RAH

Great concert - and amazing setlist - there must have been at least 5 songs I have never heard performed live before. The sheer energy of the band is outstanding. - literally as soon as the last note of one song was played the next song begins - almost no gaps between songs at all. There did seem to...

Re: Bristol

Unfortunatley, the 100 day cough is spreading like wildfire across the UK so it would be optimistic to assume Baz will be better by Tuesday. I have just flown from Dubai to London specfically for the RAH concert so will be pretty gutted if it doesnt go ahead!

Re: Strangler in the light

Apart from the "why does he hate john ellis so much" mystery, there is one other perpelxing aspect to the book - he descibes having attempted suicide several times, and describes gonig to hang himself in his garage and changing his mind at the last minute. This is described rather flippant...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?

bit disappointing that JJ said in his recent French interview that no new Stranglers album is in the pipeline currently, especially after raising our hopes that they would spend the winter in the recording studio. It now looks like he is keener to get a French langauge solo album out instead

unlisted gigs

How many Stranglers gigs have not been officially listed on the website or marketed / advertised. There have been quite a few corporate and industry gigs as far as I know, as well as trade shows such as Midem in Cannes. Hugh has also done quite a few private gigs - including at birthday parties in p...

Re: Strangler in the light

Just finished reading it - a really detailed and fascinating book. I found one or two chapters tiresome (an entire chapter devoted to punch-ups, which everybody on this Forum has already heard a hundred times before), and there are a few factual errors (to give two examples - there is no Indian Amba...

No Hard Feelings

Another Camden Afternoon features in this movie, about 4 minutes in - and the band are credited for the song at the end.

It’s a fun film (I just watched it on a flight from Boston to Heathrow) and features Jennifer Anderson doing full frontal birthday suit stuff 😱😱😱
