    So many good live performances from the Faces on YouTube but I have to put this one in because, remarkably for a TV show, the mix is great. Ron’s guitar cranked up, solid kick and snare from Kenney, even Ronnie’s Bass cuts through.

    Extra points for two great, and completely different riffs in the first minute.

    Amazing to think that to replace Steve Marriot, the guys needed Rod Stewart AND Ron Wood.
    The results were epic though. The ultimate rock and roll band.

    And also to think that when they split it was to fill the shoes of Brian Jones and Keith Moon.

    I went to gig in London a year back by Kenney Jones. Has assembled a band to play highlights from his career. Pretty amazing repertoire.

    you read these guys' books, and it was this incestuous little group that just kept forming bands, or performing on each others albums. It sounded like an amazing time.

    Last one for the day. This performance from the Reverend Al just blows me away. Apart from the vocals themselves, microphone management from Green (and possibly the sound guy) is incredible. One second he is right up in it then he’s doing a breathy falsetto from three feet away.

    I also wonder whatever became of that lucky little kid in the front row that looks so enthralled.

    Things aren't looking good for two big gigs in May. FNM and Iron Maiden. Following Metallica's postponement, I won't be a happy chappy.

    @antipodean Maiden's Aust and NZ concerts have already been postponed until further notice.

    My concert attendance this year has consisted of 1/2 an Elton John gig, one cancellation and two postponements due to covid-19.

    I’m on nothing this year, Pixies cancelled, the show on the Saturday night that Pixies were on that claimed they weren’t cancelling after we bought tickets on Friday afternoon, then Bluesfest cancelled.

    I saw Elton last year do at least got that out of the way.

    I saw Elton John and Billy Joel back in 1998 so had seen him previously. We were 4th row with the rich bastards (e.g., lawyers) due to having a contact at the ticket office. One of the best concerts I have been to.

    Good little doco on BBC at the moment about how much of the Brit rock history stems from Eel Pie Island.
    Always interesting how often you can trace so much really famous stuff back to one source or unsung hero.

    Daughter is doing some school project, and needed to have my single favourite song ever.

    Obviously impossible, but I had to come up with one.

    I went with Black by Pearl Jam

    If you HAD to choose a single favourite, what would it be???

    OOOO.... I can see me getting lost in TSF today! I can always narrow it down to two, but never choose which between it.

    Dream On - Aerosmith
    Drown - Smashing Pumpkins

    Niiice. Introduced my 11yr old to the Pumpkins a few weeks ago. He's a keen guitarist, loves Nirvana (most of all), Metallica and 80's/90's rock with any heavy guitar, took to them pretty quickly.

    @voodoo The ironic thing is that I'm actually a bit here nor there on both of those bands. I'm a fan yes, but neither would likely be in my top 10 bands. The pumpkins for me have far too many peaks and troughs. And Aerosmith, although I certainly enjoy, I've never felt the desire to listen to one of their albums in full.
