My name is very similar to a member of the Happy Mondays
who, incidentally, had about the same level of musical talent as I do.

Does that count?

Couldn't care less
There aren't many good bands from Manchester, Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and Oasis being 3 of the worst.

Actually, She Bangs The Drums is one of my all-time favourite songs
There are other decent tunes on that album but how it's attained deified status is beyond me

the rest are by industrial sadcore bands so really it's a massive step up

It's alright, if you are in your teens and it is the early '90s
But it does not really merit appearing in any "all-time favourite" lists.

I was at the time, but I was listening to Nirvana and such.

When I was 18 I learned all of Squire's twiddly guitar bits to this song.
And I don't mean from a guitar tab off of the internet. I mean sitting with my finger on the pause button of a cassette player and learning it line by line.
I've moved on now, though...

I saw the Happy Mondays live a few years back
I only went because I thought "It's Great When Your Straight... Yeah" was great album and Black Grape had split and the Happy Mondays reformed so I thought, Why not? Then I found out why not.

Never been so cursed, thankfully
I imagine they're great live if you're absolutely munted on every conceivable drug. And in the band.

I've seen the Happy Mondays in Manchester, supported by Shed Seven
It was a good gig! I was not at all pissed as a fart, stoned and on E

Possibly the worst live 'singing' voice I've ever witnessed.
Next to that Sumner wanker, anyway.

I was fucking gutted when I saw New Order live
I tried to put it down to being at Glastonbury and therefore about 2 miles from the stage
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 10 Nov 2011, 10:59, Reply)

It wouldn't have made any difference.
I was near the front when I saw them at Reading and they were utterly shite. Musically they sounded OK, but absolutely zero stage presence and Sumner's vocals made Amy Winehouse in her more fucked up days sound like an angel.
( Davros' Granddad a voice of calm reason in a world of spastics., Thu 10 Nov 2011, 11:04, Reply)

I did wonder if Sumner was even trying
It's a mark of how crap they were that I fucked off to watch Kasabian before they even got as far as True Faith

You're doing it all wrong, Trotter
There must have been at least one band worth watching there?

So your answer is: no
Actually, your fat guy (Romeo something?) is a pretty nifty guitarist, but I still would be looking around for another band to watch.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Thu 10 Nov 2011, 11:25, Reply)

That's exactly what I was trying to convey
I quite liked Kasabian back then, before their shtick got tired. Decent live band too.

He was an arrogant prick.
The Mission were one of the headline acts that weekend. At one point he told the crowd "We don't want fucking Mission fans, we want fucking New Order fans". Cue about 2,000 Mission fans buggering off to the beer tent.

New Order are shit and Bernard Sumner is a cunt.
