Ranton to be precise! Have we exhausted all stafford musician links now? Surely there must be one more....rich upsetter said:dont forget black sabbath/ozzy - who lived out eccleshall/gnosall way in the 80s.
They used to drink in the Bankhouse, Rich.rich upsetter said:just realised; The Editors. not a huge fan but there is the ford connection. all met at the uni, played at the albion, and all lived slade style on corporation street.
and The Rakes. well one of em anyways.
I remember them. From about ten years ago? Yeah they were shite.Augustus Gloop said:The Rakes - farking hell, awful stuff. Was the bass player in some band called Oi Polloi?
No, definitely wasn't Lemmy I was thinking of.

I must have had some weird dream that Kravitz has some Stoke connection. Speaking of which, I had a dream last night that Laurel and Hardy were being interviewed for telly near the train station where I live, but later it turned out that I'd got confused and it was actually The Nextmen:

Easy mistake to make.
Anyway, sorry, don't mean to derail the thread. I shall continue to try and think of Stafford based (or at least tenuously connected) bands/artists whose music could be played at Andreas Rex's party forthwith.
Yeah, Derek Holt. Didn't he make some awful Stafford-pride style tune with Freddy Sandy? You could get them to perform it at the party. When you want everyone to go home.Augustus Gloop said:The one on the left is clearly vertically challenged. Needs some exercise.
To my knowledge Kravitz is not from Stoke. I won't be surprised if the Don Juan has a love child or two there. Got them all over the shop apparently.
That mardy fella who owns (or used to own) The Grapes who was he in? Was it the Climax Blues Band? I think his name was Holt or something. He's got a solo album for sale in HMV you could always pick it up.
Derek Holt. Yeah he was in climax blues band. You have to giggle at some of the rock cliche's in the grapes. It's like walking into the set of spinal tap sometimesAugustus Gloop said:The one on the left is clearly vertically challenged. Needs some exercise.

Blatantly if our Governator was here he would have diverted this topic to a new thread. Damn those employer fascists!jimbob23 said:Spotter's badge for Mr BBC.BBC said:Wasn't Neil Morrisey the voice of Bob the builder? He had a number one hit if i remember rightly?
I used to work with Neil Morrissey's brother. To my knowledge he never made a record, so you probably won't hear his music at the party (notice clever tie-in to thread).
so that's decided then. there are to be no records played at the party which were:jimbob23 said:Bob had 3 brothers, none of which made records which could be played at a house party, to the best of my knowledge.
