Best Band on the planet!!!
Quote by zepsix
did anybody ever see wasp when they were about? plus the tubes for a brilliant stage show. there was a band called dread zepplin i seen the at the riverside at newcastle, and i have got to admit, i pissed myself laughing all night
WASP don't actually deserve the past tense reference... They're gigging on May 9th at the Astoria (there are probably other dates too, but I haven't checked). Granted I'm expecting them to be a bit past their sell by date, but it could be a chuckle...!
how about santana. seen then live, and boy can that man play guitar. it almost makes you cry. then again so can joe satriani, when i seen him. he just amazed me. but thats me give me a bloody good guitars and i am happy i suppose that the old rocker in me. but i guess by some off the groups poeple have mentioned in this thread, i am not the only one. old rockers dont die, they just smell that way :D

im with roxn speedo here with the darknes its nice to see a les paul gibson being played properly for a change .(that's the guitair, i guess you all knew that anyway)

Oh yes. The Scissor Sisters cover of Comfortably Numb was... what's the word? An experience. Superb.
Not wishing to be nasty but Coldplay are really crap-if you like them listen to Echo & the Bunnymen the Darkness are neither big nor clever they are a one trick pony and pony is the operative word.
For sheer class I point to the following:
David Bowie
Belle and Sebastian
The Pixies
or if you have real class the following
The Jam
Jackie Wilson
The Velvettes
Tammi Terrell
Etta James
The Marvelettes
Oh I could go on all day...I have I yourselves a favour and buy a compilation called; the in crowd - 1958-1967 then you have heard music

Picking just one is too hard.
Mike and the Mechanics & Big Country (love driving to their music)
Genesis (with and without Gabriel)
Yes (Andersons voice is incredible)
Jean Michel Jarre (live concert at Docklands and he's joined on stage by Hank Marvin)
Joe Cocker (nuff said)
Chris Rea (just a master of his art)
Sadly, I can think of nothing from todays bands - Coldplay leave me cold

I agree Queen but also Squeeze their lyrics are about real life, MrsFChas told me to say her choice is the Pet Shop Boy's
i'M WITH MRS FC ON THAT ONE I'M AFRAID
ops: I loved them when i was a kid and havent gotten over them yet (but i'm trying really hard) :oops:
So after all this time .....Are they now Old Romantics???
My votes Queen .....every member wrote a number 1 single!! And nothing could match the power of their stage presence ...God save the queen.

looking through i have noticed moist also uses joy division lyrics in her postings.
Good shout anyone who likes similar music to me must be classy,i know I am 8)
Well sorry to dissapoint but I love Coldplay & know them well so not quite as classy as your good self.......

i cant believe people actually like coldplay there tedious,boring,there songs all sound so winey and on the wrong speed and they sound like a bad pink floyd cover band. how people listen to them i never know i always change radio stations when they are being played on radio that goes for travis as well absolute shite........
Sorry to pour cold water on this thread, but what gives certain members the right to call other people's tastes into question with generalistic and disparaging comments such as 'crap' and 'shite'?
This is addressed in particular to HornyLondon and SiGo. I've noticed that SiGo also did this with the British sitcom thread. So what if one person likes the Darkness or Coldplay and another doesn't? Does it really lower a person in your eyes if they prefer the Vicar of Dibley to Blackadder?
Come on, fellahs. Everyone has a right to personal opinion, but you have no right to disparage others' because they do not coincide with your own. By all means disagree as is your right, but do so constructively please.

Sappho... Well what can i say?.. very diplomatic of you indeed yet very well well put.
While i must admit that how people can say coldplay is shite instead of "well im not a fan" (which im able to understand) does cheese me off, i must admit from time to time i do brandish the odd band as crap!..lol..
But as said before ..surely you have to be broadminded in the sense that you cant dictate what people should and should not listen to otherwise the music industry could be a very dull place.
So for me i happen to think that coldplays music is somewhat a futuristic sound of soft rock.. i mean cris martin is clearly talented with his different instruments and while he does not have superb voice there are some great lyrics knocking about on their albums.
Bloody hell reading back over this im thinking ive gone a bit OTT on the whole coldplay thing and it prob sounds like i listen to nothing else... ha ha
Anyway take it easy everyone... who wants this soap box???
A bit of "the coral" anyone? erm.. er.. actually..lets not even go there!

music to me is a gift... i do not like every band or group but most have some contribution. music is something devine, from within, and expression. to listen and to appreciate is what matters. it is the lyrics, the structure of the sounds that accompany it, pure magic. best ones, lots and I think like football and cars, we all think X or Y are the best, but the fact is somewhere within our heads, we find ourselves sometimes whistling the very song from the group we dislike...the POWER of music
I'm sorry if offend or don't make great artistic statement as to why I dislike the things I like, I just don't believe in grey areas and I know it is lazy to just say -crap,shite etc. when describing point I make is light hearted and this probaly dosen't come across in type.
But I do believe in each to their own and I don't look down on somebody as a person due their choices in clothing,music and so on.I admit that probably these are areas that I am probably arrogant about but thats just because I feel strongly about them and am confident in my opinions of them.
I think I just like an argument :twisted:

I didn't say arrogance is a virtue,in fact the point I was making is that the way I have that arrogance is a bad point of mine (as well as many others).
The point about liking an argument was just a bit of devilment hence the :twisted:
No Ithink I was really trying to say SORRY
Just not good at it though (aren't all blokes)
