Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?

so it'd be great if he could work with a guitarist that's willing to experiment and not fall back on blues cliches. Jon Ellis is the type of guitarist for that, but tat would never happen lol, but I've recently been listening to an album called 'Sons of Shiva' and the guitarist from that album woul...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?

Just watched some footage of the gigs with Baz and whilst singing Golden Brown on cue goes to the front of the stage mid song and holds his hands out like the messiah of stranglers song writing egging the crowd on to adore him and cheer. I wasn't going to say anything but i have never been a fan of...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?

Have to agree with Kudo ... leave Genetix alone, had a look on YT from Glasgow and wasn't really impressed with vocal or anything else, actually went and made a cuppa halfway through.,SO's Mick does a better job.

Hope they leave it alone at Halifax gig.

Not sure I've ever heard Hallow to Our Men live before and I've been going to see them since 78. Missed a few years when PR was in the band but not missed many tours.
They played it on the MIB tour 8)

Re: Strangler in the light

If you define the "blame" as JJ holding grudges then that's in his remit. I don't get the feeling Hugh has a grudge against JJ - I think he's disappointed they couldn't remain on speaking terms or whatever. I can't for one second imagine Hugh writing a book like JJ's and going to town on ...
