gogul: that was a lovely little tune!!

Reverend & the Makers was a really good gig last night! Last song al the band went wild, then the singer got off stage & ran through the crowd & out onto the street & started jamming with his guitar singing Bob Marley etc. Huge crowd around him in the street! The police drove by to see what all the commotion was lol It was great! 

Jim Dandy: Hey guess what, Squeeze played the freshers ball when I started Uni in the 80's so they have a special place for me!! Thanks for that!

Im going to see Reverend and the Makers this week...has anyone seen them live & if so how was it?

Jim Dandy:

Mousetrap: Nice one! Hes a pretty good DJ aswell...Ive been to a few dance nights with him playing!

TexasToest: Now wouldnt that be a treat! I dont know if I would fall asleep though

awesome: ok after a little ponder on that Ive decided 1989 - 1994 is for me...

awesome: Love Bowie!!
Hmm Im not sure which 5 years I choose....Id have to think more about that! Would I choose for purely the great music or for sentimental value???

Jim Dandy: ooh yes please, send him to me!

Id never heard of Michael Penn before....sounds a very 80's track

Welcome Madmonkey! This is a great board....one of my faves!

Jim Dandy: Im sure you will look rather dashing! 

Jim Dandy: Hey enjoy your night in 'Vienna'! Let us know what it was like! Looks amazing....and free tickets are always a bonus!

Environment girl put a smile on my mush

rod03801: Thanks for posting that! Enjoyed it! Again from the Jools Holland show!!

Jim Dandy: Yes I pretty much agree, I really like Tainted Love & Wave Hello say Goodbye, thanks for that vid, I enjoyed that! I love the Jools Holland show too which that  performance was from.

 TexasToest: Yes thats what my friend said aswell, that he thought Marc Almond was suffering from possible exhaustion & over heating. Like I said though, he finished his performance & seemed ok, so thankfully all was well!
Ive never been to a gig where the performer collapses (or in this case nearly collapses) It must be scary for the audience aswell as everyone working on stage & back stage!

TexasToest: Yes! He finished the show & as far as I know seems to be fine!

My friend is repping a gig in London tonight for Marc Almond & they have just had to get the medics out to him as he has just nearly passed out on stage! Hes gone back on, very pale & not looking too good

SEAWOLF2: THANK YOU & A VERY MERRY XMAS TO YOU ASWELL!

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR SURGERY, HOPE YOU ARE BACK WITH US AGAIN SOON. TAKE CARE.

TexasToest: Hiya!! Well we had a fantastic  night out last night, Dreadzone were superb!! One of the support bands, Sicknote, were really great too! Lovely crowd there & another amazing thing was I got to meet one of my BK friends who I have been playing for about 4 years! It was just an awsome  night! 

Jim Dandy:

Jim Dandy: you can say that again! Its on till 3am! 

Jim Dandy: heres more about the gig this weekend...

http://Dreadzone as part of their “Love the Life” national tour and recent single release will be playing on Saturday 24th November. They have been described as a sound clash fusing technology with human rhythms; dub bass, dance beats, live breaks, rocking guitar and electronic soundscapes, held in check with a master class of MCing and the best reggae singer in the country. Supporting Dreadzone are the Anomalies, Sicknote and Cosmo. The Anomalies are a hip hop based band from Hereford that deliver danceable beats and uninhibited rhymes depicting a contemporary look at life as mates living it large and loud in suburbia and Sicknote are essentially funked-up epic electro punk guaranteed to blow the roof off. This is definitely not a gig to miss. 

Jim Dandy: Yes I love that one! Oh yesssssss I love love love dancing!!

Jim Dandy: Oh yes The Beat! Love them, Ive seen them live too!!

A friend from BK & myself are going to see this band on Saturday night.....I cant wait!!

TexasToest: just been chatting to a couple of friends about the Led Zep gig & apparently it sold out in less than an hour, phone lines were jammed! Theres some tickets going on eBay for between £700 & £1200!!! (double that figure for US $)

TexasToest: No Im not going, just put it there for info really....

TexasToest: Hi just ot home from the Beverley Knight concert! She was great! Loads of energy, passion, stage presence, and an amazing voice! Could really see & hear all the soul deva influences! I thought she was a cross between Whitney Houston & Tina Turner

TexasToest: WOW what an absolutely amazing instrument!! and so fantastically played, I enjoyed that very much, thanks!!

So glad Ive got the knack of links at long last! Yes now to learn the target thingymagigy!! lol

TexasToest: Yes I will definately let you know how it was. Shes on stage from 9.15 to 10.45 so I hope its an enjoyable hour & a half!! I wont see the support band because I wont be able to get there on time by the time I get my kids to bed etc. Not even sure who the support is?
Yes Im the same as you, my music taste is somewhat ecclectic, I like allsorts, its very varied, but there are certain sounds I dont like. Its how the mood takes you I suppose....

Hey did my link work for you to click on by the way???

TexasToest: Hey thanks for Tracy with the muppets!!
Yes, thank you, I need some computer training for sure! BUT! I think I may have the link situation sorted now??? Im going to see this lady tomorrow night.....(right keeping my fingers & toes crossed this works lol)

My friend is the tour rep so Im getting in free (which is always a bonus lol) Im looking forward to it because I havent been out on a night for a while with having my two little ones & I havent been to a gig for ages!!! Not my usual type of music but still looking forward to it!

Really enjoyed the Boogie Woogie Waltz too, great stuff!!

Ok Im testing out to see if I have clickable links for a chnge, keeping my fingers crossed to post this one!

This is the only gig I have been to where I wept....amazing woman!!!

TexasToest: Yes Ive since looked it up on the internet as I was intrigued, it seems it was a hoax (and from what Ive read I think so too) Now because of the advancement of the internet it has all been brought back up again. Interesting though!

Heres one site I was reading, if anyones interested.....

TexasToest: I hadnt even heard the Paul McCartney rumour before!

TexasToest: Yes I know what you mean.....when Im really old (if I get that far) I hope my mind goes first!

Jim Dandy - hahaha I wish that would happen to me, no chance though, small kids have a great knack at ageing me!!!!

Jim Dandy: well its legal to drink here at 18 so you can usually get away with it at 16...but shhh dont tell anyone! Time flys, that was over 20 years ago!!
Wish I knew an apt song to put a link to now.....lol

TexasToest: Age is just a number!
