Manic Street Preachers - The Musical!

Sorry, my stupid laptop won't let me copy and paste the link (grrrrr!) but there's an article on Walesonline where it says they are definitely considering doing a musical! Should be interesting!

And with regards to the issue at hand...provided that, in their ever-increasing attempts to turn into Queen, they don't hire Ben bloody Elton to assist Patrick in script-writing then it could be OK I guess...

Oh please no! I don't want them to bastardize the Manics' like they did in "we will rock you" and "thriller live"!

I love a good musical like les miserablé or phantom... But rock operas? No, I refuse to wath we will rock you (not a huge queen fan anyway) and such.

If it means the songs will be played properly with the full strings and everything instead of the crap keyboards then that might be good.

Yes, but by grinning West End model types and session musicians. Awful.

Nope. I'd keep well away.


I'd rather keep each Manics song tied to it's own individual meaning, rather than associating them with 90 minutes of a tripe romanticised storyline.
