6music rolling thread

Thought about them for the first time in years the other day and added Lightning Blue Eyes to my running playlist yesterday, and my husband’s just put that album on in the car and I’m feeling very Truman Show now seeing this post

First two albums great. Saw them around the time of the second album. Drummer was immense. Had the biggest kick drum I’ve ever seen. Was very sad Benjamin Curtis dying so young.

I know nothing about that place other than Alex Kapranos was born there!

We saw Franz Ferdinand in Bristol recently and he changed a couple of lyrics to reference Almondsbury during the evening!

That was one! “This is what I am, I’m an Almondsbury man…”

Being telepathic with Alex Kapranos was not what I had on my 2026 bingo card but it is probably a good thing - after all, the next World War will probably be prevented by this Franz Ferdinand

Just played his new one and, well, let’s just say I was compelled to find and quote this post.
