One of them is a close friend of mine.

Anyone seen J&MC on the Psychocandy tour?
Good?

Off to see 'em tonight.

^ seeing 'em Sunday at the Barrowlands

P.S the term 'Shoegazing' was an insult by an NME journo.....I remember the article......just saying.....

Bedwetters... #fullypaiduprockist

Not into MBV at all Joe, no?

More of a fan now than I was then... Shared a bill with them and a whole bunch of those other guys, felt like a fish out of water... Awful, awful music...

I dont know what Thousand Yard Stare are like, so can't comment.

Awful, awful music...>

I know you are, but what are they etcetc

Typical Mary Chain moment last night - Jim comes on stage and says, 'Right, we're guannae play the encore first and then play Psychocandy, so we won't come back at the end'. They then should've done a half-hearted version of I Love Rock and Roll and stalking off, but spoiled it by doing a scorching greatest hits set.

^ was it good?

Oh yes.

awesome! loud? I have tinnitus now - will prob need earplugs

Not loud enough, probably decibel limits in the venue, but you wouldn't have mistaken it for a Low gig.

They were as loud a band as I have heard in that venue for many years, though prob not as loud as they were BITD. They were excellent, though the sound appeared to be more setup for the Psychcandy section than the tracks at the start. Went for a pint over the road post gig, and Purple Haze was on the jukebox, it sounded like muzak after J&MC.

ha, good to hear can't wait for Sunday

Ride (well Mark and Andy) acoustic set for War Child at the 100 Club last night. Really looking forward to the full band later this year.

JAMC were excellent last week.

Psychocandy played at chest crushing, ear drum destroying volume followed by an hour of greatest hits.

Ride's first gig for 20 years is a homecoming this Sunday at the O2, Oxford - can't wait!

Wellhead Inn, Wendover. Reaction Club. All of them. Every single last fucker played there.

Plus Heavenly Records parties on the ridiculous Turbosound PA installed in the function room of a country pub with scant regard for licensing laws.

Ride, Dreams Burn Down, Oxford, Easter Sunday, 2015

Shame Ride fans are too polite to stab the twat recording the gig on his phone.

thankfully there were very few wielding phones - and no it wasn't me filming :) Probably a generational thing, the demographic was mainly 40 something
