Pets shop boys

[tomsk]

No ,
I've just checked,,

[Icey]

I just didn't understand what you were saying.

[tomsk]

Morning!

[Icey]

Afternoon!

[tomsk]

have you seen the pet shop boys live?
I have'nt but would like too..
at least once anyway..

[Icey]

No, never. I think one of their gigs'd be pretty good though.

[tomsk]

I thought they may be too poppy for you..
If I could return and see a gig again it would be seeing the 'rock and royal' one at the palace bowl with Ian Dury and the blockheads and Spirit..
great stuff 007..

[Icey]

If I was 16 again T, I wouldn't like the PSB, but after seeing them on whichever big show it was on TV, I thought they sounded great.

Yes, those who got to see Ian were lucky. I can't tell you a particular gig I'd like to re-live. All've been OK in their own ways.

[tomsk]

in your case they must all gel into one!

[Icey]

That's partly true, and maybe why no particular one stands out, but going to gigs doesn't faze me or send me into raptures because yes, I've been to so many.

[tomsk]

I would like to see Metallica ...
but not near the speakers..
just to get a real taste of a metal gig..

[Icey]

There're some better ones you could start with, because their early stuff wasn't heavy metal, but thrash. It depends on what you're after, but possibly finding a gig where you know they're going to cover one or two of your favourite songs might be best at first.

[tomsk]

I've been to a lot but not really metal,
Peter Gabriel, Bowie, Peters and Lee!,
I must make a list ...
The Undertones,
The Thompson Twins
Paul Simon,
The Damned...
Ultravox...not seen Sabbath...damn..
Have you seen Sabbath Icey?

[Icey]

No. I don't particularly like them, Arch. They've made one or two good records, but there isn't an entire album which I love.

[tomsk]

Paranoid is a cracker in me 'umble...

Sting was very good live..
Gil scott heron was brilliant...
Tenpole Tudor too!
hank wangford..(wonderful)
so many good memories..

[Icey]

That sounds great, T. A mixed bunch, which is what people should listen to.

[tomsk]

No metal though...that surprised me though as I always championed rock music...
The nearest is The Damned...
Guillemots were very good!!!

[Icey]

I think the Damned were great. The Guillemots don't do it for me, because they haven't got that exciting edge to their music which I like, but one or two of their tunes were OK when I listened to them. I was brought up on rock music, so although I like different sounds, that's my favourite.

[tomsk]

level 42 were good..
peter green..yo.....
Joan Armatrading..
Arista from GuIllEMoTs is devine...
xxxx

[Icey]

Apparently I saw Level 42, but can't remember a thing about them! : )
