Parts of Heaton Park were pretty bad and saw them in Dublin and he was a little bit better. Difficult to go see them multiple times playing the same show with a singer who cant sing the songs.

Difficult to go see them multiple times playing the same show with a singer who cant sing the songs. Another reason I've fancied the Friday for Etihad. Certainly don't fancy his chances on the Sunday. I would love to see them in a small venue if they done a warm up gig. If he doesn't feel like he has to shout for 50,000 people then you have more chance of his vocals being better. I remember at T i was standing next to some massive Roses fan, and he said his wife had went to another stage to see someone else, as she loved them but had seen Ian Brown live loads of times and he sounded horrific every time. The one time she didn't turn up and he sounded good. How he laughed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although to be fair, it does sound like the monitors were shoddy. There's something about the way he and the drummer are singing that makes me think they can't hear themselves.

CaledonianGonzo Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 That line about the fear of being buggered by Strap On Sally is one of the oddest lyrics ever to feature on a top ten single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to find my way back to the Pyramid and came up to some sort of stage. Then I heard some John Squire like guitar playing, checked my guide and was well happy.

That lyric covers sexual adventure, fear, drama, pursuit of bottoms, alleys (reflecting the alleys behind many North West working class homes like you see on that there Corrie) and some running. No hand holding or wall building at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess from the 724 pages Moz devoted to it in his court case, he's still not over it...

Yokel Again Posted May 13, 2016 Report Share Posted May 13, 2016 I remember watching that Seahorses set on TV (or what they showed of it).... the bit whre it goes 'these waters run deep...' and he turns away and gives up.... painful to watch. You had to feel for him abit. Clearly thinks 'feck it' when he goes out in the crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
