That was some gig! Reminiscent of TJ’s sweatbox shows of old with the whole place going off! We were queueing by 7.30 and in by about 8.30 so we got a decent spot where it wasn’t too rammed. You missed a good one tonight hopefully I got some decent pics too :-)

Turd, that link was intended to be for the Skindred Homecoming Group on Facebook but it fucked up. Show is on, in Bassment and original tickets are still valid

OK, scratch that last question, I’ve just had a message from one of the band and it is in the Bassment http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/event.php?eid=376330711335&ref=nf

Amazing! Is it still in TJ’s as I’ve just seen a post a few secs ago on the Skindred FB page from Vice saying that its on but in the Bassment on Stow Hill

Dean who owns Rockaway Records/Kriminal Records should have some info by tomorrow so I will update as I hear what is happening

Cheers for the link to the interview, I’ll definately be at the Skindred show on Friday so will raise a dark rum for John

Skindred in Newport if it still goes ahead on Friday or Cocksparrer in london next week

Quite a few walkouts and the older I get the less tolerant I become.

Motorhead on quite a few occasions because the sound is always so pisspoor it sounds like the same song 15 times.
GLC not sure what I expected really but it was full of student cuntbags wearing supposedly ironic t shirts
Suicidal Tendencies on Saturday, not because they were shit but because I thought I was going to vom
Exodus early show with Dukes after Steve Souza left
Anthrax with Belladonna

Have jibbed off plenty of festival bands purely for shiteness;
Cradle of Filth
Tool
Paradise Lost
Kreator

Oh yeah and Gwen Stefani! That was a competition win where I got a free trip to NYC to see Gwen Stefani but I left after 30 minutes and went to the Superbowl of Hardcore in Brooklyn to see Negative Approach instead

Everyone had a huge amount of respect for him and you knew you’d crossed the line if you got one of his legendary clips round the earhole! A very warm and funny man who will be greatly missed

Many of you will have been to T? Shows in Newport TJ’s over the years so it’s with much sadness that I learned today that the owner John Sicolo passed away this morning. John was one of those people that you could meet once and he’d always remember you, I was lucky enough to have 15 years of good times thanks to John and TJ’s.
There are a few tribute pages on Facebook and BBC music have requested any memories you may have for a special tribute recording.

That sucks, at least they have re-scheduled rather than just pulling the whole thing

Sons of Anarchy is the best thing on TV at the moment. Saw Paranormal Activity 2 weeks ago and thought it was a steaming pile of donkey turd, not scary at all, maybe I have just been desensitized by too many years of Takashi Miike movies :-(

Slayer in Manchester next week then off to Hamburg in early December to see Biohazard and Agnostic Front

Maximum Penaltys newest offering and the new Sick Of It All album tracks before they are released

Murphys Law in Brooklyn on Halloween, amazing gig in a tiny little place called the Trash Bar

Yeah, he was always shitfaced in TJ’s, mad bunch of lads that lot but funny as fuck

Is that Ruby Cruiser as in the band from Abergavenny? I used to knock around with Ed and Matt and the EJ’s in the mid-late 90’s, weird seeing the pics on the Facebook group as I went to most of those shows in TJ’s

Don’t want to crash the current discussion, just to pledge my allegiance :)

Liverpool fan of the true til death variety, must be as I am going tomorrow night and its my wedding anniversary! Also an occasional Newport county visitor but not so much as I don’t live there anymore.

Let the beach-ball mockery commence…

Skindred in Manchester a fortnight ago, always good fun. Can’t wait until next Saturday when I’ll be seeing Blacklisted, Bane and Maximum Penalty in NYC, just a shame I’m missing lots of T? dates just down the road from me while I’m away.

Many thanks for the warm welcome all :)

Bit of an oldie but goodie day for me today as I am packing to go to NYC next week:

Born Against - Nine patriotic hymns
Sheer Terror-Bulldog edition
Judge- Bringin it down
Kill Your Idols-This is just the beginning
Reagan Youth-A collection of…

Just re-registered after many years absence and senility preventing me from recalling either my username or password so here I am. First T? show was in Newport in ‘95 and been a disciple ever since. Its also nice that there are lots of other more senior members here as I don’t feel quite so old.

Thanks for sharing these pics, I registered on here years ago but I must be going senile as I can’t remember my login details :(
Its almost 14 years to the day since the first time I saw T? in Newport Centre and like a fine wine they just get better with age. Great show in TJ’s, just gutted I won’t be around for the Liverpool or Manchester shows. Enjoy the rest of the tour, you’re in for a treat.
