Do yourself a favor, checkout 'At the Drive-in' live back in their heyday then come back.

I'll wait.

Whose heyday? Just post the video here because I don't think any of us know who you are talking about.

The guitarist we all love in the UK is Wilko Johnson formerly of Dr. Feelgood.

I saw a whole lot of electric guitar poseurs but Wilko was fascinating see:



The lead singer died Lee Brilleaux sadly died of cancer aged 41.

Wilko Johnson (actually John Wilkinson), that manic guitarist, lost his wife to cancer in 2004.
He had to cancel a gig in 2012 and shortly after was diagnosed with effectively, terminal cancer. He refused treatment and prepared to die.

He didn't and was later diagnosed with another form of cancer which was treated with radical surgery.

He is now 71 and playing like crazy:



Even if you don't like his music, we all love him.

If he looks familiar, he played the executioner in Game Of Thrones!

Mick Jagger...on meth?

Idk. Strictly my opinion....but, There is music. And then there is noise. There’s singing, and there’s screaming. There’s playing, and there’s banging away.

While music can draw me into the song and inspire me to “move” to it, noise moves me away and causes me to look for the door, move on to another track, or simply turn it off.

That def inspired me to the latter. Not to mention I loathe leaving strings coiled up at the headstock. I know, I know...irrelevant but...yeah.

The upside is I didn’t have to pay to see that lol! So that’s a plus.

Now THIS...I’d pay to see

Wilko is a gem. As is his bass player, the most excellent Norman Watt-Roy.
