Ey up lads...

Saw Howard Jones in Limerick a few years ago. Great show.

Did Jed and his mental chains make an appearance?

If he was a scary skinhead chap wearing a skirt, then possibly.

I do like a bit of Pet Shop Boys.

Neil used be Editor of Smash Hits. I think that would have been my favourite job in the World.

''So Nik, does it bother you that people keep mistaking you for Howard Jones?'' :pac:

Did i just see Justin Hawkins?

Night Ryan, see you next week!

"Brothers in Arms"

Dire Straits fans who tape this will be disappointed.

Ol' Donie · 21-03-2014 11:35PM

Brilliant, i thought this was about Dire Straits (not that thay would've been bad).

2,000 posts! A landmark evening. Should be a good one, too.

I did!

80p to see him - Hmmmm, it might be worth it if you had nothing better to do

Dunno Skid. You'd get a bag of Walker's and some change for that.

When the Everlys did that reunion concert, the BBC showed a live clip on the Nine o'clock news.

That's how big a deal it was at the time.

Didn't Ray Davies play Dublin a while ago? Jesus, i really need to be more proactive about going to gigs

Welsh Megaman · 21-03-2014 11:43PM

Dave Davies could lay a claim to 'inventing' heavy metal, slashing his amp with a razor blade to get the 'fuzz' sound.

I think this is a ropey premise for a documentary ... these are all great bands who deserve airtime but there isn't much about how having two Brothers in the band made a difference.

Got my ticket for that already. You know that!

Yep. Dig it.

Jesus The Kinks were good. Days was probably my favourite.

Welsh Megaman · 21-03-2014 11:48PM

Will we be hearing some Mama's Boys?

Anyway, if ever there was a chance of some Van Halen on Beebrock....

Skid X · 21-03-2014 11:53PM

Paul McCartney is a Music God who ruled the World and whose songs will live forever ... but his brother Mike was in Scaffold who sang Lily The Pink.

I'd call that a score draw.

OldRio · 21-03-2014 11:57PM

Dire indeed. Saw them live ( 2 HOURS. 2 HOURS I WILL NEVER GET BACK. YOU OWE ME WIFE, YOU OWE ME )

Awful

Remember the kid from Game Of Thrones brother looking p*ssed off earlier?

It ain't that bad, kid!

Welsh Megaman · 21-03-2014 11:59PM

Mat Osman is the bass player in Suede, one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the last twenty years who are credited as kickstarting an entire movement.

But what became of his brother, Richard?

Noooooo!

Can't imagine that.... would've thought they'd be a must-see gig? Can't have been THAT bad, surely???

Welsh Megaman · 22-03-2014 12:01AM

Spandau Ballet - it'll all end in acrimony...and Eastenders.

Welsh Megaman · 22-03-2014 12:03AM

School disco slow-dance time!

Er...your...hair smells nice!
