Concert From Hyde Park Last Night On Tv ?

[Evans Electric]

Anyone see it ?   Jeff Lynne must one of the most underestimated talents in Pop music I'd think .     Par for the course I guess with an industry based on 12 yr old boy " bands"  or girl "bands" who specialise in singing off key .

The Move

ELO

Travelling Willbourys

Producing

Writing

Etc.

No affected mannerisms  , no ridiculous clothes and constant clutching of the genitels  .............walks on and does the business , effortlessly .

Oh  hes a Brummie too :C   .......Oh I didn't know   :innocent

 

[sprocketflup]

The mans a legend in musical quarters, but as you say deke, modern 'music' has no truck with such notions

 

[Evans Electric]

For a primate , you have great insight Sprocket :Salute

 

[Sidewinder]

On the same tack, how many artists/bands with a 67 yr old Geordie lead singer who is in the habit of wearing a flat cap on stage, could sell out Wembley stadium in 20 mins?...

Oh, and BTW, who has a ticket to see said band?...  

 

[sprocketflup]

The mighty ACDC played my home towns civic hall in 1976. I was only 5 years old else Id have gone and seen em

 

[Sidewinder]

Nice reading between the lines sproc!

Go on, ask me where I will be on the evening of the 4th of July 2015! ...

 

[Evans Electric]

.......erm...by the way Sidey , where will you be on 4 July 2015 ?

 

[Sidewinder]

Deke,

As FSOTY, I thought that you were omnipotent!

I will be at Wembley stadium.

There is a small little known band doing a concert there it seems.

Ah yes

Tony Cable and the Sycophants are headlining

Supported by Emma and the Munchers

Darren and the Questions are opening the second set, as they have been asked to do it so many times on the Hotline

 

[Evans Electric]

Is'nt Wayne Fontana and The Conduit Benders on in the first half ?    So its not Tony Cable & the Jointers anymore then ? 

Talking  about ACDC  wasn't there a strange band called Sparks once upon a time ?

 

[Sidewinder]

There was a band called sparks yes Deke.

 

[sprocketflup]

Deke, this town aint big enough for the both of us.

so, seeing as youre FSOTM, ill be off then.......

 

[Evans Electric]

OK Sprocket , see you later but always remember........the day will come when I shall descend from Mount Olympus .... pass on the Mantle of Power and the Golden Stocks & Dies and once again walk the earth as a mere mortal,   the tools of our trade will be returned , credit cards reactivated and the keys to the Dekemobile returned  and another will be chosen from our ranks .....................it could be YOU..... :C
