Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

Boys Don't Cry, Inbetween Days, Just Like Heaven, Close to Me, Lovesong... all great songs. 

[celtic]

See you tomorrow!!

[bobAlike]

These were my favourite but I am a bit younger than you lot



Without looking at the image tag can you name the group?

The lead singer came into my sisters clothes shop a couple of years ago and left a £10 deposit on a dress for his partner. He never came back for either. Still a rebel.

Boys Don't Cry, Inbetween Days, Just Like Heaven, Close to Me, Lovesong... all great songs. 

Every one of them a classic.

Don't forget "Friday I'm in Love". One of their best Vids, too.

I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's gray and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday, I'm in love

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love
OOohh-oooooooh

It's not them - but as an aside, they (Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel) are playing at a festival I'm going to in the summer: http://www.beautifuldays.org/artists/2013-2/

[tikay]

This is positively pronographic!

Who do you want next? - Radiohead, Chemical Brothers, Gwen Stefani, Natalie Imbruglia, ooooooooohhhhhhh.

Bugger.

Look a bit punk to me, not into punk.

Ska yes, 2Tone, yes, punk, no.

[bobAlike]

They were formed in 1975 by founding member Neil Harris (lead guitarist). But he was not the most well known of the band.

[bobAlike]

Punk yes.

[bobAlike]

Punk yes.

More kind of populist punk than hardcore.

[tikay]

Punk yes.

Not interested, sorry.

Big fan of Malcolm McLaren these days though.

[tikay]

Actually, I ought to add John Lydon to the "like" list, too.

Maybe I'm warming to punk 30 years late, but I like to see these lads when they have come back to the right side of the street & become almost sensible.
