    It's already better tonight, hope he doesn't go back to playing that dirgey stuff.

    Rocky Mountain Way is a great tune. Reminds me of Liberty Rock Radio in GTA IV.

    and just in case you're wondering...the strange sound effect in the middle is a talkbox

    Ah the only Status Quo song that features a 12 bar blues guitar riff.

    Any day with Boston and Rainbow is a good day!!

    You wouldn't really describe most of the stuff he's playing tonight as rock.


    The playlist for each show seem to have a loose theme often depending on what the classic album is. Some nights are very indie and other nights are rock.

    Needle in the Groove was the re-recorded version which I'm not too fond of.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    never rated Joe Strummer as a singer, not a note in his head woeful imo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 77,712 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Looking forward to hearing ‘Peek-A-Boo’ then :(
