Kind of yeah but when Axl and Slash were doing their own thing I wasn't overly bothered and just thought as long as Axl's vocals and slash's riffs were there I'd be game, same thing with Bloc Party when drummer and bassist left I've still continued to see them with Keles vocals and Russell's riffs, the other musicians in both cases cut the mustard in my opinion so I'm happy.

 

A lot of acts in all reality are only really one or two people and the others are interchangeable . Oasis for example is just the Gallaghers, the other three blokes come through a revolving door.

Hey, you're taking words out of my mouth there, of course he did hence me being a massive fan (I've seen them 7 times) if the newbies didn't cut it I'd just continue listening to the records.

Apologies, I misinterpreted what you said.

I've not seen BP with the new line up. I think I've seen them live 5 times but would absolutely love to see them doing Silent Alarm.

Holding out hope for an Other Stage slot, early to late evening. Had some great times in the past watching Jamie T and Editors round that time.

Exactly one bassist which comes to mind and I would miss is (and would be irreplaceable) (imo) would be Justin Chancellor from Tool I don't see how anyone else could do that Schism riff.

Though I live to be proven wrong.

No worries, I saw them in Amsterdam last week on the silent alarm tour and again last night at Alexandra Palace, bleddy awesome, Kele seems to have been rejuvenated by it (lots of energy) as for Louise (new drummer) and Justin (new bassist) they definitely cut it

Fucking hell I saw the Stones this year, stood this close, for the same price as the booking fee on a Fleetwood Mac ticket. Those lucky dip tickets are the best thing that's ever happened.

The actual pic weren't that blurry I dunno what's happened there.

I still get depressed that I didn't know about them until it was too late.

I just love the fact me and my mate were umming and ahhing over it because we didn't wanna be stuck at the back of the stadium and then ended up with £450 front pit tickets. As someone who'd had a maxed out overdraft all year it was nice to have something like that to end the uni year.

Saw them for €75 in Dublin earlier in the year. Standing. Couldn't see a fucking thing other than screens no matter how high I jumped. First time in my life I've ever looked at seating with envy.

Ashcroft's behaviour is making him unroastable

We'll see about that.

He's like a rock & roll Trump.

Is it too early to start a “Get Ashcroft at the BRITS” campaign?

I was totally shocked earlier. I googled Richard Ashcroft Memes and there were NONE! None I tell ya! I've never been so let down by the internet.

Just googled what a lucky dip ticket was. Amazing idea. That passed me by when getting Stones tickets, I’d loved to have been that close! Suppose you could get a shit seat as well tho. 

We saw them at London Stadium but even in standing we were quite far away- thankfully they had the massive screens as that’s pretty much all I could see.

nothing will beat seeing them at Glastonbury, having a ticket that year was the bargain of the century.
