White Noise?
THE White Noise?
Wow, it is.
I just hope they're better than Silver Apples were.
I'm not that fussed about The Damned
but this festival is beginning to look fucking brilliant.
I'm so glad I've got tickets already :) :)
The Damned are really good fun live
This is what all ATP's should be like.
wow
Just wow. Hopefully there'll be plenty of crowd-pandering and playing stuff from An Electric Storm.
Partly because I don't own any of the later albums.
Kontakte should be exciting, too.
The Damned? Eeep.
Has this just turned into "let's get any old band who are still touring" now?
wow!!
i was just going to say the same thing. amazing.
i know i said 'wow' just like everyone else
but it was meant genuinely. and not sarcastically.
Or maybe it's more
a case of getting a really eclectic line up that music fans will enjoy? Just a thought.
Great news, The Damned are one of my wife's favourite bands
white noise!
well, well, well .... line-up still looks pretty skimpy on quality .... what is 'kontakte' like?
The Damned
were great ut they're well past it
