Not in Crawley Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 My first one - and I can't even see the acts on this show poster - shows how differently they used to be sold. Didn't realise it was the 25th and last week's was the 50th! Christ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think we stayed in a hotel in Telford that ran a minibus, fuck camping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did the Chelmsford one Camped but had access to a hotel where we showered and shit Saturday morning I look back with regret I didn't see BRMC, Kasabian, Kings of Leon and maybe Strokes and Muse but too busy in the "back stage" bit getting drunk and stoned with no queues for beer and portaloos Probably the best charlatans set of all the ones I've seen though, about 5pm in the hot sun nicely drunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Only just realised Michael Monroe is playing with GnR. Love Hanoi Rocks and actually his last single was great - sadly overlooked Rock n Roll band and got overtaken in the US by all the cartoonish rubbish of LA hair metal, which missed out on all the punk, Bowie, Johnny Thunders influenced stuff from this band.

You might be interested to know that Michael Monroe is fronting a reunion tour for Lords of the New Church featuring original Damned guitarist Brian James. Sadly the original lead singer Stiv Bators is no longer with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be in my Dead Boys t-shirt tomorrow, let all the Adele fans wear their Primark GnR shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As usual spent pretty much all of Sunday at the Concrete Jungle stage apart from Rancid on the main stage. 28 Days who were on the concrete jungle stage at the time played to a pretty much empty tent.

Always remember Rancid singer dedicating a song to his dead brother. Then organising a circle pit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was 2 'pits' at rancid one full of folk skanking away and the other a mosh pit every so often someone would end up in the wrong one look confused then dissappear back to their nominated pit.
