    Ahhh there it is. Blaming the officials. Ruined the game. Should’ve had a penalty. Offside goal wasn’t offside. Dive for Brown’s second yellow. They should’ve had a red before that. They’re a better side than Oxford, and if you don’t see that then you don’t understand football. 
     

    That’s what we call a clean sweep. Classic!

    Not just because he's Rovers' manager, let's face it, the bloke is a total cock.

    I was there too, fantastic gig wasn't it? Did you notice Paul McLoone chanted BRISTOL CITY! in the middle of My Perfect Cousin? Legend! 

    The Undertones remain one of my lifelong favourite bands, having been the first gig I ever went to, aged just under 14, in 1979. The Locarno was supposedly an over-18s venue, but was always full of spikey little schoolkids when the punk and new wave bands came to play, which was most weeks back then. Good times. 

    Those were great days, I remember them fondly. Saw SLF live a few times, the Damned loads of times, XTC, pretty much all the quality bands, and a few less so   :laugh: :laugh:

    PS fav Untertones track, and it went down brilliantly on Friday, Get Over You. Sang EVERY BLEEDIN WORD.

    He certainly did, and I noticed ittoo :laugh: Top man.. and hey,  he is a quality vocalist. This is the first time I've seen the band since '79 when Feargal was fronting.

    I agree. All the albums from the 70’s are class, the 80’s stuff not so much, but I do like The Works. 

    I listened to the album Jazz a few months ago for the first time in ages and was surprised at how good it still sounded.

    They were very, very talented, but like you, I much prefered the 70s output, the stuff where they weren't joking around so much, as I like to put it.

    This is my favourite Queen track, love the album A Night at the Opera. 
     

     

    Superb. The middle section is outstanding.

    I think the albums up to and including this one are pretty much perfect.

    Then I think it starts to tail off, with some great stuff still around, but less and less.

    But it's all about taste and I know of lots of people who cannot stand Queen.

    I love 'em.

    The Undertones 'Just Like Romeo and Juliet' is an absolute stunner of a cover version. 

    It's thanks to the Undertones that I discovered the seminal Nuggets compilations, and Michael & The Messengers version of 'R&J" is one of the standouts.

    I could literally listen to this Undertones version all night on repeat, it's ace. 

     

    Saw them last Friday at O2 in Bristol...  Absolutely superb.

    Wonderful playing, great sound balance, great vocals, guitars, drums, bass,

    loads and loads of tunes. One of the best things I've seen in quite a while.

    The Rezillos weren't so good. All sounded a bit samey.

    Always thought he was good on BT's National League coverage.

    I thought both pundits were really good last night.

    I could definitely listen to those two again, which isn't something I think a lot.
