never seen the Sex Pistols, so I have been waiting for this chance for ages.

I fear that a special, unique device designed (over a period of say 30 odd years?), in a laboratory by men in white coats, specifically for the sole purpose of 'putting The Stranglers back on the music map where they belong' wouldn't be able to fulfill that request mate. :cry:

However, I do echo your sentiments..........

If Dave was to use a Hammond L100 for just one more gig I'd die content.

I wanna see the Pistols but I don't think they're old enough yet - I wanna see em when they're all in their 60s - True chaos! :lol:

I'd be tempted if the support was someone I liked.

Gutted :( Didn't get a ticket today, loads of sites selling at inflated prices, if anyone knows of a spare going I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,

9:00 Friday morning is a particularly busy time for me, so there was never a chance I'd have time to get tickets before they sold out. :(
Not too bothered - enjoyed the Finsbury Park gig in 1996, but Brixton on a school night is a bit of a trek for nearly £40.
Goldblade are due to play Hitchin the following night - better value for less than a tenner methinks. :grin:
