    Suede in the one hit wondery types? Did I imagine Suede's music?

    Yeah, anyone who thinks Suede were one-hit wonders has a S E R I O U S gap in their musical education. One of the best English guitar bands ever...

    Their 1st album is still probably the most hyped debut album in my lifetime listening to music!

    The first three singles released throughout 92/93 leading up to the debut sent everyone bananas-

    The Drowners
    Metal Mickey
    Animal Nitrate

    Some tunes.

    cracking album all right, only glitch is "moving" which they dont like themselves
    I love the broody ones, Shes not dead, Pantomime Horse, Sleeping Pills...

    Although ive always known them and their singles i actually only properly listened to the albums a few years ago, i took a dislike to them back in the day, cant remember why, so it was like discovering a new band for me, as a guitarist it has even more appeal, Bernard was a super musician and clearly infuenced by the god that is J Marr,
    the new guy was obvs told to copy bernard as much as possible!

    Don't know how I missed that. Too late now. I don't think much of the solo stuff but listening to him cranking out the Smiths stuff in the EA a couple of years ago was pretty special.

    Ah God, Something Happens doing Forget Georgia on the Late Late. Bless. I loved that album. Alone on a beach with Jesus indeed. I'd love to see them in Stradbally too. Missed them last time.

    Saw them at EP doing "take this with you" a few years ago in Jerry Fish's tent. (Slightly off-key but) fantastic to hear

    The tent was packed for them! Would love to see them again! Left with smiles on our faces after them! I wonder with them doing the tipp gig would they make an appearance for us!

    I literally just googled it for you. 2nd and 3rd results will probably tell you what you need to know. https://www.google.ie/search?q=electric+picnic+installment+tickets&rlz=1C1CHBF_enIE760IE760&oq=electric+picnic+installment+tickets&aqs=chrome..69i57.6248j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    it's on the Ticketmaster website. search for Electric Picnic, go to the installment plan link, More Info link, and Event info link.

    If we can’t have leftfield or chemical brothers, orbital would keep me happy...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,539 ✭✭✭ghostdancer


    Orbital are at Beatyard in Dun Laoghaire a month before EP, so can't see them being announced.

    I see Belly have their first album in 23 years out. Also have a month date free after the 26th August. I'd love to see Tanya.

    I wouldn't mind Dreadzone for the Trenchtown lineup now.

    New DeathGrips album on the way. About time an Irish festival booked them. We got Ho99o9 a few years we are arguably heavier, but we need some Zack Hill
