[kj] Opening Track

[Jim Harper]

You're certainly not the first person to argue that the Mission were crap after Children, but I rather liked Carved in Sand. There were a few half-decent tracks on Grains of Sand too, but only one on Masque: 'Who Will Love Me Tomorrow', the one Hussey wrote with the guy from the Wonderstuff.

One could argue that the Mission's first truly crap album was CARVED IN SAND, but that did have "Deliverance" on it, at least.

Youth remixed a track and Jaz produced strings for another, both of them on the Mission's first truly crap album, Masque. I mentioned this to Jaz in 2003 and he said it was the first he'd heard of it. 
 
Mark Thwaite has been an on/off member of the Mission for years, and he was also a member of Mob Research with Raven.

who´s the performer and what´s the name of the song that KJ uses alongside Blade Runner´s Main Theme before going onstage?

last week I saw a The Mission concert on video from Bochun in 2005 and they used the same song (without BR´s Main Theme) before going onstage. Someone knows if they do have any connection with Youth or Killing Joke (as far as I remenber Youth did a mix on one of their singles, but don´t know which one)

Joy Division supporting Buzzcocks in Blackburn - can't remember much about this.
Gang Of Four supporting The Rezillos (It think) - watched a couple of song - thought they were not up to much and went back to the bar - oh dear.

If only I had a time machine.

Listen to you lot! ;-)

There are some fucking great local bands here in the UK. 
Problem is the default position from the fans is " it's not our band so......."

Some of the "local" Oxford bands did ok I guess. Radiohead......supergrass........watch out for little fish too. 


When Kj supported joy Division they would have been seen as a bunch of no hopers by some. 

Go to the gig. Have a beer. Open your ears and shut the fuck up....;-)

Chances are, yes, they will all be godawful. All local bands being picked by the local promoters. Guarantee KJ are not hand-picking these bands. If they have any sense at all, they'll be comfortable on their bus or in the backstage area while the local yokels bore us all to tears. I swear to god, I've spent more time in my life waiting for bands to stop playing than anything else.

US openers are all locals. Interesting the label didn't send anyone, but that costs money. =
