Title: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: dell boy on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 12:00:27 It should be great again this year.
Have a look at the line up old farts - mind you I hope Boy George is taken sick and doesn't perform. http://www.rewindfestival.com/ Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: dell boy on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 12:01:28 Saturday and Sundays line up Saturday BOY GEORGE RICK ASTLEY LEVEL 42 JIMMY SOMERVILLE THE WEATHER GIRLS T’PAU KAJAGOOGOO HEAVEN 17 IMAGINATION CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT ALTERED IMAGES MODERN ROMANCE Sunday TONY HADLEY WITH ABC AND GO WEST MARC ALMOND BJORN AGAIN MIDGE URE KID CREOLE AND THE COCONUTS CHESNEY HAWKES 10CC HAZEL O’CONNOR ODYSSEY JOHNNY HATES JAZZ THE BEAT Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: Batch on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 12:15:24 JOHNNY HATES JAZZ Turning back the clock.

I was so pleased when pub rock, bands like Graham Parker and the Rumour and Dr Feelgood kicked that shit into touch, then the whole punk thing happened. Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: pauld on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 14:07:05 You know, I like 80s music but there's some truly awful acts in that line-up. Two days? Strip out the dross and you might get an afternoon's worth watching

Good shout reg. Dr Feelgood sort of made it but Graham Parker and the Rumour were a very, very underrated band. Now you've mentioned them I'll have to dig out my old records.The line up for this festival is complete and utter shite. Its the equivalent of the worst 20-players ever to put on a Town shirt - dross after dross. Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: Arriba on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 18:02:35 can't say those acts appeal to me.some are ok but some right stinkers in there too.
i see shalimar are coming to the oasis,alongside steve brookstein and kenny thomas.i reckon it will get scrapped due to the lack of interest Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 19:44:41 except the beat its all shit
Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: Talk Talk on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 19:47:02 except the beat its all shit Imagination were pretty cool if you liked 'proper' disco. Level 42 had a few good toons as well. Yup, deffo the Beat though. Title: Re: The Henley 80s Rewind Festival Post by: suttonred on Sunday, February 28, 2010, 22:08:31 Pretty much a right pile of bollocks. I'm pretty sure i saw Imagination at the Brunel rooms early 80's, can anyone confirm i'm not dreaming? Booze addeled?
