Oh yes, bought the single when it came out and it rocks! Looking forward to the album and tour. I think it was the right thing to do by dropping the lizzy name, but it does sound like a modern lizzy, I love it!

I watched him at Exeter this week, very good ricky warwick also has a drummer playing like a tea chest, the terrorvision singer and keyboard player are also good songs rearrange for acoustic guitar and piano.

You should have a great night

Well, the Southampton gig was fking ace, really liked the terrorvision guys but Ricky took it up a notch and smashed it up! The drummer is from a band called 'tax the heat' and according to what is on you tube they sound good. Great night and good to have a chat with Ricky after, a true gent.

Mine turned up last sunday morning, I've been listening to it whilst out running.
Strangely I seem to be running faster when listening to 'the killer instinct'

Another great album, is anyone seeing them play with Europe next month?

Going to the Glasgow gig on Friday, looking forward to it. The Amorettes will be interesting too. Should be a good night!

Liked the Amorettes last night, good stuff. Black Star Riders were OK but for me the sound
was terrible, was the mixing desk in a different room?. Europe??, they weren't very good at
their peak (Which was one song!) and haven't got any better.

A bit disappointed to be honest, if the Amorettes were supporting The Almighty then that would
be a gig.
