Alabama 3 on C4 news

[Dubversion]

That may be so, but I don't like the end result.

that's fine - your call. Just wanted to dispute the 'student novelty' allegations, not force you to like them

 

[Orang Utan]

Fair enough. <starts tapping foot. Then starts humming. 'now she doesn't dance to techno anymore.....everyone's a wally!>

 

[Blagsta]

Oh come on, they're an amusing student comedy band. What's so good about them?

 

[William of Walworth]

You're NOT ALLOWED to not like it, OU!!!!

No-one's been saying that in this thread ...



<Attempts to clear head of impression that OU is just being 'contrarian -- for effect>

<Almost succeeds -- almost >

We saw them in Swansea on Saturday

They were the biz

'Peace In The Valleys" as an encore

Piss off

I never said - or indeed, meant - that anyone had...

They are bloody marvelous live to be fair.

I'm going to see them in Cork next Weds. Its my mate's daughter's 21st, so the old posse from London are all coming over for it. So there will be a crowd of us ranging from 20-55 going, Londoners, Corkonions, Peruvians and Dutch (and probably a few more. We all have seen A3 before and love them. Can't bloody wait.

the Urban Takeover mix of Woke Up This Morning is blinding

 

[William of Walworth]

Must get hold of that ...

We were listening to that album of acoustic versions on Sunday

 

[phildwyer]

They used to work better at Brady's than in the bigger places they play now.

 

[Pieface]

They're a different band now. I like the lady they have singing with them - she lifts it.

Really? I can only think of one or two UT remixes that aren't 'jump up by numbers' toss . . .

i guess the thing is, it was that long ago and it wasn't yet 'by numbers'.

10 years even!

i played with them last friday. we died on our arse. and alabama 3 lifted the room, and people were ecstatic. They sold out the Coal Ex. Massive following.
Thought the new album was a bit of a let down, except Amos Moses - classic!!!!

 

[Dubversion]

well they were as good as I've ever seen the full line-up - of late, the SHowband has been more fun but tonight they were in stunning form. The Astoria was heaving, the atmosphere was genius.
