Ah, the irony. The source of all great humour.

And this coming from a man who was in a tribute band!!

I can't believe you're all thinking of going to watch this travesty. For fuck's sake, Adamson's bassplaying is the core of Magazine! I put him in the same league of importance as JJ. Would you go to see the Stranglers without JJ? Of course you would. You still go to see them without Hugh - I don't know why I bother.

I could see your point, except that they aren't on tour billed as a Magazine tribute band, which they should be - with only two original members left.

Three original members - John Doyle was in them during their classic 1978-81 period. And you can't really call them for not having John McGeoch on guitar. Why don't you go and see them and then make your judgement.

The new stuff sounds good - "Holy Dotage" is on their site and Marc Riley played a very rude song last night (it's on listen again). Sounds like classic Magazine with a contempary sound - I can't imagine it will set the world alight but to the likes of us it's most welcome.

Who gives a fuck? No one apart from the has been zimmerframe crowed like you 5 people.

Awwww poor Pidge Despite the many Metallica threads you've started on this forum over the years I'd guess that there's a fair few more interested parties in Magazine.

Also, I'm about 6 years older than you so you best start saving for that frame old man!

Haha, and I'm about 8 or 9 years younger than you Adam and you like a band who hit the big time in the same period as these. Sort it out

Brilliant, after the 'sensitive 6' we now have the 'Zimmerframe 5'.

Anyway, Jim do you have a link to Holy Dotage, I can't find it anywhere? No doubt it's my age you know.

Thanks Jim, Sounds like a really good track live to me. I'd already listened to the other track on the 6music website, makes 'Bring on the Nubiles' sound like a nursery rhyme. Surprised he was allowed to play it on early evening radio.
