The Wildhearts!!!!

[Hollis]

Look it was a free ticket.

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Look it was a free ticket.

You were done.

I love them. Saw them in Scarborough last September and they really proved they still have what it takes.

There are also loads of rumours on The Wildhearts mailing list of a reformation next year, apparently CJ and Danny have now said it looks like they're doing something as a band again soon.

Looking forward to Ginger's solo album on Dec 19th too - called Valor Del Corazon.

 

[Belzub]

i was trying to say how different they were from that sort of thing

Bah. 's all indie bollocks to me.

 

[chriswill]

I really like the Wildhearts.

Miles away girl is one song that remonds me of a girl I was seeing at the time.

Makes me go all soft and mushy when I hear it.


Top tunes.

 

[chriswill]

Christ this an old one i'm bumping.


Just wanted to say the new album is great.

 

[Dubversion]

shit poll, shit options

 

[cyberfairy]

shit poll, shit options

Well worth saying that about a poll from two years ago. Will sit down and have a good think about the shit poll I did two years ago and how I can possibly make amends for such a travesty I can't remember even writing.
Urban-my deepest apologies

 

[Dubversion]

Quite right too

 

[Firky]

Used to see Ginger all the time in the Tut n Shive, in Newcastle. I think they played there once or twice too. They're OK - really like that "keep on" (?) tune they did but I'm not a huge fan of their stuff.

edit to add: come to think of it I don;t think it was ginger just some geordie with dreads

 

[bluestreak]

i seen the wildhearts many many times. loved em. not a fan of their newer stuff though.

 

[rekil]

Slightly better than Wolfsbane.

 

[madamv]

My mate used to date Jef who used to play geetarr for them.

He is a top bloke.

(^ My one and only claim-to-fame. Oh and an ex friends brother is in Pitchshifter and their mate is in the Boo Radleys.)

 

[LDR]

I think I saw them supporting Limp Bizket at Finsbury Park.. Aload of crap!!

You're wrong. They weren't on the bill.

 

[Dubversion]

Slightly better than Wolfsbane.

Ah, bless Blaze

he once interviewed my mate's band - SAT ON A MOTORBIKE!!

that's metal, that is

 

[twistedAM]

You're wrong. They weren't on the bill.

Yeah that was probably fucking A...twats. Remember when the singer tried to do the populist thing and go over to the barrier to sing toi the "real fans"? Thing was that those in the enclosure in front of the stage were for the most part (95%) the real fans who had entered a competition to win tickets and those beyond the barrier were just people who chanced it and turned up on the day.

 

[secretsquirrel]

Listened to indie/rock music at gig last night...was allright, pleasant, a bit rowdy..got in car, put on Wildhearts album and just one chord was more powerful and tuneful and catchy exhilerant than the whole evening had been...
They don't date, are the epitome of rock n roll and have never sold cars/married an actress and are just damn fab! Agreed?

Is now the time for me to retell my anecdote about the night I spent in a hotel room with Danny...

 

[Hollis]

You're wrong. They weren't on the bill.

okay, correction, - I saw them on 23rd June 1996, supporting the Sex Pistols and Iggy Pop - at Finsbury Park.

 

[LDR]

You were done.

We know. It was the first time I met Bluestreak.

 

[loud 1]

they

are


fukin


shat.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Best. Band. Ever. Dub has no taste, but a great tagline at the moment, so we can let him off comments he made two years ago.

Anyway, The Wildhearts are touring at the moment - anyone else going to see them on Sunday at Koko's?

 

[rekil]

Ah, bless Blaze

he once interviewed my mate's band - SAT ON A MOTORBIKE!!

that's metal, that is

The Pennywhores have a song called Roadieing For Wolfsbane, a vision of hell. They were all stuck in that particularly ghastly rock ghetto along with the likes of The Almighty and The Quireboys.

 

[g force]

The Almighty....more there's a shite band!

3 Colours Red - worst name - bugged me when I was a kid. You can have 3 shades of red FFS not colours

 

[Gerry1time]

Going to see them tonight in Bristol, love 'em, woohoo! Better than cradle of filth last night. Worst. Gig. Ever.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Not a Kieslowski fan, then?

 

[Oula]

I will be at Koko on sunday and looking forward to it. I like them an embarassing amount so try not to talk about it with normal people coz they take the piss.

I want to hear secretsquirrel's anecdote about Danny and a hotel room.

 

[Mogden]

Top top band. Earth Vs is one of my all time favourite albums. Seen them a couple of times and they just send my adrenaline into overdrive. A friend of mine's ex was heavily involved in the fan club but I still didn't get to meet them although Ginge is on my list of would like to meet people.

3 Colours Red - worst name - bugged me when I was a kid. You can have 3 shades of red FFS not colours

yeah you're right actually, that is a fucking stoopid name

... !

 

[rekil]

The Almighty....more there's a shite band!

I saw them once....supporting Heart.

 

[Mogden]

I saw them once....supporting Heart.

I can beat that. I saw Tyketto supporting Queensryche

In my defence I was young at the time.
