Funeralopolis - Electric Wizard

I did have the Crush 100 and found that wasn't loud enough but it depends on how loud the rest of your band are

Never judge a player for having a cheap bass. Alice Coopers bassist uses an Epiphone Thunderbird Alvin from UK Subs uses a Squier Jazz as well as his Fender and he is fecking brilliant. Matt Freeman from Rancid has a Squier P bass as his backup and he's one of the best bassists in rock. Mike Kerr from Royal Blood still uses his budget Gretsch Electromatic even now thar Fender give him their top kit. Judge them by how they play, not what they play. Just because someone is skint doesn't mean they can't play and just because they've got the money for fancy kit doesn't mean they can shred.

Foals, Skunk Anansie, Pigs x7 and The Damned are the only redeeming features I can see other than the lack of Coldplay.

It's been awful every year since Emily Eavis took over booking acts.

But European bands touring the UK only have to pass through one border while British bands touring Europe have to pass through several (rarely all 28, more like 5 or 6). I guess it now makes more sense to tour the US instead of Europe.

Isn't brexit more an issue for British bands touring Europe than for European bands travelling to Britain?

I went to Peter Gabriel's studio last December and was chatting to an old bloke who had worked there for years. He told me it's quite common for all these old legends to meet up and jam or get little projects going that never release anything. He told me about a jam session a few weeks earlier with Jimmy Page, Nick Mason and Geoff Barrow (the bassist from Portishead). I wish I could have heard that session.

Manic depression - Jimi Hendrix

Reasons to be cheerful pt3. - Ian Dury and the blockheads

So What? - Anti Nowhere League

Shooting star - Gojira

I loves a bit of Rammstein. They've done songs in English, French, Russian and German and probably more. I believe this one is a mix of Russian and German https://youtu.be/H9qtQO5d8ko

All royalties payments finished forever. Future prospects for joining new bands probably ruined as well due to guilt by association. I am assuming their innocence as I have never personally heard that they aren't

Temple of love - Sisters of Mercy

I feel sorry for the other members of Lost Prophets and Glitter Band (assuming they are innocent). Their careers were destroyed by one band member.
