Only really listened to the DHSS albums. Still remember a lot of the words. Been humming stuff today, and smiling to myself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt-Hertz Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) Yep. In hotel in Glos, waiting for my lift with Forbes PM. Should be a good night...not seen HMHB since 1986. Would have tried to fit in Fulham game too, but on n/s tomorrow night, goddammit! Edited March 6, 2020 by Mike Hunt-Hertz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted March 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Just checked the SWX Twitter feed and they describe it as 'an early show' don't know what the stage times are, but there is a club night on afterwards. So I would imagine they will be on stage significantly earlier than the average gig you attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Friday night gigs at SWX have a 10pm curfew so headliner is usually on just after 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it flattened the atmos a bit, but the lads were on top form. City supporter Banger Trescothick in the crowd, and Trevor Tainton mentioned from the stage. Only HMHB would do that. Kudos to the bloke down the front dressed as the King of Hi-Vis. Stanley Mortenson. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Team In Keynsham Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 @Mad Cyril and me were there. First time I had seen them since the 1980s. I thought they were on superb form. 2 oddball covers thrown in for good measure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t been to “Odyssey” for who years, and as we got closer I said to my bruv “I hope he’s not on the door, he’ll ask us to walk round the block to sober up” Bizarrely I was chatting to my bruv about going to Villa for an away game with two City fans I’d never met and his talk on the way up was a City, and talk (after defeat) on the way back was HMHB, and lo and behold @lager loud (and his mate Phil) were stood behind us. Good to see you fellas @BS4 on Tour... bumped into Wadsy....haven’t seen him to chat to for years. Good gig, just wish I knew more of the songs. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
