Still never really listened to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still never really listened to them I've had a drink with them a couple of times, including crashing the green room at a couple of gigs. They are a life affirming chaos. So many great gig stories around them and the crowd they attract. I've mentioned before that I'm not a completist, deliberately so. But this band is the closest I've ever got to having everything I can find. Can't even say that about The Jam or Super Furries. Jam was like a religion back in the day. I don't currently have All Mod Cons, Setting Sons, Snap and a few other things. These guys, A3, I look at the merch stall and I think, I've got more than they have. Outdoor gig in Chepstow Castle next. I'll be there. Following day already marked down as lost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met Nick Reynolds this year. Nice guy. Not a deep muso like your other mate, Kev. It's a wider Psych tinged Western genre thing for Nick, not just the sonics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I've spoken to Nick a couple of times, I was helping myself to his vodka and he took exception to my pink shoes! All in good spirit really, but having Nick Reynolds in your face ranting about your shoes and sexuality is quite an experience. Rob I've spoken to a couple of times in bars before and after gigs, he's fine but I think he can get a bit heavy on the substances some times. Jake, love him, he's a space cadet he's got us in for free a couple of times and will happily tell anyone the secret guest list name to drop at the door. Piers isn't in the band anymore, but he's the holder of a vast body of unreleased remixes and stuff so I've buddied up with him on the interweb! Sent me a stack of stuff and I **** lost it in a laptop upgrade. I'm sounding like I'm well in with them, I'm not, that's taken years of stalking! Anyway, on with the show. It's ladies day at Chez P I've had to ship the last of her records in to storage, so I've bought her a 'best of' CD. Today, there was a whole section set up for @mjmooney 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones I haven't got are "Are You Passionate" and "Chrome Dreams II" and "Broken Arrow" (if that's what the one on the bottom row middle is). Way too expensive.

chrisp65 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'd have to confess we've been playing that double CD of the Eagles most of the day (it's basically the Hotel California album plus other stuff) and every track I think, yeah I like that one, that one's ok, this one is good. But I wouldn't describe myself as liking The Eagles. Band name and genre snobbery on my part I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CL Smooth was amazing and should have been a lot bigger, a great MC. I actually saw the two live in London last year and it was one of the best live performances I've seen, CL was amazing, still has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
