Mantaray has been on constantly in the car for two days now - I love it and it suprises me that I do. She is morphing into Shirley Bassey but the songs are great

I'll tell everyone how good the Altar show was.....

<<< Listening to the new Siouxsie CD Manatray >>>



I really must get this. A few months ago I re-discovered the Banshees and listened to little else for a while. I'm so jealous of anyone who's going to see her in London. I'd love to go, but I'm too chicken to go London on me own! I get lost very easily and the Tube reminds me of the League of Gentlemen where Tubbs can't understand a map - "Lines and lines and lines."



Bloody London! Always pisses me off when bands only play there. Boris and Sunn O))) doing Altar - I'd love to see that too.



Cheers,

Janean

Very well thanks after an extended weekend break in Wales. Bit sad summer is almost over .

4.. Heard anything good lately that you'd like to share ?
Listening to the new Siouxsie CD Manatray interspersed with lots Jesus And Mary Chain.

5.. Where do you stand on the great 'Hosannas' debate ?
a) it's a flawed masterpiece - classic KJ

b) it sucks a big fat one

c) the songs are fine but the sound is awful

d) its OK



A mix between a) and c).

I like it a lot but can see why it get so much stick..



6.. If KJ were to do one of those one off gigs where they play one of their classic albums all the way through, which one should they do ?
Whats This For...

7.. Favourite 3 KJ album covers.......?
The first three and especially Whats This For... the best album cover ever.

8.. Least favourite KJ album cover
I think you call this a no brainer (handy for me) KJ2003

9.. Which is it to be - King Crimson or Queen ?
a)King Crimson

b) Queen

c) both of the above

d) neither of the above - I'm a Rush fan

Only know a touch of King Crimson (will put them on my "to do" list) and Queen did listenable stuff...so c)

10.. Which Queen song would you like to see KJ cover ?
None

11.. And which Crimso tune ?
None

12.. Whats Geordie's solo album going to sound like ?
Bloody good with, hopefully, that older tarditional less heavy KJ guitar sound

13.. Got any good gigs coming up ?
Gold Blade, 999, and UK Subs all in Blackburn. Wedding Present, The Fall, Slaughter & The Dogs all Manchester, Carter USM, Neds Atomic Dustbin (maybe), as many of the New model Army as poss, hopefully the soon to be annouced Gang Of Four dates early next year., and last but least the secret KJ gig in my back garden.

a) it's a flawed masterpiece - classic KJ

b) it sucks a big fat one

c) the songs are fine but the sound is awful

d) its OK

d)

15.. Peter West - is he
a) a top bloke - the Gathering would be a duller place without his lively contributions

b) He remains the consummate wind-up merchant - never fails in getting someone's hackles up.

c) A slightly sad character with too much time on his hands and an over large chip on his shoulder

d) Peter who ?

e) None of the above

A mix of a) and b)

If it winds you up just delete it. I

Probably shouldn't say this but sinse you asked 've found some of it quite funny.
