Confession time: Don't own a single piece of music by them and don't know much of their stuff. Big-ish band who've always passed me by...and when I hear them on t'radio I'm never inclined to change that.
I used to own Bandwagonesque on cassette - probably still in a box somewhere. But I do have and heartily recommend Grand Prix: fantastic songwriting from start to finish.
Saw them once before - supporting Nirvana in 1992!
Was a MASSIVE fan of Bandwagonesque in the day - the first album I played at in my room at university I believe. I love Thirteen, but have never really gelled with Grand Prix, putting me at odds with most of the rest of the civilised world.

ReplyDeleteGig was last night. Very enjoyable. Two hours and all the hits (inc. six(!) off Grand Prix).
ReplyDeleteMainly for Sam, here's the setlist:
