 I love you stole the sun ...that would be on my list to play someone . From the holy bible first tracks have to be Faster and This is yesterday. That album took ages for me to get into and I was a fan already. He should've asked us how to proceed

Been thinking about a video I saw of Repeat, I think 1993 at Phoenix festival? Does anyone have this at all? It use to be on YouTube but I can’t find it. Thanks!

It use to be on YouTube but has since gone. I remember James starting the song with shut the f*** up you fat c***, now this is a little school lesson for you, repeat after me, f*** your queen and your country . Great version.

The James and Sean autographs look similar to other ones on line, the third one doesn't look like it says Nicky, Wire or anything similar!
I'll be interested about the story behind having them write "Disco dancing with the rapists and how the band responded to being asked to write that lyric for them!

Actually, although I still struggle to see how it says Nicky it seems comaprable to other signatures

Got the answer... Hi Rob, my mate was an area manager for o2 so we used to go to a lot of o2 arena gigs, met the band, said I had only recently just got into them and always liked wierd way out lyrics since a kid especially some of the beatles stuff, they asked what was their stand out lyrics and I think I seriously misquoted them, think someone said something in Welsh and laughed then they wrote that down.

None of these signatures look real to me, youd expect one of the three to be in sync with how they usually are
If I didnt see it done with my own eyes I wouldnt believe it
