[Deutsch Wolf]

A man who is tired of hearing Nick Knowles massacre popular songs is tired of life itself.

 

[PPB]

Says that is not available to me in this country. Should I be thankful?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Very much so. Possibly even worth you cancelling your plans to move back to sunny Codsall.

 

[The Bear]

That's up there with a Del Woppio cover.

Oh no its not

One of my favourite songs from my album of the year. Incredible talent and absolutely immaculate live.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

A Farewell to Kings by the incomparable Rush. 40 years young, but as good as ever.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

Just seen that Reef, The Wildhearts & Terrorvision are touring together next year. That would be an ace gig!

Pity I don't have the time or money to go to concerts any more :icon_sad:

apparently they're all playing full sets too.
also announced today are iron maiden shows for next august.
i'd be tempted for both for nostalgia reasons (especially as I've just finished bruce dickinsons autobio), but like you, am unlikely to be able to afford it.
fwiw, there is a brum venue for reef/wildhearts/terrorvision, but it is outdoors.

Saw Nothing but Thieves again at the O2 last night. Absolutely incredible live performers, never heard a voice live as good as Conor's.

Think the deutsch may have been onto something. The telegraph certainly think so:

Verdict: The sarky Twitter comments and Amazon reviews say it all: “Why does Nick Knowles sing with a Texan accent?”, “Sounds like a drunk at a Christmas party”, “I urge other daytime DIY TV personalities to put down the hammer and pick up the harmonica.”

Following on from this, Bob Mortimer has tweeted his effort for a Christmas stocking filler:

Morrissey appears to be going down the "they were asking for it" route vis weinstein et al.
Incredibly crass.
