Not sure what my old man will make of that, he likes both the Mac and Crowded house. I guess it’s not the first time they’ve been without Buckingham. I don’t mind them. I know the hits, as everyone does. There’s been a couple of decent documentaries about them, there was a pretty good one about Peter Green a while back. Don’t know why, but I always find Christine McVie to be the most interesting one. Peter Green was the most interesting one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody remembers the version that came AFTER the departure of Peter Green, Jeremy Spencer and Danny Kirwan, and BEFORE the arrival of Buckingham and Nicks: Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Christine McVie, Bob Welch, Bob Weston, Dave Walker. I saw them live, and they were bloody good. Edited April 10, 2018 by mjmooney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last time Lindsey left he was replaced by two guitarists as well, Billy Burnette and Rick Vito. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing Finn's there mainly for the singing, and Campbell for the lead guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted April 10, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) I always find it interesting when well known musicians join an established band for a tour or an album. Midge Ure comes across as a very likeable chap in this clip as he cheerfully describes himself as the worst guitarist Thin Lizzy ever had.

snowychap Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 If people are concerned about our criminal justice system being stretched to buggery, we might take notice that the following is happening: Four men summonsed to court over calling England head coach Eddie Jones a ‘baldy c***’ Quote Four men have been summonsed to appear in court after being reported for an alleged public order offence after England head coach Eddie Jones was verbally abused on his way back from Scotland during the Six Nations in February. Jones travelled alone on two train journeys – one from Edinburgh to Manchester to join Sir Alex Ferguson at a Manchester United match and another from Manchester back to London – on 25 February, the day after England’s 25-13 Calcutta Cup defeat by Scotland, in which he claimed to have been both verbally and physically abused by Scotland supporters. A video emerged on social media of the 58-year-old Australian outside Manchester Oxford Road station where he was asked by a group of four men for a photograph. Two of the men in question were seen with alcoholic drinks in their hand, and started to taunt Jones about the defeat the day before. As Jones got into a waiting car, one of the men was heard to shout "what about last night you baldy c***" at him, before re-opening the door to continue the abuse. On Tuesday, British Transport Police said that the four men, three of which are from Edinburgh aged 22, 23 and 25, and a 25-year-old from South Queensferry near Edinburgh, have been summonsed to appear at Manchester and Salford Magistrates’ Court on 16 May. What an utter crock of shit. Stupid waste of time and money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid waste of time and money. Interesting you say that, I had a similar thought today regarding police resources. I have just driven to Swindon and back. I've seen a total of 8 police cars, sat at roadside/in lay-bys/on bridges, waiting for speeding drivers. Of course this is all down to the preservation of public safety and not in any way pushing resources towards revenue generation, or for an 'easy nick' on the figures. Only a cynic would think something like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's what the 4 blokes were basically saying, too . We should never have lost the Rugbying matches to that other lot, so be careful or you'll be biting a pillow in E-Wing before you can say "sack the word removed" if you carry on like that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mjmooney Posted April 18, 2018 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2018 There's nothing quite like that moment when a two year old locks you out of the house. Mild panic ensues. Solution (requires the use of a cat flap): 1. Unpick the plastic locking device on the cat flap. 2. Call two-year old over to the cat flap. 3. Ask her to go to the hall table, find grandma's keys, and bring them back to the cat flap. 4. Take keys and unlock door. 5. Make note to self for future reference to always carry keys or leave a door on the latch. It was a lucky thing she was in a co-operative mood, and didn't just go "Tee hee" and head for the drinks cabinet... 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
