Age...Year it doesn't really matter because there are no tribute members,the proper band as been said is in a way the same as saying the original band so yes i could buy that and their replacements too i can buy but not one man and his tribute band or friends is only how i see it.. but obviously everyone is totally entitled to think how they see and hear today's current line up.

The current line up may well being eyeing a 50th and what a magical milestone that would be but i could never see Hugh ever being anywhere near in sight of such an occasion.But if they make it it would be nice for people not to think it's a tribute celebration of the bands long and wonderful career in just my take on it.

Being pedantic (or maybe thick) here, but surely Baz - and possibly Toby - were born prior to that? :grin:

Baz was born in 1964 I think? Lt Kudu.
Guessing most of us on here are give or take few years around that age ....... I was born 1962 , so am in my late thirties now.......mentally ! Not ready for pensioner minded attitudes just yet .
Wonder when I get a bus pass🤔

Ha indeed, when The Lines came out I felt for the first time I was probably too young for the stranglers... :grin:

I do find myself sometimes envying older friends who can travel around for free, get into places at a reduced rate, that kind of thing, though on the latter I've been going grey since I was in my early twenties, and I've been offered a discounted ticket more than once. The cheek!
