Jammer

Spindrift. Saw them on Friday and they were stunning, great songs and performance. Other to look out for are The Method and The Gen

I was up there with Blue Gum Ears but only heard on Saturday when we arrived at the Inverness gig. Seemingly he was sleepwalking in the hostel and opened the window of his room. Fell 30ft. The last I heard was that he's supposed to be stable but sedated. I and all BGE wish him a speedy recovery.

Eh, what Chris Henderson got to do with it?

Off the top of my head The Method BGE Chris Henderson The Gen Spindrift Oh and SEA are fae Elgin

A bit like your spelling

James - Sit Down yup another one but worse still the one he wails in the chorus...is that Laid Indeed anything with Tim Booth singing

It makes my skin crawl

The Walk of LIfe - Dire Straits Summer of 69 - Bryan Adams We Built This City - Starship Closest Thing To Crazy - Kate Melua Anything by The Darkness

Which part of this is anything but negative?

Or Moray even....thanks for the first of the cynical responses. Scotland eh what a land of happy campers. Personally I think it's a great promotional opportunity for Scottish bands from the North but hey.....

Sid Vicious, Jackson Browne, James Brown, Ike Turner, Jerry Lee Lewis, Phil Spector, Jim Morrison etc etc etc oh yea and Eric Clapton (racist ramblings in the 70s) Lemmy (Nazi memomrabilia) Queen, Rod Stewart and Status Quo played Sun City etc etc etc Rock stars are generally fucked up and do bad things but if pursue the goody good images like Cliff they are ridiculed too. This thread has really went off on one. Oh how happy and innocent us music people are

I've got an Amon Duul II track on a compilation LP somewhere and it was one of the best tracks. I could have swore it was on the Age of Atlanic compilationwith Delanie & Bonnie, Led Zep, Allman Bros, Vanilla Fudge etc. but I just checked online and it isn't ...weird

Yup he is but he's lost his accent after being down south so long..

Well I don't like post Fish Marillion (apart from After Me which is superb) but I will no doubt get an earful of the Fish CD when I next visit the postie in Keith

Hear hear. The P&J and EE suck for music coverage. Cheers for typing it
