i loved the manic street preachers

[southeastastra]

when they had that bloke that went off

crikey that would scar me for life! lol!

LOL, he was/is a sweetie, hasn't aged as well as Nicky though

Lindz... just cos you're a sucker for ol' blue eyes!

I don't know that Nick is aging that well these days bless he's got a bit of middle age spread but I still adore him

Nicky is lovely - JDB is a bit on the short side isn't he?

oh I love them and all ... Everything Must Go is constantly on my ipod.
I love the JDB solo album too.
Bless him

and of course Nick's solo album was a thing of wonder!

Still haven't got Nicky's solo album but I do love Break your Heart Slowly. It seems to suit his voice.

Oooh memories...when my then BF introduced me to JDB and I just goggled and smiled like a loon. Rather than immediately sparking up convo about kierkegaard or something.

Or when I asked richey a factual question and he said 'no' and i prentended i hadnlt heard and said 'Sorry?' to extend the conversation. Amazingly, this did not cause him to fall in love with me. How shocked was I?

God, I loved them.

DB, he was a bit shorter than me, so I guess yes he is short ohhh this convo is taking me right back now!

Still would though just so I could say i had!!LOL!

DD had a fab time at the Manics gig in Newport and she went GOOOOEY over JDB!

I've seen the Manics 32 times (I think), and... oh dear, this is sad... If the sprog turns out to be a boy we're calling him Nicholas, after a certain Mr Wire... To be fair, me and DH met due to being Manics fans, so it seems appropriate!
