Very enjoyable evening at the CIA/Motorpoint/Utilita tonight. Lovely bit of nostalgia.

Re: Bootleg Beatles

Saw them last year and they put on a great show.
Slightly disturbing was the Paul McCartney person as he appeared to have had some dubious plastic surgery to look like the original.
Compare that to the drummer who had some dodgy wigs and noses, which he soon disposed of.

Re: Bootleg Beatles

I've never been into bands who try to imitate others.

I don't mind when there are a few covers, but dressing up the same and copying mannerisms of thr band members is a bit embarrassing.

I always wonder why can't they do their own stuff?

I think if you were in a covers band getting paid big bucks you would not find it embarrassing in the slightest.

Not everybody is creative enough to write their own music. I play guitar to a reasonable level (sort of) but alas songwriting is not a gift that has been bestowed on me.

They usually play St David's Hall this time of year so I assume it was moved because of the closure.

I thought as much

Although the CIA isn't a very big arena as things go I wouldn't have thought it would be their kind of venue

Sabbath Tribute , Children Of The Gravy

Bridgend On Tour

In the late 70's/early 80's there was a programme on BBC Wales regarding the 3 blocks of flats in Ball Road Llanrumney and the social problems being experienced there. To make it more sinister, they had Children Of The Grave as the backing track, which I found quite hilarious being both a Sabbath fan and a Llanrumney boy.

Are the flats still there or has the devil demolished them ?
