SLF

Know for a fact I wasn't the only BHA at the Concorde2 last night.

Thought they were up to their usual high standard and quite liked the new stuff they did. Also nice to go to a gig where there wasn't hundreds of spotty kids blocking the view of the stage recording inaudible videos on their mobile phones.

Only caught the end of Chelsea, and his voice was dying. Were they any good?

Good to see the Concorde busy as well, last few times I've been there it's been quite quiet and it would be a shame to see a cracking little venue like that go down the pan.

Is Gene October still the front man? He wanted me to go backstage with him. I was quite cute when I was younger

Quite, blimey, I saw them in about 1982 at the Top Rank. "Right to Work", how apt during current climes.

I was also at SLF....very enjoyable...first saw them about 30 years ago...good tunes but the lyrics are odviously dated these days

 

[Sweeney Todd]

I saw Stiff Little Fingers in Oxford last Saturday.

Thought it was a good evening all round.

Gene October reminds me a bit of Mick Jagger (looks and stage mannerisms).
His other jobs have included being a Brighton binman and pornstar - obviously sometime ago!

Nonsense. If you stop enjoying them, just don't go and see them. Sorted.

To me Punk was about being young and angry in the late 70's. I was a big fan of Chelsea. Not a punk band I know but a few years back I went to see Spear of Destiny in a local pub. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry watching 40 somethings moshing. Some still wearing shirt and ties after coming straight from work.

So, that's what it was to you. So stop going.
