  1. This path you are on? Why did it seemingly give way and make you fall down a mountain?
  2. When did the UK pass a law even remotely similar to this in any member of VTs lifetime?
  3. Gambling used to be taxed. But here’s the thing, it’s the poor that gamble.
  4. I think we're assuming Gem Archer is playing though
  5. Black Sabbath and Deep Purple enter the conversation
  6. They are the only two consistent members of the band aren't they? I suppose there is an argument for Andy Bell because he did write a few of their later numbers.
  7. The last two nights have been massive compared to recent drone / missile attacks. But troops are reportedly on the move but it will take them a fair amount of time to move around. Also I think I read somewhere that Russia were digging a trench line 45 kms away from where Ukraine currently is but hey what do I know, could also all be bollocks.
  8. Plenty of bands like that. The Bunnymen... Will and Mac haven't spoken in years. You ask Will why he carries on and he says "It's a job"
  9. You mean apart from the billion dollar drone strikes they've made the last two days.
  10. Played killer pool with him and Craig Johnston at the same time, can I get a share of the royalties from Predator football boots too
  11. The industry are the touts. The secondary selling websites are owned by the primary selling websites who are owned by... the big industry players. All they did was get the government to only allow themselves to be touts.
  12. Yep, back in the day before all this nonsense started it would be ticket price plus booking fee. £12 ticket and a £1 booking fee for the box office, the promoter saw nothing of the pound and everyone got a paper ticket, that they queues up to get for popular shows.
  13. There really needs to be a government investigation into those practices. I remember when this all started and the music biz lobbied hard for the government to effectively outlaw ticket touting. This situation was the obvious outcome even then
  14. Zak was the drummer for the Icicle Works too when Sharrock left I may have shared the odd illicit cigarette with him in that period. It’s just yet another Oasis would be nothing without the Liverpool connection
  15. I'm really not in favour of multiculturalism in biscuits
  16. Who is in their respective bands that were actually in Oasis at any point, touring Oasis not fully fledged band members? That'll probably be the starting point. I reckon Sharrock gets the drum slot because he's been in both their bands and similarly Gem Archer too
  17. The record is Take That's as far as I'm aware. Both did 8, Take That did 8 in a row Swift didn't
  18. Yeah they can, ships with a home port in the Black Sea can move through the canal, what can’t happen in times of war is Russia bringing in ships with home ports not in the Black Sea. So they can’t replace ships they’ve lost from their other fleets. The BSF still exists but it has moved out of Sevastopol where it was too easy to attack (Even the BSF HQ was attacked by missiles). What is left of the fleet is now based in Novorossiysk which is relatively safe distance wise from missile attack.
  19. It’s a lot of support bands too, if it was all them then they'd be rotating / taking it in turns and that makes little sense logistically.
  20. 16 consecutive gigs at Wembley? In June, in a year between a WC and EC For reference, the current record is Take That in 2011 with 8 (and that was when the little fat dancer returned to the fold) Even Taylor Swift only managed 8 and they weren’t consecutive. 16 consecutive dates is just mentalist
  21. Oh the very strong rumours are supports will be Kasabian and Blossoms Blossoms already hinting it will be them
