Big_Stu Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 [quote name='BRANCINI' timestamp='1343294512' post='1748343'] Wouldnt want to split hairs, nor argue with wikipedia... which is always right But I clearly remember hearing Cyndi Lauper being interviewed on the radio, on a Saturday afternoon when the single was current. and stating how much she dug the Roy Orbison track, and reasons why she covered it etc etc Orbison was a little bit out of fashion at the time I think.. [/quote] Don't know much about Lauper, but always had a passing interest in Orbison. Wasn't he doing the Travelling Wilburys stuff while Lauper was reaching her peak?

fumps Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) [quote name='paul torch' timestamp='1343232000' post='1747492'] I was playing in the Bhuta tent. Can't remember when (you know how it is ). I started going to/playing there at the second one and went to about 8 or so. It was awesome in the early days but I think it's lost a little of it's vibe along the way. Still got loads of mates from up that way so may venture there again next year. [/quote] Yeh i stopped going when the police swooped on it & made it a paranoid, police state. thats the last year i went, shame as it was a fantastic festival. which band were you in ?

[/quote] I was DJing at the time under the monikers of Paul Torch and Torchcore. In fact, it was the Wickerman that got me interested in bands again. I think they were a victim of their own success. There is a small break-away festival up in that neck of the woods run by the original guys that that got me involved, Eden Festival. Looks lo-key and grass roots so may give that one a go, it's a bit of a trek from london though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILL POSTERS Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Heres a great cover of a great number. Cant understand why covers bands dont seem to do it Pity about the sad 80s rock image and the bloody awful video.

Paul S Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 There some great covers on that Metallica album! I like their version of Queen's Stone Cold Crazy. Can we include people covering thier own numbers - one of the best I have heard recently is Tom Jones singing Delilah mariachi style at the Jubilee concert. Brilliant.
