Re: Keith Levene RIP

A sad loss indeed.

Re: Killing Joke

Does anyone know what the ticket prices were for the Royal Albert Hall?

I don't know why Pavement played Manchester Apollo.
Plenty of quite large university/student venues in Manchester.
Taking 30% of Lovely Eggs merchandise money is absolutely sickening. Ideally these capitalists want to enslave us and put us in chains I guess this is next best thing.

Re: The Buzzcocks new album later in year.

I think I read a few years ago that Diggle has paid off the Highgate house.

He probably plays just for the glory , good luck to him. Dunno why he wants to live in London though.
