So what are you listening to at the moment?

[williamalex1]

I'm saying nothing, I'm going to see Jason Donovan at the end of the month!!


















In fairness, it's the War of the Worlds stage show and I think he might be singing a wee bit during it.

My name is Bill and I admit to being persuaded to buy tickets then go see and LISTEN to Sydney Devine

 

[wrighty1874]

Mike Peters no longer sings with them. A guy called Simon Hough has taken over and I thought he was top notch. THey got a great reception from their first visit to Leamington, and said they'll definitely be back. Well worth £20.

They were fantastic in their day, not sure I can take to the new singer though, which is a shame as they play some terrific stuff.

 

[wrighty1874]

If you saw them last year then it was Mike Peters from the Alarm (68 Guns). This new guy from a few months ago sound just like Stuart Adamson.

I'm with c1973 on this, the band still play great but the vocals just aren't right for me. Went to see them last year & for the first time ever walked out early on a gig, it was spoiling the memories of previous performances.

Early Nu Metal for me, Korn, Fear Factory etc.

Yesterday was Devin Townsend's new disc - Z2. Today, Dream Theater.

Dull morning writing reports - eased the pain with a tour of late 80's metal, then onto Seether, Slipknot, 5 finger Death Punch and topped off by Glen Campbell. Lovely.

If you like Slipknot you might like (or at least appreciate) my lads band Actions to Onslaught

At the moment - a bit different from the aforementioned I'm listening to Fotheringay - lead singer the sumptuous Sandy Denny

Wow, they're tremendous! Really like the track in the link and I'm working my way through the others whilst I write Some excellent writing, musicianship and production there... Most impressed.


What role does your lad have?

p.s. Haven't heard Fotheringay for ages; nearest I've been to Sandy Denny's stuff for a while is listening to Fairports 'Meet on the Ledge' at the end of Cropredy

Saw Asia at Shepherds Bush Empire last Sunday, so catching up on some of their albums on vinyl.

Any of the originals in the lineup Rich ?
They used to be the bees knees when I was 17, but part from one or two, they really have dated poorly I think

Was listening to Whitesnake Live in the Heart of the City last week, that stands the test of time

 

[sev112]

I even had a back stager to meet and greet Sir Bob after. Was a major factor in swerving. I see Toyah is playing a small venue in Reading in February. Tempted

What kind of small venue ?
Actually she s prob another you don't want to see now as it will per entry damage happy memories etc

Okay, might give them another run then, thanks for that.

Three originals, Wetton, Downes and Palmer.:thup: New guitarist who must be about 25 !!!!


They were really good, Wetton's voice was much better than I was expecting. All the old stuff, plus a couple of new ones. My 20 year old daughter loved them.

My lad is the hardcore vocalist and part-lyricist. The link is to a track off their new album - they've just recently been signed by a US label - more to promote them their rather than organise tours yet. Lots of good musicianship going in in there. You'll of course find them on Facebook etc

I only found the eponymous Fotheringay album today in a charity shop. Beautiful and what a voice Sandy Denny has/d - so sad she died so young (31)
