I saw them in Hammersmith 85 or 86. Certainly after RS&TL came out, but before FTONY

They were spectacularly good around 85-87. They always played three dates at the Barrowlands just before Xmas which were mental.

Did you go to the St Patricks day gig in 86 at the Hammersmith Palais Kev ? A load of us headed up from Brighton were we were working at the time.
I ended up talking drunken pish to Elvis Costello on the balcony - he must have thought I was a total roaster.

Thinking about I am pretty sure it was the Hammersmith Odeon, I saw a lot of gigs there.
I ‘played’ the Hammersmith Palais myself in the 70s but that is a very different story
You’re right - by the time we got to the gig I had sobered up and was about to get drunk again

Me and the boss quite enjoyed it. We’ve now got all the books too 
Watched Catch Me If You Can again yesterday. What a rather wonderful and underrated film that is.

Don’t bother. A concept with great potential, but wasted. Basically just a gore-fest.

Me too. It’s a favourite here. Great story, my daughter loves that he ended up becoming very successful.

Excellent. I have no idea about the historical accuracy, and frankly don’t give a toss 
We watched Withnail & I again for the first time in maybe 25 years. Another corker. Some tremendous dialogue.
Amazing effort by Richard E Grant considering it was his first film role.

After the Abattoir Alehouse last night, which was very good, I was swiftly brought down to earth by watching this POS

Protip: Watch Ad Astra first. Everything else will seem like a work of genius afterwards.

One of Mr Cruise’s better films too believe it or not. (Tropic Thunder being the best)
