And the one where he tells people not to work in Starbucks

A were shit but I’m going to shit my pants seeing Vex Red and HIFH on the same night. I’d completely forgotten Vex Red existed, to be honest.

I’m all for these kind of 90s/00s Britrock bands taking a week off their day jobs to reform every now and again. It’s quite sweet.

has everyone forgiven ves red (including themselves) for imploding like a bunch of absolute numpties then? seemed pretty acrimonious at the time.

Cheers, got tickets to Manchester.

Would have loved to go to the Nottingham gig and relive my Rock City under-18s night days but can’t really do a midweek trip :frowning:

got tickets to Glasgow.

I’ve seen them play it in full before at the Barfly in Glasgow a long fucking time ago, maybe around the time of Transmit Disrupt?

#62

Think I was at that show. Wasn’t that their farewell tour? Excellent nonetheless, can’t wait to see them again.

#63

Ooooooooooooh! Album that still holds up. Portsmouth sounds tip top.

#64

I don’t know if it was; it felt like a surprise for me, I had no idea it was going to be an album show. it might have been billed as a farwell show, I’m not sure. it’d say it was around 2007, so maybe?

#65

Ah wait, misread your post, I didn’t see them do a full album show. Definitely saw their last show before breakup at the barfly though and it was amazing. Would have been around 07 though.

The comment from Ringo on the website :smiley:

“I started in the late nineties with my computer art. While I was touring it gave me something to do in all those crazy hotels you have to stay in on the road. In its way ‘Pop’ art is always changing-like ‘Pop’ artists. Its a natural move of things like pop music and even Popeye the Sailor Man.”

I do not understand what the last sentence means

The typo really makes it.

Bumpy bump.

I’m listening The Neon Handshake now. Good god, it’s brilliant. How has this aged so well compared to it’s contemporaries?! Man. These guys should have been as big as Deftones.

I think the production dates it a bit, but a lot of the songs are still massive.

Got absolutely shafted by their label though didn’t they? Similar story to Hundred Reasons. That was such an exciting time for British music, which I though was gone for good but bands like Black Peaks, Puppy and Marmozets give me hope that we could see a similar thing happening again this year.
