Sorry Steve. Cant agree. He was carp long before that. The previous season he had got progressively worse and I feel you and others were misled by one good game against Liverpool. We had a better chance of staying up because of the ban.
This has been borne out by his career since, which plummeted lower than Saints even did.
Very surprised to read this. I've seen them several times in the last 10 or so years and Guy Garvey has been one of the more "chatty" frontmen I've seen. Usually explains the songs. Makes jokes about the others in the band.
Everybody has a bad day, I guess.
I would nominate Van Morrison at The Gaumont circa 84. Obvious from the start that he had the hump and walked off mid-song after only 20 mins. his band looked lost and followed him off acouple of minutes later.
Reading your posts, Mr Alpine-Lite, makes me want to climb into a hot bath, slit my wrists, overdose and tie a polythene bag over my head. Unfortunately, I've got to drive my mates to Villa in an hour, so will you do it for me instead.
Thanks.
The Tubes. Gaumont 1978 and 79.
Led Zep. Southampton University 1973.
Any Peter Gabriel concert, solo or with Genesis.
Any of the 14 times I've seen James (particlarly Skate Guildhall 1993 supported by Radiohead and 2011 at Albert Hall).
He was seen at the weekend with Danny Fox and their families, in their local. He was still limping and when asked how long was he out, said " it will be 2/3 weeks at least."
