the lineup for that gig looks fucking incredible.
ridiculously good.
I've been getting ( back ) into Alice in Chains lately. Those harmonies between Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell are amazing.
They're in STP/Soundgarden territory in terms of awesomeness now.

Ozzy is pretty fucked so I doubt he'll be moving around the stage too much. It's only Bill Ward that hasn't been in the latest version of the band.
I've only seen AIC with William DuVall, they were excellent.
Yeah, I saw them on a doco on the big screen, they were all about 70 odd, touring and sounding awesome. Ward wasn't there, some young 30 something year old was on the sticks. I heard he didn't tour because he was basically too old ? drumming is a young mans game......
I doubt he can manage anything like this nowadays, this is some of the best drumming you'll hear, so much power and class.

My brother taped the Ronnie Lane Appeal for Arms off the telly back in the mid-80s. Found it on Youtube recently.
Lots of big names played - Clapton, Winwood, Beck, Page, Wyman and Watts - among others. Lots no longer with us.
The set list is in this Wiki page (along with more detail) - I'll recommend Ray Cooper's demented bongo solo in Rita Mae (at 11.30) and Jeff Beck doing a live version of Hi Ho Silver Lining (at 1.13.00).

Wasted two mornings trying to get tickets to Villa park for Sabbath et al. Fail. Shame, as it's a hell of a line up.
In better news, I have secured tickets to Jerry Cantrell at a 2,000 capacity venue in a couple of months. Really looking forward to it, AIC an all time fave band and I really dig his new stuff.
From a bromance perspective, my wife thinks he's my style icon too. Sans the long hair of course. Only Jay Mascis can pull off long grey hair.

Just read that Rick Buckler (the Jam) passed so am listening to some of the Jams hits right now.

i had never even heard of these guys until a random song on a random Spotify play list threw them at me the other day and it made me sit up and listen. And i cannot get enough.
Fucking love it.

I know it's not about him given his recently departed bandmate.......but Paul Weller went between genres brilliantly in that era. From Punk to New Wave pop to kind of alternative by the early 90s.
Fantastic artist.

Amen.
Style Council were amazing and then his stuff in the kid 90s stood up to the Britpop indie that was all the rage.
He had an incredible 20 year run.
Talented guy. A bunch of very different but terrific tunes

Been listening to Zenyatta Mondatta the past couple of days..... My favourite track off the album.
One of my favourite songs instrumentally, such great baseline and drums.
The Police were such a good power trio. Was just listening to this the other day !
A amazingly talented group of guys that just gelled. Sting obviously went a bit sappy but they could rock with the best of them in their day.
Loads of diverse stuff in their brief career. I also love this wee number.
