Skids Tour 2018
Anyone seen them or going? Always liked the singles, but became a bit of a fan after tonight's gig in Cardiff, really impressed, not a bad tune for me, including the new stuff.

Saw them Friday in Frome, also going to Bilston and SBE.
The best live band around for me at the moment.

Re: Skids Tour 2018
me and 2 mates went to the recording of their roundhouse show last year and they were outstanding. jobbo didn't stop bouncing all night. they used to take a bit of slagging in the old days....mainly due to some of the clothes RJ would wear. fashion must be just as important as the music for some people
Re: Skids Tour 2018
What's their best album?
Re: Skids Tour 2018
Apart really from Joy, all of them.
For me as a long time fan it's The Absolute Game.

Cheers I'll give them a listen.
Re: Skids Tour 2018
I think if you done a poll on the best skids album, the highest percentage would go to Days In Europa

I loved The Skids when I was a kid, 'Into The Valley' was me fave and still is, a fantastic choon and great riff from Stuart Adamson. Never seen em live and don't think I ever will, I just can't imagine them without Stuart I guess.
He was a bloody great guitar player (and seriously influenced by Yorkshires finest Mr Bill Nelson) and the only time I saw him was when Big Country performed before The Stranglers at the Reading Festival back in 1983. Which was nice.

Shush this is serious
