My over-riding impression was Von sang more than on recent tours. Nice.

Re: NME or NDE?

I too was a 70's 'Sounds' guy, but moved gradually to the NME via Melody Maker.

Living in, or around Leeds for major parts of my life I've also had a few NME live experiences.

....point of order....

My 70's youth memory, and monster CD archive, informs me that is an album title and not a song name.

Re: Happy birthday elamanamou

I was just talking with elamanamou following her return from holidaying with her mucky man. She's having a few wi-fi issues at home and so is struggling to log on to HL. She thanks all for the recent birthday wishes.

Re: Inexplicable music blind spots

Respect Dave regarding IM.

However others, Thin Lizzy were (by far) the best live rock band I ever saw. (Bad Rep in Liverpool Empire to Thunder n Lightning at Reading). Have to admit the coke n smack lead to Chinatown tour onwards being a bit wanky :lol:

Re: Today I have been mostly...

Hard to avoid hills in our part of the world brother Dave, but the essence of it is, when you're truly ready to quit, you'll quit. With lockdowns largely putting an end to my 'just pop down the road for a quick bev' habit, it also drastically reduced my smoking. I was only a social smoker though, bu...
