One 48 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Was down in Glasgow on Wednesday 13th, meeting a new lady friend I'd know online for a while, she's nice and i like her, so fingers crossed Good first date though, we're both of similar music persuasions and show we went to see was awesome. I hope it works out, we'll see Ghost @ Glasgow Hydro 13 04 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend recommended her to me a while back. I remember a unique take on the Cocteau Twins Sugar Hiccup using a programmable (punch paper) music box.

Will take a look at Sugar Hiccup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattheCat Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 After nearly 40 years listening to what I'll call well established "rock" bands to keep it simple, I was under the feeling that my fav bands kept to too much of the same. Well, so what to listen to besides Iron Maiden, Scorpions, AC-DC, Sabaton ..... or Bon Jovi and Nightwish for quieter moments? Being truthful to one of the qualifiers my daughter uses about me, "you old perv" (just for the laugh I hope 😅), I was dumfounded when listening to a Japanese all girls bands ..... but this terrific bassist left the band since grrrr... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddness at its finest! Cheers @Lightningboy2000. The B52s never took themselves too seriously which added to their eccentric charm. They are still going but I struggle to get my head round the idea that Cindy Wilson (pink dress, black wig) is now a grandmother! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonhoff Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 So - Went to see Skunk Anansie at the O2 Academy in Leicester last night. It was, without doubt, an awesome gig - And I'm always happy to hear the opening riff to this masterpiece. Turn it up loud! IanJ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One 48 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Currently listening to Whitesnake and Foreigner again and that's purely because I'm going down to see them both live in 11 days at Glasgow Hydro ... woo hoo, Europe will be there too, so a pretty good triple bill. Its Whitesnake's final tour, just had to be there, will post some pics and a vid after that show. But that's not the reason for this post, but it is kinda related, this is a stunning new video from Guitar maestro Steve Vai. Steve Vai as some of you will know used to play for Whitesnake and I saw him do that a couple of times, also seen him live solo once too, if I get the chance to see him live again I'm going to jump at it. Considering how long he has been playing, this is amazing (so is the guitar LOL) he is still very innovative and inventive, incredible really this far into his career ... enjoy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely love that steam punk guitar. I've heard of Steve Vai, but never got round to listening to him. Fantastic instrumental piece that coming from a big electronic music fan reminds me of old Tangerine Dream. Thanks for the education. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
