Yes some get offended by swearing and yeah he can banter well,the thing is he gets knocked here and there and some think he's a poor tribute act which is fine it's peoples right to say what they think and how they feel when maybe he sings the MK1 material i get that but post'90 they are a band writing new material way away from anything like what Hugh ever did with the band and for decades now they have been doing their own thing so Baz should be merited on post '90 material having been in the band now longer than Hugh was,so i have more than appreciated his imput as a guitarist and as a vocalist who is nothing like Hugh on both fronts hes a completely different styled guitar player to Hugh and i wish he just got his credit for what he has done for over two decades with this band that's all i'm saying and not comparing him to a former frontman who hasn't been in the band for over 32 years now,judge him on today's material and playing which i think is very good indeed,but as usual each to their own on the forum.Greatkudu wrote: ↑08 Apr 2022, 22:12Baz used to play in my hometown of Salisbury quite a bit when he used to live in Frome, a more friendly down to earth chap you wouldn't find, he does great banter to, it makes me laugh that some places he plays dont like he his swearing ? Really are people that easily offended, I'm offended my racism, violence against women and the barbaric bastards who are committing war crimes in Ukraine, when I worked for the Army, even the C word was used, I find Baz very funny when he swears, JJ uses the F word still as does Hugh sometimes, but some people must lead very sheltered lives, I remember a few years ago ago a social worker being offended as I said I was pissed off, she said your using offensive language, I should of said narr Arff.

I think we are all missing the point - which is that as the band itself starts winding down and ceases performing or recording, Baz needs to start forging a new career for himself, and the branding and marketing on this poster indicates the direction he is likely to take - best of luck to him!

I did think the same. I guess he could earn a fairly decent income doing thiscassini wrote:I think we are all missing the point - which is that as the band itself starts winding down and ceases performing or recording, Baz needs to start forging a new career for himself, and the branding and marketing on this poster indicates the direction he is likely to take - best of luck to him!

Baz will always have an income, he wants to get into production, obviously the Stranglers are now in the final phase,last full tour, but when they do finally call it a day, the fact he was a Strangler will always get him openings. I wish him all the best, I think the Stranglers have about 2 more years and they will finally finish, there is nothing left to achieve now, they have gone out with a really good album, so that's it.

I reckon they're gonna pull out another one before the curtain closes. It seems a lot of effort has been put into getting JJ & Baz home studios.
