[Santa]

I believe it's on various bbc channels, probably mostly on digital. Hadn't heard anything about the pistols, but as they were a three piece band and one of 'ems dead would have thought it unlikely! :confused:

[smeghead]

tis the original line up john,steve paul and glen

[Santa]

I stand corrected!

[Bosun]

with our blue suede shoes
and our dancin the night away.

We sang shang-a-lang
as we ran with the gang
doin doo wop be dooby do eye
with the jukebox playing and every body saying that
music like ours couldn't die
*
we were grooving
we were movin
pussyfootin and booting it round.
we were boppin it
we were hoppin it
we were jumping to the shang-a-lang sound of the music,....*CHORUS

shang-a-lang,
shang-a-lang,
shang-a-lang
shang-a-lang, shang-a-lang, shang-a-lang

[excalibur]

btw....whats this fucking **** thats on now?

[excalibur]

has someone been having us on about the pistols?

Ive had it on the last few hours and no mention......checked the live aid site as well but nothing



Think it was a ploy to get people like me to watch this......though I can put up with Velvet Revolver mostly its been crap

[smeghead]

the pistols are mentioned in the tv book we have but not on the live 8 site, they better be on or i've just wasted a whole day :lol: oh and how many smokes does slash want :D

[kitkatman]

[Dougie]

Reckon Slash attended the Keef Richards school of Rock'n'Roll! :D
Aw sh!te,Sting's just arrived! :mad: So why ain't he out saving the Amazon Jungle (sorry,rainforest) then?Is it not trendy anymore? :confused:

[excalibur]

I remember takin the piss out of this girl in the 3rd year at school for buying this





to you younger folks the third year was like your year 9 or something like that

[Dougie]

You gotta admit though,Stewart Copeland was one helluva drummer! :D

[Dougie]

Mariah FECKIN' Carey? :mad:

[smeghead]

[excalibur]

[Mistress Maker]

the floyd and the who were fookin brill , do ya think someone can book em now for the stormin ??? :D

[Dougie]

When Floyd came on I thought "who's that auld bastart on the steel guitar?Jeezus it's Dave Gilmour! :eek: Time has NOT been kind!"
He's still one mean guitarist tho',Bit disappointed there was no fisticuffs between him and Waters........ :D

[excalibur]

anyone know what happened to the pistols?

[Sheltie]

The pistols were never going to be on the first I'ld heard of this romour was on here. But we all know geldof woud say anything to get everyone to watch.

BTW floyd were the best of the whole show.

[Dougie]

The Pistols?
They sold out years ago......Oh,last night you mean? Sorry,no. :D


Got me coat,I'll just get me hat!

[smeghead]

the rumors were all over the press,(it also appeared in the tv listings) it was stated geldof asked the band to play and johnny finally agreed, but yup twas probably geldof bs'in to get people like me to watch
to quote johnny

'ever felt you've been cheated' :D

and yup the who and floyd made it worth watching :D

[Dougie]

Not bad for a gang of old hippies,eh?

[Mad Dog]

What can I say.

Old fekkers showing the youngsters how to produce music, sing and play instruments.

Up yours "poptarts".

only saw the highlights of the earlier stuff, but kept checking back to see when Floyd were on.

Brilliant - The Who - if a little strained in places.

then

Pink Floyd - absolutely fekkin marvellous,
took me back 30 years,
last saw them at Knebworth - and a result - NO "Brick in the Wall" - just good old classic Floyd.
Well done guys for putting the past behind you and presenting a piece of extremely well performed music.
"Comfortably Numb" - the proper and original version - there yer go Sissor Sisters - stick that in yer pipe. :D

MD
Grumpy old Man
RIP John Peel.

Am I the only person who was upset by the SS cap badge Velvet Revolver's singer was wearing? :mad: They did use all the rock and roll cliche's up in three songs though!

Oh yes 'Oi Slash! Put that fag out!' :eek:

[Dougie]

Am I the only person who was upset by the SS cap badge Velvet Revolver's singer was wearing? :mad: They did use all the rock and roll cliche's up in three songs though!

Oh yes 'Oi Slash! Put that fag out!' :eek:
Wasn't SS m8,that had three crossed bones.It was closer to the 17th/21st Lancers cap badge.

[brandersnatch]

I stand corrected, not an expert, I'll not be so upset now. :D

[pingusprogressed]

It's not a big gig unless the Bay City Rollers are there! :D
