JDB was on bbc just now with the Beautiful South (from around ‘97 I’d say, judging from JDBs look) - they sang Old Red Eyes Is Back, and it sounded great ��

From Despair To Where played on Radcliffe and Maconie this morning.

Less concrete but possibly department. Pick of the Pops goes to 2001 at 2pm.
Atomic Kitten, Jakatta, Nelly Furtado and Outkast. Imagine they could fit the Manics in there somewhere?

EDIT: started off with Dancing In The Moonlight. This is going to be a grim listen
Edit EDIT: Nope! But at least they're on TV tonight.

Tonight's final round question on Pointless was name an artist that had a number one single between the Spice Girls' first and last (i.e. 1996 to 2000).

Frustratingly they didn't say if the Manics actually was a pointless answer. Or if my other two guesses of the Prodigy and Run DMC were successful guesses.

Now Playing@6Music had a Manics special today. 1985 got an airing.
Curiously, as they were after good lyrics, Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd got an airing too.
Maybe the YLAINE reference. But it's up on Sounds if you aren't listening to anything else.

Manics just been on so I've turned it off haha. Didn't have Wayne Murray with them. Wasn't their best performance but it was great to see them on TV and it's wonderful exposure for them.

Yeah, I couldn't spell Clwb! Oh well. Still the closest we've got to a BBC Four Manics Night.
(Come on BBC, The Holy Bible show at Cardiff Castle, St. David's Hall and the Clwb footage. Plus numerous appearances on Later. Throw in a showing of No Manifesto as well possibly, and yes. That's a good Friday night schedule)

Thanks for the link. I think its likely only for UK but will give it a try. From the tracks I did see they sounded damn good.

I watched Roundhouse 2011 today, never viewed that one in full previously. And a 2014 show, love the Futurology era - T in the Park 2014. Great stuff. Loads of proshot gigs on YouTube I've not seen so time now to catch up and finally watch a lot of it
