RIP Nora Forster

 

lydon was always really sweet when talking about her - seemed incongruous for the old scarey  punk.

I suspect this won't mean much to most on here but gutted to hear Guy Baily has passed. 

 

 

Oh that is a shame, but it did mean I spent the Easter weekend blasting out those first two albums along with some Dogs and even Cherry Bombz. I think I first saw The Quireboys as a support for CB?

May have been, I saw Cherry Bombz but don't remember the support.

Jah Shaka sound system master 

Am feeling this one. 
 

Saw him do a five hour set in London Underground a good few years back, brilliant. Old school, only one deck, behind which he would regularly crouch out of site, shortly after which a huge cloud of smoke would arise.

RIP

Amazingly, he's even getting on the news on radio four.

Thanks for posting. I’ve only just heard of his death. They’re one of the most innovative bands ever. It’s taken a long time for me to fully appreciate the band and the ongoing Stephen Wilson series of remixes is excellent. I never knew Ray worked with Bjork in her early years.

    • I see, well even if they aren't on sale it's still not a disaster sales wise, it's not like they are struggling to sell a half capacity areana
    • Blue dot wouldn’t be a thing if Ticketmasters dynamic pricing went down as well as up, it proves that the dynamic pricing was just a scam to make more money rather than something that moved with the market supply/demand. 
    • I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.
    • MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
    • Ultimately Glasto is just part of the festival circuit, however special we may think it is. The vast majority of its headliners have done many others
