I don't want nkPro, what else do you have to offer ?
But seriously, am I allowed to give away a Reg-Code of this game. I mean, the person who receives it will only be able to unlock it once... I didn't read the license agreement, I just wanted to have the game so fast
In my first band i played bass, but found it kinda boring, so moved to rhythm guitar in the next one, and lead guitar in the next, erm then singer in the next , didnt make any difference though, they were all still crap.
I remember at the time Mark King was regarded as the best there was, but, was always followed by the comment, "Except, the music he plays is crap" , could never work that one out myself ?? ( didnt remember the keyboard players name, but he did look like a smug git !)
As far as bassist's went i always prefered the good old "Vulture" Pino Paladino, (not sure on the spelling), and it was far cooler to be into Paul Young than Level 42, at least, if you wanted to impress the ladies
Ok Kid, seems i got 6 years on you (God i feel old)
And to be honest i was more into The Cult, Echo and the Bunnymen, Cure, Souixie Sioux etc, post punk/Goth stuff
Thanks to your description of Pino's sound i've now got "Come back and stay for good this ti-mmmm" running through my head, with that wailing woman in the background illepall
As far as Norwood and Fishbone are concerned, i've never heard of them ??
I dont really wanna get into a full blown conversation here, but, you seem to know what your talking about, so i'm guessing your involved in the industry in some way, you ever come across a band from Leicester called Prolapse ?, it's basically my claim to fame, a couple of them were in my first band at school, they had a few albums, did ok on the indie scene, John Peel was a big fan, always playing their stuff, not seen them for a few years though, not sure what the're up to now ?
AHHH, sorry to keep this off topic, but you just mentioned another claim to fame, we supported The Wedding Present at Newcastle Mayfair in about ermmmmm, 19.....something or other, damn those drugs really mess with yer memory, early 90's late 80's dunno ?
Dave was one of the soundest guys i ever met on the music scene, (Julian Cope's cool too, but he's a complete loon )on that tour, they'd invite local bands to support them, and we were the 1st of 5, so there was us, the bar staff and another band backstage in a 2'000 capacity hall , strangely, we were still shitting ourselves before we went on ! Dave managed to catch about 30 secs of our last song, but said some really complementary stuff, so we were all really chuffed, then we split up about two weeks later lol, if you ever see him again see if he remembers Jade Stem from Newcastle
And me and Leeds go back a loooong way, spent many a night in the Warehouse, usually stuck to the floor, trying to spot Eldritch or Hussey.
Used to compete on the track at Carneige college in my teens, and two companies i worked for had large depots down there, i know it well, cool city, but not as good as the Toon though
