Re: RAH
They should get a group of people assembling some sort of Ikea cabinet as an opening act next. It'd sound the same. I suppose the main feature would be worried about being blown offstage, though.

Re: Bristol
Now wait! I have a thought! Stranglers and friends. Bring on some fans or fellow artists to fill the rolls!!! Given that JJB&F fans don't seem to care who is in the band these days as long as the songs get sung, they should get either JJ or Toby to sing everything. Or even Jim. The crowd would ...

Having a Gentle Giant binge: Acquiring the Taste, Three Friends, Octopus, In a Glass House, The Power and The Glory, Free Hand... sublime.

Re: To all those w@nkers who wouldn’t stand next to the critical thinkers who knew covid was bolloxs and who were dumb e
Hmm. You see, I know people who contracted COVID pre-vaccine and were very close to death. I contracted COVID after I'd had the vaccine and it was fucking awful. I sure as hell wouldn't have liked to have caught it pre-vaccine. Either way, none of this bollocks has much to do with JJ Burnel & Fr...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
The concept of the sleeve is pretty much a representation of the concept of the album. The Last Supper with the man in black, the meeting of the biblical with the extraterrestrial.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
He may have been the initial spark of inspiration due to the literature he was reading, but it was Hugh that moulded those disparate ideas of UFOs and bible stories into the concept. Unless you're suggesting Jet wrote the lyrics, which he didn't.

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
People slagging off Hugh is perhaps the most bizarre of all, though. If not for Hugh, none of us would be posting here. Or Jet's logistics, or Dave's vital musical output. Nobody ever slagged off Jet's logistics. Nobody ever slagged off Dave's keyboard playing either. Until towards the end when he ...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
Stan just hits a nerve. We could critise the band in other ways, like how bad 10 is or how brass section was a mistake, without anyone claiming its insulting the stranglers or a sign of not being a real fan. The curent tour or album is always sacred. Like they are the lady di of the stranglers hist...

Re: 50th Anniversary Setlist?
I'd be well up for JJ doing something weird and arty as a solo project, maybe another concept piece like Euroman Cometh or The Gospel According to the Meninblack (even though The Gospel was Hugh's concept, it says so on the sleeve) You don't know much about the Stranglers do you? The concept was on...
