I remember seeing this on cable TV as a kid in the early ‘80’s thinking: “Hey, this doesn’t sound like Another Brick in the Wall”…. 😂

That’s right, forgot it was not a world wide thing. We still just referred to them as the Charlatans too.

Right after that single took off, they had to become Charlatans UK due to the San Francisco based Charlatans mentioned in another response having claim on the name.

On this day in 1983 and a little hint to some of the content of our first episode. #Music #MusicSky

Oliver's Army by Elvis Costello And The Attractions, released by Radar in February 1979.

5 bands/artists. One of them I have NOT seen live. Which one?

1. UB40
2. Guns and Roses
3. Jane’sAddiction
4. Green Day
5. A Flock of Seagulls

Tag someone and pass it on

I’ve not seen 3 of the 5. My guess is also AC/DC.

Checked out the The 2025 Great Cover Up at Kings in Raleigh. It was a good time, for a great cause. The bands were great with tributes to Adam and the Ants, Cher, Chappell Roan, Replacements, Harry Neilson, Faith No More and Manchester Orchestra. #Music #MusicSky #LiveMusic #GreatCoverUp2025

Every Wednesday I’m going to start posting a random cover song I like by an un/lesser known band. Today is an amazing Beatles cover from Japan. #MusicSky #Music #Beatles #coversongs #CoverSongWednesday #DistinctChords

A lot of good ones that year, but that would be mine as well.

John Lydon is "pissed off" about the Sex Pistols replacing him with Frank Carter: "they’re trying to trivialise the whole show to get away with karaoke" Former Pistol John Lydon says he's annoyed that the punk icons reunited without him

Sounds like John Lydon is mad cause he’s not in on the grift. Still, a reunion without him isn’t something I’d pay to see. Curious what everyone else’s thoughts are?

A Skag Heaven is good, but their debut was straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I know that answer was a bit of a cop-out 😂, but if I had to pick one, I guess it's "You're All I've Got Tonight".

Hey #MusicSky
#Music tell your favorite follows for #indierock #punk #alternative #ska #reggae #rock #hiphop etc… can be bands, labels, podcasts, bloggers and regular folks who post great music content.

It was one that opened up the world of metal and then on to punk for me.

Ugh, it’s hard to chose just one. This one that I can just put on and clean the house and not skip a song.

Choose 20 albums that have stayed with you or influenced you.
One album per day for 20 days, in no particular order.
No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

20/20

I was college roommates and friends with the guys in Chum (Century Media) who played with K2B a lot. I also used to help K2B’s old manager/booking agent before I got my first music biz gig.

A name I have thought about in years!

6th grade me wore the cassette out. 😂

Definitely a banger. Never got to see Kyuss, but did see El Niño Brown that was John Garcia with Karma to Burn.
