carlosj Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Sunday gives me that FEELING. I'm in my 50s and I still sometimes get that 'going back to school tomorrow' feeling on a Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyhack Posted April 25, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 I wish I were still in my 50s carlosj. But this Sunday I'll be feeling the F5 button in the hopes of a resale ticket that would make an old man happy. In the meantime I have to make do with classic Glasto performances I've seen. He's another bunch of oldies showing that as well as feeling they can SEE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosj Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 SeeTICKETs You have some other fingers to help with the F5 tomorrow, Mr. Hack. Let's hope it all goes to plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyhack Posted April 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 GERTCHA Hopefully I'll be singing this after a morning of F5-ing Sadly another Grumpy Gonner but they were great fun live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyhack Posted April 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 SLIP, SLIDING or AWAY Just couldn't persuade the ticket gods to let me grab one. This was a magical concert - though I've only watched it on video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyhack Posted April 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) FAR Hard to think that this is over forty years old. They were a great band live and much under-rated. Edited April 30, 2019 by grumpyhack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted May 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Close but no cigar was a phrase used at Fairgrounds to punters who almost won the prize - often a cigar - but just failed and weren't perfect. So a bit of FAIRGROUND Attraction. Eddie Reader is still touring and may see her in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted May 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 HALLELUJAH Another Grumpy Gonner, but still one of the finest performers I have ever seen live. Sadly his Glasto appearance wasn't broadcast. And I think this was also a Shrek song - albeit not the LC version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpyhack Posted May 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 RAIN I remember Everybody's Talkin' from the film Midnight Cowboy which featured a stunning performance by Dustin Hoffman. A real tear jerker. This clip is from a great set by John Fogerty at Glastonbury - though why I post Glasto clips when I don't have a ticket this year I don't know.

carlosj Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Feelgood. Is this where the band got its name from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyhack Posted June 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) If you want a bit of pedantry, according to Wikipedia Dr Feelgood was formed in Canvey Island in 1971 by Johnson, Brilleaux and Sparks, who had all been members of existing R&B bands, and soon added drummer John Martin. They took their name from a 1962 record by the American blues pianist and singer Willie Perryman (also known as "Piano Red") called "Dr. Feel-Good", which Perryman recorded under the name of Dr. Feelgood & The Interns. The song was covered by several British beat groups in the 1960s, including Johnny Kidd & The Pirates. The term is also a slang term for heroin or for a doctor who is willing to overprescribe drugs. The Feelgoods still perform but with no original members as far as I know. Better still catch Wilko Johnson, especially if he's with Norman Watt Roy on bass, as that will give you more of a Feelgood feel. oh and the link word is JOHNSON Edited June 7, 2019 by grumpyhack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
