Wall of Mouths

Check NMA on Youtube, its well worth it if you haven’t got any of their albums.

Chances are I won’t be at any of these gigs, but support the cause none the less.

Was this for the New Model Army gig? If it is, its pretty impressive.

That sounds like a top gig to me.

And so…?

Be nice if they played Swansea this time. I know where the Barfly is in Cardiff, so that might be alright.

I’ve read Andy’s statements and its understandable. If the interest isn’t there, how the hell can the band go over there? This isn’t a question of fanbase but the agents and record company bollocks of it all.

Perhaps because the cold spell that most of us went through might have something to do with it (well, their profile did drop quite a bit), perhaps they shouldn’t have spent the year they were there, but T? are human beings themselves and make mistakes.

Don’t think its just in the UK where their profile dropped - in the statement, Andy said that France had forgotten them.

Its a long complicated matter, but unless they repackaged themselves as a metal boy band, I doubt that they’ll be playing every stadium that the world has to offer…and I’m not saying that as a put down.

Coming to think about, other than the UK, where else do they have a fair size following?

I’d have no idea where to go - I’d be lost in London. Anyway, its going to be costly. Should tour the thing, not have it as a one off.

That was a fucking cool interview. More importently, ROLL FEBRUARY 2006.

Swansea wouldn’t go a miss

This is the Kerrang review at the Napster Stage, Download:

‘THERAPY?(KKKK)first played here in 1994, and they’re rewarding the faithful with a greatest hits set, the whole tent clapping along to ‘Die Laughing’, while twin show stoppers ‘Going Nowhere’ and ‘Screamager’ leave shit eating grins on the most battle-weary of faces. The Napstar Stage couldn’t have ended on a better high.’

Not a bad review, I say.

Right, I just hope Kerrang! gives them a good review, and send them back to the top.

Right, come on, who went to Donington yesterday then? Come on, some of us would like to know how our favorate band went down.

I’m waiting…

What was the turn out like? I just want to know, that’s all.

How about Swansea! They last played there five years ago in Singleton park and about 4 thousend were there out of a possible 15 thousend. They went down well, better Motorhead, who were headlining.

Think about this lads!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Title: merged thread

I’m gutted. Why? Cause Therapy? are playing Newport later this year (December 3rd, if I remember rightly) and I don’t know anyone who’s going up. I’d be ha[[y to chip for petrol and all that…hang on, I’m going off the rails here.

But I remember the first time I saw this band though. November 30th, 1994, at the peak of the Troublegum era. They were warned not to play Potato Junkie cause of the line, ‘James Joyce is ####### my sister’. Something to do with the Criminal Justice Bill, or something.

But anyway, they played the song and replaced James Joyce to John Major. Class. Still remember the first songs they opened with as well. ‘Isolation’, ‘Turn’ and the opening track on ‘Nurse’.

I’d seen them four times since, both when everyone loved them (Donington 1995, Newport October 1995) to the time when they dropped them and played smaller venues. I saw them in Aberristwith (I know, I spelt that wrong)in November 1998 and at a poorly attended festival in Swansea in July/August 2000.

However, its always the best the first time.
