Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

I'm getting into Robert Palmer :shock: I only really knew him from addicted to love and that Duran Duran band he was in. But the late 70s/early 80s stuff is good. Maybe I'm getting old and middle of the road. I never liked new order, but that was mainly because of their tedious remixes and me dislik...

I enjoyed the night, despite the stranglers being ignored.

Listening to lydon I can see why glen Matlock doesn't want to spend time on a tour bus with him.

The cure was a brave choice. Glastonbury seems to need lots of interaction between the band and the audience and you're never going to get that with Robert Smith. I enjoyed seeing the audience's reaction to the opener with its (what seems like) 45 min intro. But what's not to love about 'A Forest'? ...

Oh, I'm sorry. That sucks.

I suspect there isn't a great deal of pixies love on here, but I've just heard a new track on 6music and there's a promise of a new LP in September.

<- me doing a happy dance.

Thanks for this. I real rate lanegan.

That's such sad news. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Funny you say he's friends with Ray Winston, I thought Steve's looks like Ray in Sexy Beast in some of his Instagram photos. :shock: I remember reading about the sex pistols reunion tours. They made a fortune from them, but the others had to travel separately to John, and stay in different hotels. I...

He's having the time of his life over there, isn't he?

I've only heard a few of his radio shows,I should listen to more. He gets some good guests.

I don't know anyone who doesn't like the buzzcocks, that's some going for a punk band.

It's such sad news.

I guess it depends on the band's financial position to be able to take a full year off? Good point. The likes of U2, Radiohead and Coldplay will be spending extended periods not writing, recording or touring because they can afford it. The majority of bands need to keep working to pay the bills, th...

It's all of those artistic temperaments and strong egos that cause bands to make rash decisions that they can't back down from. At least the stranglers aren't suing each other like the new order lot. I suspect that the rolling stones have been close to splitting up - I get the impression that they a...
