Re: New keyboard player
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4ZHu7RpOzo Oh my fucking word, this is awful. What the fuck is Baz doing during this solo? So much preening and gurning and giving off the vibe that he thinks he's god's gift to music. Ok so it's clear you just don't like Baz, fair enough there is a certain amount o...

Re: New keyboard player
A comparison from 1985. Yep I stand by the recent one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLQ7YS-b8R4 The guitar solo reminded me of Les Dawson doing his comedy piano playing routine. [emoji23] Sent from my SM-A226B using Tapatalk hahaha yeah that is one awful guitar solo. As much as I love Hugh"...

Re: Dijon
I don’t think it’s anything to do with the line up It’s about why we like the Stranglers (and similar) in the first place. The music, the philosophy, the attitude, the rawness of it Performing over pre taped music is another step away from this, it’s akin to karaoke and going to see a DJ perform vi...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
Even if most of Stallion wasn't played live it's only one song big deal

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
So we've all seen and heard them live now with Toby and i think the song's have been ok i wouldn't of done Stallion with all that backing track with the live drums just didn't work for me, but that's the beauty of a studio versions with production making it sound as good as you like but as a live t...

Re: Dijon
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YznW5VAEvDQ White Stallion. Love that track. Brilliant live This is excellent! The legendary JJ Burnel giving it his all at the age of 70, its a joy to watch for me! It's so sad that Dave is not part of it, but what can we do? I'm still unsure about a Daveless Strang...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
it was great last night in Valenciennes.Really. I did the trip from Paris. Alone... Slept just near the station, I couldn't wait to go back to paris this morning... Valenciennes is not a very exciting city... I was seated in the second row, just in front of JJ. I thought they were going to start wi...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
They'll be wanting to play it as safe as possible to appeal to as many people as possible and to make as much money as possible, because that is ultimately what all of this is all about. Well let's remember the band haven't played live for what nearly 2 years? And never played without Dave, or with...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
I mean when Hugh plays Stranglers songs there is no JJ, Jet, or Dave. In fact there is no keyboard of any description. So he is just being a tribute of the real Stranglers, even though he doesn't call himself "The Stranglers". People go to Stranglers shows to see The Stranglers and I'd ar...

Re: French Tour Set Opener....
First impression is hardly a revelation, he has big shoes to fill, and the absence of Dave is painfully apparent, found it quite hard to watch to be honest… Yeah, although what is also painfully apparent - aside from the obvious absence of Dave, of course - is that it's a pretty professionally play...
