Re: U2

The live album Blood Red Sky is the only one I can deal with really. Bits off Zooropa. Jim I agree, I remember seeing 'Under A Blood Red Sky' concert film on the tube in 1983 and I thought it was brilliant but thereafter I thought it just went downhill and are a band I just can't bring myself to li...

Re: Mars Bar Rat Poison

Bugging me. Can anyone remember what year the mars bar rat poison scare happened? I remember Mars Bars being off the shelves for around a year. I'm guessing mid 80s. Jim Story broke on 18th November 1984. The Animal Liberation Front apparently spiked Mars Bars with rat poisoning following stories a...

Re: New Tour - Setlist Spoilers

Great gig last night, thought a couple of songs were dodgy and was disappointed that 'Sewer' wasn't in for a second straight tour. I noticed that Baz sung 'Norfolk Coast', didn't JJ replace Paul's vocals on previous tours for this song? Good to hear WWTW, Thrown Away & Straighten Out again. Inte...

Re: Captain Sensible's Stage Clothes

The Captain has 6 shirts and a jacket all up for sale and the bidding is between £20 and £30 on each item so far. That's a minimum of £140 in the bank and the bidding ain't over yet. But Rat's is more surreal. :lol: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/THE-DAMNED-NEW-ROSE-ORIGINAL-RECORDING-PARTICLES-/1609794...

Re: seen on AMAZON

Thanks for the info. That must be the 'Chorus' French TV performance from November 1979. I think this was released by the TV company two years ago on a compilation DVD and as a separate download. 8)

Re: HMV Enters Administration

Honestly can't believe they lasted as long as they did!! :smt017 I always had a preference for the 'Virgin' stores, when I was a teenager they used to stock 7" Japanese imports, strangled mags and some decent t-shirts and always had a better selection of LP's and imports. That was the Glasgow a...

Re: Sir Patrick Moore. Gone.

Sorry Ribery, but your comments hit a raw nerve with me. When I was a kid, I remember my Mum saying to me 'If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all' . With Sir Patrick Moore, I want to celebrate his life as a doyen of astronomy. I'm not interested in his views on things...
