Moz's ticket prices are comparable with other artists of his stature. Not such a waste of money as the 'lockdown' the writer refers to. 24 Trillion spent on a couple of sniffles and a sore throat.
For me, it's all very sad really. The demise of The Smiths was bad enough, but to see Morrissey and Marr going at each other directly in public like this is the pair of them destroying their own legacy, all that great music, the romance and mythology of their meeting, the songs that meant so...
At the time when the song was released, I always thought it had been composed on a piano/synth idea and that the 'simple' guitar line had been vamped or improvised over the top. It was only when Johnny did his book tour and demonstrated that it actually started with the creation of the guitar...
You will barely, if at all, find radio station that plays anything from the 50s or 60s these days. There are a few digital stations that stream them. I was born 1970, so I was raised with the sound of those eras in my house and I still love a lot of that music to this day, even moreso than a...
I remember a few of those names, even met a few of them on the tours back then. I was around more between 2000 - 2003/4, mainly in the old chat room. I miss the chat room, I preferred the real-time interaction and live, quickfire discussion format. I was never really bothered with the main...
God knows, it's force of habit visiting here. Today is the first time I've looked at the forums for years. I miss the chat room of old (circa 2000). I still look at the main news every couple of weeks.
yes, I can see both sides of this. I suppose the crux of the matter is whether or not the interpretation of the part is true or sympathetic to the song. I think there's a fine line, especially with bass lines as they do create part of the harmony of the music which, if changed too dramatically...
It seems unfathomable to me (as a guitar player), why any bass player would tour with any band playing one of their famous hits live and play something different. Surely, you would sit down with your bass, listen to the song and learn the parts exactly section by section? The first band I ever...
I never knew that either until I read this book. The reviews on Amazon (some of them), said that there was nothing more to really add to The Severed Alliance, but I found this book to be the most informative and interesting book since The Songs That Saved Your Life by Simon Goddard. I waited...
