I know I missed a comma before and, bad english but heh. I saw them twice.

M62.

-AC

The Verve.

*hides*

Yeah...if the losers didn't split up. I'd give anything to see that band get together again...talk about leaving they're fans in agony with a beauty like "Come On" as their last ever album track.

The Verve were shit

bittersweet symphony is a genuinely brilliant single, but the rest of their stuff was distinctly mediocre if i recall.

Correct

Dickie Ashcroft ex of The Verve has delusions of grandeur

near as i can tell, "delusional" is the ONLY type of grandeur.

well hello mr fancypants!

how'd you know i was wearing my fancy pants? 😖hifty:

i didnt but now i do

delusions of grandeur....see thats what you get if you quote from a George Lucas script
you get corrected

What's wrong with delusions of grandeur?

Manic Street Preachers

I think Sonnet and Bittersweet Symphany are both really good songs.

i dont know
what they sound like??

Kind of like The Verve.

i watched the Brits last night for the first time in an age as it was live(i thought someone might have done something like decapitate James Morrison or say a few rude words.........sadly this never happened)
and i have to say i thought Liam Gallaghers perfomance was attrocious
his singing was terrible not in a John Lydon/Sean Ryder bad but good way but just ****ing awful
its good to see a band who have released the same album since 95 get such praise

elswhere we were treated to Amy Winehouse doing shit weve heard already
the Chilli peppers doing the same old tired funk rock workout
the Scissor Sisters doing Leo Sayer,KC,Elton
plus The Artic John Cooper Clarkeys being wacky and who the **** voted for Orson??
although its good too see The Frattelis win they aint exactly doing anything other than what shit loads of bands were knocking out from 78 - 81

i know its just a big back slapping cock sucking wankfest but jesus

i never really cared much for them but THE KILLERS were ****ing excellent last night

well i never

Go go Killers.

Didn't that Russell Brand guy present it? God he's everywhere at the moment, kind of annoying. Have to say though, my girlfriend made me watch his live DVD the other week and he's a really, really good standup. Very funny.
