    It’s apparently wrong to speak ill of the dead so I’ll refrain from pointing out what an amoral prick he was and how he duped the various parties of the alliance into joining purely for their funding capacity and threatened to resign when they made a fuss about how they were treated by him.

    The fuck he was.

    I wonder if Pam Corkery will be able to contain herself now? She went into parliament saying she’d take a bullet for him and when she left she loathed him.

    Is Pam Corkery still alive?

    I see Fast Eddie Clarke off of the Motorheads has died. That’s the full set unfortunately. I’ll bet he still has to chase Lemmy to get a round in.

    2018 has been pretty kind so far. No one I remotely care about has gone as yet.

    I never vote radical left but you are wrong there although it fits with your historic posting, so not surprising.

    I played rugby as a kid for Sydenham, Jim would give the end of year speech. He could hold a room, great sense of humour.

    Another Sydenham man on the forum! There’s a few of us on here.

    Have also seen him speak, he was very impressive.

    It begins..

    Still remember catching the cranberries at the super top over 20 years ago. Only knew the song Zombie which I’m pretty sure was why 75% of those attending came to hear as well. Trouble is the bastards didn’t play it till last!

    Unbelievable. I had their first two albums but enjoyed the first. Linger was probably my favourite. Saw them under the Mt Smart Supertop back in the day

    Probably happens with a lot of artists, a mate went to Steve Earle and some tard near him up the front kept calling out “ play copperhead road “ until he snapped , stopped playing and gave a piece of his mind.
    I love that Radiohead’s singer loathes Creep and all but refuses to sing it as it’s the only song of theirs I like and I think they are hugely overrated.

    Back to the Cranberries, their music still sounds great to me. I’m not sure what she’s been doing lately musically but she had a hell of a voice and 46 is far too young .

    @jegga Crowded House hated Something so Strong and barely played it. IMHO these so called hated songs made these guys millions of dollars from fans who love them and they should just suck it up and play the farking songs

    Yep , there’ll come a time when no one gives a fuck about them and they’ll be happy to have an audience . They won’t be so picky then I bet.

    I noticed Crowded House were perfectly happy to play it during the reunion concert at the Sydney Opera house last year. Sanctimony left when the money and fame dried up perhaps
