I saw The Alarm at the Livingroom in Providence (and still have the pics) the night after I saw them open for U2 at the Civic Center for the War Tour. Mike Peters got me and my friends into the Livingroom...we were 16-17 yrs old. The bouncer said no and, just then, Mike Peters walked out the door and I said to him 'Hey, they won't let us in.' Mike looked at the bouncer and said 'Why not?' And he let us in. It was an epic night. I'll never forget it.
I wouldn’t call myself a super fan of The Alarm, yet I’ve seen them probably nearly 30 times over the years and have had the same Alarm poster on the wall in each house I’ve lived in since 1985…..
A drummer & someone else playing drums & both together They still Can't Play it & I've been saying it for ages that guitarist might be good player But isv100% wrong for band like this his sound is totally wrong & anyone that saw TOH 82 or before especially will know & 100% agree with me
It's not REALLY The Stranglers without Hugh, Dave or Jet. It's basically JJB and some friends playing Stranglers' covers. Just like The Skids and Big Country aren't The Skids and Big Country with so many missing members.
i bought the crossing when it came out and to this day it’s the best album i’ve ever owned. obviously it blows todays music away entirely. but it kinda did that on its release too, was so powerful track after track
I saw them live in Belfast on the 11th of March and they were excellent.I felt like a teenager again up on the floor dancing the night away.I have to say I was very impressed with Toby on the keys and how good he was.when Dave passed away I was really sad because I thought that was the end of the Stranglers.following Dave is a hard act to follow as you know he was a genius.❤
I swear when this first started I thought, "Oh, it's just a lipsynch!" it sounded so perfect. After 30 seconds, I noticed it is different from the recorded version. SOOO Good!
