OT - Music. Gigs. Sounds bought.

No exceptions - I don't dance, period. But that doesn't stop me liking reggae

Never said it did You're much like my owd fella by the sound of it. Music was to be listened to, not danced to, was the mantra. Like you, he too had 3 left feet. Me Mam loved dancing which I probably inherited off her. My late brother would get on the dancefloor on the very odd occasion.

Nowt wrong in being a listener. Out on the floor, I feel the music, as well as hear it. Hairs on the back of the neck stuff. Especially when accompanied by like minded souls. Certain songs invite claps at certain points, the feeling generated when there's north of 1000 on the dancefloor and the claps are in unison, sounding like thunder and feeling..... well, uplifting, spiritual. It's a sensation I'd love everybody to get, feel and understand. Won't happen but it's something I'd wish for everybody. One of the reasons I never felt the need for French Blues or Black Bombers etc at a nighter. Adrenaline works wonders.

Sad to hear of the death of Gary Rossington, last original member of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Skynyrd were the band that made me want to be in a band, and I’ve sung Sweet Home Alabama more than any other song. Farewell, Free Bird

I battled through the elements to a gig in Bilston last eve, veterans MAN,who rocked as ever. Highlight of the show was ‘Romaine’, one of the all time great songs about police brutality (in Belgium), sung by the victim of the original incident, Martin Ace. Welsh Lives Mattered.
