TFK

 

fixed

The answer is no

 

Fucking boring stuff you mean.

Stick to posting good tunes by Savoy Brown, Three Dog Night and Molly Hatchet. ::

 

It's actually outstanding stuff.

Three Dog Night and Molly Hatchet?

TFK

 

Dunno, I'd say it's more class than race (as with most things). Your average working class white would be less affected and annoying to watch than Michele Obama, I bet. Bunch of opticians and estate agents from milngavie and Newton mearns getting down, tho - 'look at me, I'm just off the wall! Isn't it hilarious how fun loving and sassy I am? Im a riot! I just don't care, look how much I don't care, look! Look!'

 

Not here it wouldn't ... Blues music is practically dead here, it's Amos n Andy shit for old white guys like TFK ... Howlin' Eddie Kazarinski and The Waterbury Tool and Die Crawdads ... "Got mah mojo woikin'!"

fucking lame

 

I actually went out to see the old fucks, UB40 last night.

Okay there are currently two bands officially calling themselves UB40. Out of the line up of eight that were together from 1979-2008, five have stayed with the original band (with Duncan Campbell as the new frontman) and three (Ali Campbell, Astro, and Mickey Virtue) have broken off and are also calling themselves "UB40." The spinoff was who I saw last night and my money is on that being the better option to see these days. Great show.

 

Sounds like a complicated court case

 

Yes and it is literally brother v brother.

Robin Campbell is the leader of the band that has always been UB40 and when Ali left in 2008, after a short stint with Maxi Priest as the lead vocalist on tour, they brought in the midddle brother, Duncan as the new lead vocalist.

Not only is Ali the younger brother of those two, he is no fan of the current line up. Before starting to tour and make records with this new version of UB40, he said "For five years I've sat back and watched my brother, Duncan, murder my songs."

 

The reason for the split was over accusations that the band's management company had been taking more money than they were allowed to under the contract. Mickey Virtue was the first to complain and investigate. The lead singer, Ali Campbell made the same complaint and they both split from the band soon after. In 2013, Astro left the band for the same reason.

 

I went to see them in 1980 when they toured in support of their debut album ´Signing Off´.
For such a new band they were great live and had a superb sound.

Before they went commercial-pop:

Well, I had to laugh when Ali said "he destroyed MY songs."

They've found a way to make a good living off of remaking old reggae classics and rearranging old pop hits.

The opening act last night was The Whalers. They had a lead vocalist that sounded just like Bob Marley. They sounded great.

 

Perfection ❤️

Shabazz Palaces are ok, I quite like them, but let's face it - SubPop are still living off being such a monumental force in the late 80's/early 90's. Their output now is nothing in comparison.

 

Still one of the best labels.

 

Argh pixies and death grips both sold out. MOTHERFUCKER

 

So fucking pissed off that's 3 of my fave bands. Need some website or ap to hear about these things quicker, reading the skinny and the list outside ticket scotland ain't cutting it. Only found out about these two midweek when a pal mentioned it. Actual fucking raging.

 

No Kim Deal.
No Pixies.

:nono:
