UB40

UB40 play the De La Warr Pavilion Bexhill 2nd Oct 2015

Mike Curtis… Talking to a friend about the forthcoming UB40 gig at the De La Warr Pavilion, I suggested that with the passage of time they ought perhaps to be renamed UB75.

The Who – The Who?  Factory = Brownfield Site  Dr Feelgood = Dr Feelrubbish  The Rolling Stones = The Rolling Stones  Dave Clark Five = Dave Clark Two  Four Tops = One Top   Stiff Little Fingers = Flaccid Little Fingers… Just a thought………..

Peter Fairless…  Morbidly Obese Lizzy, perhaps? Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, and Eric Clapton: Crème Fraîche? Dexy’s Twilight Stroll. Eddie & The Zero Emission Hybrid MPVs

Jim Breeds… Talking Heads = Did somebody just say something? The Beach Boys = The I’ll Just Sit Up Here On The Prom And Watch Thanks Boys. CSNY = CSNO. Bruce Springsteen & The East Street Band = Bruce Wobblesteen & The East Street Nursing Home Band. The Searchers = What Did I Come Upstairs For? The Cast of Hair = The Cast.
