[kj] Trial Suspected Spam:Re: Regrets fuck banshees

[Janean Lancaster]

Well said.  I never got to see them, but it's one of my biggest regrets.


And for people to walk out of the Peepshow era gigs - weird, I love that
album.  Maybe some people just prefer the old post punk stuff like The
Scream and Juju.

I'm an ex-goth so I love all that mid/late 80s stuff.

Cheers,
Janean

ALRIGHT ALRIGHT ALRIGHT -- THAT'S ENOUGH!

No more Banshee bashing! I only got to see them as late as the  
PEEPSHOW era and beyond, and still thought they were fucking  
marvelous. I saw their 7 Year Itch tour as well, and was deplorably  
depressed -- `cos it sucked so bad.

But know this: SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES ARE STILL LIGHT YEARS BETTER  
THAN MOST OF THE CRAPPY BANDS WHOSE MERITS ARE TIRELESSLY EXTOLLED ON  
THIS LIST (excluding the `Joke of course -- no one is better than the  
`Joke -- ABSOLUTELY NO ONE).

RESPECT IS DUE!!!
