sunshine, you're as old as you feel like. and i feel ancient. for example my 73 yo grandma keeps saying she's 17

anyhow, i'm glad i stayed at home. i've seen THB 3 nights in the roundhouse in the front row and that was epic, and here the 2nd half was more radio friendly than the whole TIMT.
alright, I'd be happy being there too, but i guess in the long time plan, me not going to Cardiff made sense

the only thing i regret is not seeing Nicky in a skirt

It didn't stop Nicky, they auctioned one he smashed about 7 or 8 years ago recently....

that idiot smashed his Red maranello few years ago and that was a fucking desecration. Red maranello was a bass guitar created by gods themselves.

We need an unpopular opinions/constructive criticism thread. I have a LOT of that shit.

Electric Picnic, it was completely obliterated mid set. That's what happens you go cheap on a strap...

Isn't that every thread these days?

Think they should go the same way as Michael Stipe....and retire.

Holy-moly, this thread.

If people are so upset at missing a few tracks maybe they should have actually gone to the gig! The BBC decided to give fans the chance to see highlights, and people complain. Sweet Jesus.

I think they should maybe make the next few years their last. One more album. One more tour.

[Takk]

Jeez, I have never seen so much complaining by people not even there!

I thought it was wonderful...except everlasting, where the backing track and the mix was all wrong so you couldn't hear the live strings.

Pretty much.

It was a bit of a disappointment but the outrage is pretty wild.

Basically JDB is now too old. I wish it wasn't true, you wish it wasn't true. It happened.

If you loved making music and some random jerk-off from the internet told you to stop - would you listen? Fucking hell. They're rockstars. They've headlined Glastonbury. They've played everywhere in the world. They've written number 1 singles. If they want to make 10 more albums full of Your Love Alone rip-offs, they're entitled to do so. Not singling you out, but this thread has become embarrassing.

Too tired to argue - baby James (yes, named after him) has a bad cold and is grizzly and I've been up since 3am. Love you though, Deets! Long time since I've heard from you. And I still love the manics more than life itself (although since baby James has popped out, this may have be one more fudged.)
