Saw Bryan Adams at the Motorpoint in Nottingham a couple of weeks ago... he was seriously good!
Haha I got dragged along to a Bryan Adams gig yonks ago and enjoyed it a hell of a lot more than I thought I would. Fair play to the guy. I really need to have seen the Fall live I think, i still can't decide if I love or hate them (I know that makes no sense). |

The Fall can be described as uneasy listening, not everyone's cup of tea, but they do make a very decent racket live. |

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

I love a lot of music, but I've always been a Bryan Adams fan.. just think he's brilliant. Seriously good live too. |

For me, having a front man that can't sing is the worst thing I can think of about a band. I went to see Ian Brown in Luxembourg and it was far and away the worst gig I've ever been to. The loudest was Mogwai in Luxembourg and they don't have any singers, that was awesome. |

The Damned at the Albert Hall tonight.
40 years on, still a great live band.

Public Image in Oxford tonight.
John Lydon is no Mario Lanza in terms of vocals, but he's a top bloke and PIL are still original in their sound.

Nick Cave is another who could be classed in the "can't sing" category, but nevertheless a brilliant song writer backed up by a fantastic band. |

Indeed, good music is much much more than just being able to sing or play an instrument. |
