[kj] Scott Shite (OT)

[sade1]

   Big Country sound like I could really like them if I gave a fair chance and 
listened beyond their radio hits (which I've always liked anyway). 

Out of musical curiousity I'd go see them if they played here in L.A. (i mean, 
shit, OMD are back and am prolly gonna see them), and i'm guessing I'd leave 
surprised as all hell by a great show like when I went to see Psychedelic Furs 
in Orange County: they kicked ass and rocked out beyond all expectations. 

Besides, I love the sound of bagpipes cranked out by guitars.

Anyway..

I have nothing against Big Country, but I did see them once and I barely 
remember the show--nothing wrong w/it, just not very exciting. I also remember 
owning their 2nd album, I think,
Steeltown, and remember it being very very close to unlistenable 
(sophomore slump?). That being said, I would think about seeing them if they 
play the US (just for kicks--how often do you 

get to hear guitars that sound like babpipes)??
