I remember seeing Culture Club just after they went to No 1 with 'Do You....' and they played for 40 mins (the album), 2 follow up repeats from the set. Got slagged for saying good night, came back and played the first 40 mins again. No encore.
Not Ali. His brothers (although one has had to retire due to ill health). Seen both versions and I liked the other lot more than Ali.Ali Campbell ? Where are they on at ?
Good to know they are still going, I saw them supporting the police in around 1984 at emperess ballroom- brilliantChina crisis

Highest point should be good this year, I went 3 years or so ago Alabama 3, grand master flash and although I’m not into them sister sledge were very goodJames, Lancaster, Scarborough and Birmingham. You always get a different set list every time they play and they are brilliant live, so why not!
Saw them about 3 years ago and they were brilliant, had to go again. If you can get tickets then you must.Public service broadcasting- amazing, glad you mentioned them I’ll have to get to that one, I’ve not seen them live
Thought about going to see Dry Cleaning myself Dave. I was hoping they would play Cambridge but they missed us.Dry Cleaning - London Forum ( be 4th time )
Destroyer - Earth London
The Damned - Apollo London
Flaming Lips - London Forum
Van Der Graff Generator - Palladium London
Juniore - Bush Hall London
Amion Duul 11 - Jazz Cafe London
all revised dates except the first..its been a long wait to have my ears bleed again.
Dry Cleaning are the only band to see..they are so good! ( though gig wait is March 2022 !!! ) Glad you liked Flaming Lips, what a show eh ? Van der graff were stunning a few years ago..considering Hammill has had a heart attack, he walked around the band in a circle and sang his heart out for the entire show..v powerful stuff in there...and of course the Damned with all original members ..should take me back to 1976 when I saw em .. garden's come up great again..and taller !Thought about going to see Dry Cleaning myself Dave. I was hoping they would play Cambridge but they missed us.
Flaming Lips are absolutely ace live, gutted they aren't playing here this time.
Damned is the original line up so that will be great too.
Van Der Graff Generator!!!! 'kin hell Dave, that's a blast from the past!!
How's the garden going??
It was actually at the opera house GB and I enjoyed CC far more than the Police.Good to know they are still going, I saw them supporting the police in around 1984 at emperess ballroom- brilliant
Foals in Blackpool and if anyone fancies some new raw talent, She Drew the Gun at Bootleg is one not too be missedNow that captain bumble has said concerts can go ahead after July 19th, what gigs have you got lined up?
I've got:
Circa waves & red rum club liverpool
Red rum club Preston
Blossoms & lathums in Manchester

Ah yes- the memory isn’t the best, gIt was actually at the opera house GB and I enjoyed CC far more than the Police.
Considering I was a massive fan, I was really let down at that gig
ah yes - the memory isn’t the best, I thought the police were brilliant to be honest although they were first big band I’d seen live so that went a long way to sway me slightly I suppose , I remember Andy summer’s mentioning he’d lived in poulton at some point, although as I got the venue wrong you’ve got me wondering now!It was actually at the opera house GB and I enjoyed CC far more than the Police.

No you're right re Andy Summers.Ah yes- the memory isn’t the best, g

Exactly- one positive that’s come out of all this pandemic is how much we will appreciate going back to gigs/ football and the rest, can’t say I’ve felt massively let down in my expectations at a gig but slightly with Bowie at Maine rd on the glass spider tour, only because he didn’t play a lot of his really early stuff, I’ll never forget him being lowered down in that massive glass spider so theatricaly brilliant, Paul weller at the emperess ballroom ( I think!) seemed like he couldn’t really be arsed & didn’t do an encour ( spelt wrong I’m sure)No you're right re Andy Summers.
As pleased as you were with the gig with it being your 1st I think I'd built it up in my mind it was going to be awesome as I loved the police at the time and it didn't quite get upto expectations.
I can say the same about the Cure too but they're the only two I've been really let down over.
At the end of the day you cant beat live music, cant wait to get back
