The band, led by Ade Edmondson, were superb. All brilliant musicians and Ade can sing well whilst playing 'thrash mandolin'. The gig was really good with some great re-inventions of classics like Down The Tube Station At Midnight, London Calling, I Fought The Law, Up The Junction, Teenage Kicks etc.. I can highly recommend them if you get the chance to see them live.
Also, just yesterday I completed a long standing mission to obtain lots of the obscure stuff I has on tape as a kid on CD. Thanks to ebay this has been a huge success with the final two purchases being Tora Tora's self-title debut album and Mindfunk's self-title debut.
Sounds good Woody. I saw the Anvil film at the cinema but bought it on
DVD (only a fiver!) and it was just as entertaining second time round.
In fact it was probably even more entertaining, as it was with a few
mates and we were cracking up at just how similar to Spinal Tap the
whole thing is.
NLT - The Dead End by Abandon.
Depressing and crushing extreme doom metal...love it!

It's in the car Kat, so I'll be playing it ad nauseum, but I think when I drive I concentrate more on driving than the music so I'll copy it to my iRiver MP3 player too, turn the volume up to full and damage my ears.
I envy you seeing them. I thought their early albums were terrific, but Alice In Chains was very dark in comparison, but I saw a clip of them on some TV show in the US playing live and I thought they were excellent.
Still, in the last week I've seen Gary Moore, Magnum and tonight, the utterly magnificent Y&T, so I can't complain too much.
