Sadly saw a terrible version of the show at the Lyceum. I should have known better when it contained 2 reality show regulars. Remember an elderly family member owning this on vinyl in the 70s

28.09.2025 08:24 β π 34 π 3 π¬ 3 π 0Love to see this. I've had this in the past with fan clubs of my favourite bands long before social media. I remain friends with some going back to the early 90s. Wish I was nearer I'd have been there. Community this is what has often been lacking since the net took over.

13.09.2025 15:36 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Just thinking of MTV and the ITV rock shows too as half the Bailey Brothers was at my local venue last night. Music TV was often tacky but we've gone from that to barely any music TV apart from Jools Holland. Social media has a lot to answer for.
13.09.2025 15:34 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The good old days when we all watched the same video screen rather than a pub or coffee shop full of folk staring at smart phones

06.09.2025 19:42 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Total bobbins, a lot of pub venues also learning and putting bands on at weekends at tea time. A long time ago afternoon drinking/ socialising was seen as antisocial but it's very different times. I prefer being home before dark and never relying on taxis either

06.09.2025 18:15 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0WHY is it that classical musicians in orchestras get lauded as being the crΓ¨me de la crΓ¨me in the world of instrumentalists, when they all require sheet music to help them remember the tune? I saw Napalm Death a few weeks ago and they didn't have to look at a book once. They could remember all the songs just fine, and most of their ones are loads faster than any Beethoven or Mozart.

02.09.2025 20:55 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Obviously a younger band now put the drummer remains but they were spot on musically on their own songs plus the classics such as Buddy Holly

14.08.2025 00:40 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0In the late 80s n 90s Barnsley folk were lucky enough to be able to go to a club nevermind a gig and catch a cheap bus from Sheffield to Barnsley at 2pm I'm also sure the trains ran later esp on Saturdays. Then both sources of public transport wrecked. Can't even watch the end of a gig now
