Re: Jagermeister Gig, Bristol, April 2012 - My Thoughts in Therapy? Live

I own every single Therapy? album, but seem to be alone amongst the hardcore in the fact that Troublegum remains my favourite album of theirs. That’s no diss on the rest of their catalogue… it’s just that that particular album is perfect. So for a set where a large portion of the crowd aren’t specifically there for them, mixing that (which will be the best known stuff amongst the non T? fans) with their ace new album (and bunging in Teethgrinder) worked well for me. I’m sure the headline tour in September will have a more eclectic setlist, but I make no apology for always wanting to hear some Troublegum stuff in there too!

Re: Fyfe to record with Ginger in Other Bands & Artists

All 30 tracks are now available to those that pledged. You can’t get the 30 track triple CD now, which was £20, but you can either get the 30 tracks as a digital download for £10, or for £12 you get a 12 track “best of” (voted by the pledgers) and a download of all 30.

It’s all brilliant stuff if you love Ginger’s music (which I do), but don’t expect the Fyfe tracks to sound like his drumming from the T? days, it’s just him playing on the songs Ginger had written. And I don’t say “just” in a derogatory sense at all; all 30 tracks (Fyfe played on 10) are fantastic.

Re: Fyfe to record with Ginger in Other Bands & Artists

Yes, it’s Denzel drumming on Ginger’s tour in December. Denzel’s one of the few drummers that could keep pace with Fyfe, he’s absolutely incredible. And a lovely bloke to boot.

Ginger said on his Formspring page that he’ll ask Fyfe if he’s up for playing at his birthday gig (December 17th), although that has been sold out for ages. You usually get an extremely eclectic mix of musicians at his birthday gigs - last year including Paul Cook from The Sex Pistols, and Nathan Connolly from… Snow Patrol. Nathan turns out to be a massive Wildhearts fan… whodathunk it?

Did anyone else do all eight screams in Unrequited? That hurt. :)

Very disappointed about the lack of special guests. I was thinking about this so much over the last few weeks, thinking possibly Ginger, Tim Wheeler, Grant Nicholas. Any chance of a proper explaination?

I can answer the Ginger part easily enough. Ginger now plays live with Michael Monroe (ex-Hanoi Rocks), and he/they are currently supporting Motorhead on tour. Think Ash might be touring too.

Incredible gig. Just brilliant.
