Ah, sorry about that!

Actually I'm just not that familiar with Rush, like what I have, which is the first album, 2112, Grace Under Pressure and Moving Pictures (Tom Sawyer is very good) but that's about all I know. Marillion always had the edge for me for the seediness. Of course they ain't a prog band anymore so they keep claiming in between their ten minutes songs. (If prog was suddenly fashionable they'd probably issue a very different press statement.)

Which DVD and Cds did you just get Mordred?

(Currently listening ta Field of Crows by Fish!)

What the fucks with the Rush and Marillion usernames' date=' Progs dead dudes :D

....this coming from someone that just got a delivery of Marillion cd's and a dvd today :O[/quote']

Our guitarist Cammy's username is Bytor.

Don't suppose anyone who isn't into Rush will have a fuckin' clue what we're on about!!

Aha' date=' it's a small world (wouldn't wanna paint it) but whenever I go past that place in Keith I think of Marillion apparently playing there once or twice. When Fish lived in Fochabers he said Keith was where he discovered Rush and got a knife pulled on him at the Royal Hotel. That'll be Keith "the friendly town" then.[/quote']

The Friendly Town!! Who's bright idea was that! :D

I remember that, it was actually The Seafield Hotel which is no more! Shame, cos it was a great place for bands to play in!

Keith's not that bad if you know who to avoid, same as any other town i suppose!

Will most definitely be going to Keith Chaos Live, no question!

I never have a problem in Keith and like the sleazier hotels cos whenever I get the train back up I usually stop off for one in there while I'm waiting for a lift up the road. It's not as bad as Buckie! Even Fochabers is pretty friendly these days, although its a brave fella that dwells too long in Portgordon.

Aye it was a great night, he fell through during Inextremis, i remember Simonsaid from the stage get him down, then some bright spark tried to grab his leg and pull him through.

To this day i have no idea how he managed to climb onto the roof, he was blazing on whiskey long before we even got to Keith. :cheers:

Now those were the days :D

Just noticed that, strange that Keith appears to be the Rush capital of the U.K. :D
