Saw the Gristle live in 1980 at the Scala in Kings x. Leather Nun from Sweden were supporting. They didn't come on till 0300 hrs The bass was very loud and subsonic, shook you to the core. The strobes were blinding, but the sound was crystal clear, as good as anything you'll ever hear clarity- wise. This is about the nearest I could find to this. Read Cosey's autobiog last year and Neil Megson comes across as a manipulative bully and a hypocrite, but the uncompromising music continues to influence people to this day. .
One of my claims to fame , several years ago I stood next to him having a pee at the Watford Gap services. That's all. I loved his humour.
It seems ex Cardiff City player Peter Whittingham 35 has died after a fall at home. No official confirmation as yet.
.. conflicting reports.... some say in intensive care, some say his life support has been turned off... either way as has been said at 35 thats not good...
When we landed back from Oz at Manchester Airport on 01/03 we saw Floyd’s jet parked up, MAYWEATHER in massive letters on the side. Warralife! RIP Roger
Even Wikipedia had him as having passed away last night. Fingers crossed he's OK. Was a fantastic Championship player.
Well here is an odd one. I have heard that Prince Phillip has died but it will not be announced until later in the week..not virus related.
