Clarky Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 (edited) Such a big back catalogue and a fantastic light/video show ... and Mani* is the man! Really great evening - seriously, catch them if you can on this tour Highlights: Rocks Off, Swastika Eyes, Exterminator * nerdy bass comments: played his Rick 3000 shortscale and an Epi gold Jack Casady Edited November 28, 2008 by Clarky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I missed them this time in Bristol. Seen them a fair few times over the years though, Mani is definitely their (not so) secret weapon. I really like their new album particularly 'Uptown', did they play much of it? Also, was wondering did you catch the support act at all, 'Cristine' - Douglas Hart's (J & Marychain's original bassist) new band - any good?

thebeat Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I've never really been able to get into Primal Scream, but i do like Swastika Eyes and would imagine it would sound great done live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu-khag Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I love the bassline and sound in Kill all hippies. Dirty and full of groove! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmanlamius Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Yeah, I saw them along with Supergrass and Neil young in the summer. I was pleasantly suprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbass Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Managed to blag a VIP ticket to see them in Belfast a couple of weeks ago. I wasn't a huge fan before seeing them, but what a FANTASTIC live band! Managed to get a pint with Bobby G and Mani afterwards too in the backstage area, top guys!

Clarky Posted November 29, 2008 Author Share Posted November 29, 2008 They are MUCH better live than on record - and Mani is a funny guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
