It was just brilliant from the off. I saw them a fair bit in the 80's> and once when Hugh had left as a five piece and they were dour so have not> seen them apart from in HMW for nearly 20 years. But this tour is billed as> a Greatest Hits tour and due to Jets health I believe their last - he is 70> now, so it was a real temptation given their last two excellent lps. They> were just brilliant, so brilliant I nearly cried seriously. Baz Warne is a> really good guitarist and singer, Jet managed to play as opposed to the drum> tech who stands in if he is not up to it and got sung too on at least three> occasions. JJ is still great to watch and my fav all time bass player.> Always loved his sound and the way he does that walk and leg thing -> brilliant.> > If you are going on the tour don't look below but we got:> > Grip, Hanging Around, Peaches, Tank, Sleazy, Five Minutes, walk On By, No> More Heroes, Raven, Duchess, Nuclear Device, Skin Deep, Thrown Away, All of> the Day.., Spectre Of Love, Always The Sun and god knows how many others -> it was relentless classics and I spent the most of it leaping around with> the other 1500+ 40 yo nostalgists there but who cares when everyone just> seemed to be so happy. One of the best gigs I have been to in years and in> terms of old punksters it surpassed the SLF and The Selector tour a coupla> years ago. Roll on the Buzzcocks in Wolvo next year!! > > thanks for update do you know when they are coming to london?> _______________________________________________> Gathering mailing list> Gathering at misera.net> http://four.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/gathering
