You GnR fans know why they are always late on stage?

Go on then…?

That Petrol Emotion would be nice.
The proper CuD , not the one with the guitarist who couldn’t hack it a while back

O.p.- I work with a fella who used to manage/help out the Neph.
We still laugh about the flour.

The Wildhearts [are] the most experienced reformers of all time

I’ve got Terrorvision on the phone, they’d like a word.

I assume they’re just calling to agree?

😀

The Wildhearts are in my Top One Bands of All Time, but Ginger doesn’t really need to reform them, does he? His solo gigs are packed with Wildhearts tunes, being played by ex-Wildhearts, to crowds of Wildhearts fans. And then there’s his solo stuff, including this:

Which hit it’s target in 6 hours, rather than the 6 months he was hoping for.

But yes, the Wildhearts will reform anyway. That’s what they do.

Sorry, forgot about that.
It’s because Axl Rose is a complete prick. He just keeps the rest of the band waiting… because he can. (MrsDezB did some work for them)

Well, others (even Axl) have used the word “eccentric”. Slash described “…his mind just works in different inexplicable ways than other peoples…”

So he’s eccentric, thinks he’s one of the biggest stars in rock history (well, he is). I was still happy to wait 2hrs to see them. I’d waited 10/15 years so another 2 hours wasn’t gonna trouble me TBH.

Crucial Three

Maybe I’d feel differently if I didn’t think GnR were absolute crap, but to treat the people who’ve put you where you are with such disdain… he also won’t let any other band members near him until they are onstage.
Flies to gigs in a separate private jet from them too.
But, there you go, each to their own eh? 🙂

because he can

That’s the biggest anticlimax I’ve heard since my Uncle bought a job lot of Viagra. I was waiting for some insider gossip there, rather than confirmation of what everyone knew anyway.

Well, yeah, alright, in Terrorvision’s case it just feels like they’ve reformed more times than Spinal Tap’s had drummers.

Mate of mine’s a big fan of the Wildhearts, so I get all the Ginger related news sort of by reverse osmosis.

Thanks Cougar, I aim to please 🙂

Didn’t realise the wildhearts were so popular. I have the mondo akimbo cd single which I have never played is it sought after?

Cougar- have to hand it to Terrorvision, they might not reform as often as some, but they do it with unparalleled jawdropping cheek. Last ever gig ever! EVER!

Zippy- the vinyl was pretty desirable but I think the CD never really became very collectible. Might be worth trying their forum, WHs fans tend to be mental obsessives.

Freakishly, I once saw GNR come on stage late and it wasn’t Axl’s fault. Never to be repeated gig-going experience that.

Bands that should reform that might actually be decent?

Talking Heads

fIREHOSE (except I’ve read rumours they are reforming this year…)

Im embarassed! I thought phil anselmo was original. Feel a proper plank now. 😳

I know, I’ve been to all of them, and (literally) bought the t-shirt. Bastards. (-:

Pink Floyd
The Jam
Specials (original members)
All bands I love but I’m was too young to see when they were about.
At least I got the see The Who a few years ago.

Faithless

Pink Floyd. Ah well going to see the Australian Pink Floyd Show next month 8)

ace of base from early 90’s 😉

A band who did get recognition but badly need to get their shit together is At the drive in / the Mars Volta. If the bloke who left and is not in the Volta could just get back in and sort Omar out you’d be looking at the best rock band on the planet. Think they’re too far gone for that to happen though.

Finger on the pulse me 😳
As it was written so it has come to pass – At the Drive in reforming for a couple of dates in the US in the spring. Hopefully will be a success and do some stuff over here.

Wishbone Ash, would very much like to hear some of the stuff from Argus again, not from two different bands though

Buddy Holly?

Reform nah, the nostalgia just wouldn’t be the same.

The Beta Band.

Sabbath at download this year minus bill,shame.

Iron Maiden with Paul Dianno

+1, Bruce Dickinson era is shite in comparison. I prefer the punky kind of edge they had with Dianno.

Fields Of The Nephilim are at Sonisphere this year. also, I would put money on Bill Ward being at Download. I’ve got a feeling it may be their last live performance in that line up.

S-Club Seven
Busted
2-Unlimited

On a serious note I would like to see some new material from The Jesus and Mary Chain. But with the original line up (I know they are still going in some form or another)

The Incredible String Band.

the macc lads

Venom – the proper lineup with Cronos, Mantas and Abaddon.
