Hi Mike, Thanks for the reply. I check from time to time "gigography", a valuable source for DC fans. Anyway, it's a pity they haven't made a gig together....
Hi everyone. I saw this article today - "MANCHESTER'S free music festival DPercussion is back this Saturday with hundreds of performers on seven stages spread...
Hi Aleksander, Just by way of additional info, not only did Mozzer not gig with Vini, he didn't tour Viva Hate at all, sadly. He did a one-off gig at ...
After some indecision, I decided to make the 3-hour bus and train round-trip. Arrived at the site at about 4:50 - 25mins before DC's 5:15 onstage time. Due to...
I got the impression from reading interviews (and please someone correct me if I'm wrong) that Morrissey more or less used the Durutti Column as his backup...
Okay, a bit more info required I think... 1) "DC" were not Morrissey's backing band, but Vini played on (and co- wrote most of) Viva Hate. John Metcalfe also...
... co- ... Street ... But ... You're absolutely right on this. However Street produced and performed on "The Guitar and Other Machines" - did that make him a...
Hi Paul Thanks for the Psycho identification, been away for last few weeks, apologies for non response. Followed the link to Metromagazine but no article...
No idea why why that other one doesn't work, but try this instead http://www.metronews.co.uk/magazine/archive/ then scroll down to "04/08/2005: Vini Reilly:...
... Hi Ian, Yes, I did see that... and I'm ashamed to admit that I was still thinking about it when the answer was revealed, prompting me to mutter "oops, I...
Hi Paul Link fine now, read the article. A little disturbed to hear that Vini actually likes the upcoming new album. Sounds ominous, never heard him be...
... 1st track, first album, first thing I ever heard by Vini. That was 20 odd years ago. Played Sketch for Summer today, still sounds fresh and wonderful. ...
... Vini and Bruce in equal measure continue to blow me away. They are in the soundtrack of my life like almost no others - Hendrix, Beefheart, Jansch, Michael...
... Well, I know what you mean, but I have heard him be enthusiastic about new/ fortcoming albums before. However, at some point he usually changes his mind...
Not sure that this has ever been mentioned before but I've just noticed that there are some photos of this gig on the well-hidden-from-search-engines official...
No Kooky do not have the masters. It will be a release a-la "Live at the Venue", mastered from vinyl. Knowing Phil (and Keir may be doing the remaster?), it's...
Well, some of us weren't very impressed with Keir's efforts on "Live at the Venue" (and are working on our own "remaster"). Just hope they've located a less...
Hhmmm I am with Paul on this one. There was a lot of messages at the time of Live at the Venue's release on CD that all was not well with the sound quality....
Ok, so maybe Keir is not the best remasterer (is that a word?), but at least this is getting it's proper due. I'm trying to be positive. As for Live at the...
... Yeah, I got it. Luckily, the DIME maintainers didn't ban it, since they don't permit alternate versions of the same performance, even aud vs sbd. So,...
... Okay, it shall appear tomorrow night! Details will be provided once this has been seeded (privately, as it does violate DIME's policies) --Sam ... "do i...
