Went from a band that were interesting and at least meant something to supporting bon Jovi 100% this, it's time to call it a day now. I'm a big Manics fan, but when you're on your 3rd anniversary tour it's time to call it quits. The new albums have offered ever diminishing returns since Journal Of Plague Lovers, which itself was based on Richie's 20 year old lyrics.

The Red Telephone Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Thread has discussed why the Manics are the perfect support for Bon Jovi, why The Courteeners should fuck off and die, questioned James’s geographical roots, mentioned Doncaster Rovers midfielders and mentioned Rita Ora on one page. This thread is the White Album of the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you theys ever do anniversary tours of the first two albums? Must be the only band doing these kind of things not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you even say something like that on a public forum? Why would you even think something like that in your own head? Bit of a strange comment to make really. 11 hours ago, GETOFFAMYLAWN said: A lot of Manchester have the misconception that they're from here Tim Booth is from Leeds, James are from Manchester.

And yes, death to The Courteeners, the world is a cruel place where people much less deserving than them die every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they just need an extended break, build up some kind of enthusiasm and genuine desire from their fanbase to see them again. They’ve spread themselves way too thin for years - having headlined the Pyramid in 99 they were back there subbing Moby 4 years later. Can’t imagine many acts willing to take that drop so soon now, but the Manics seem happy to take whatever’s on offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
