Thin Lizzy

[Kinky]

I've just booked my tickets to see Thin Lizzy at the Hammy Odeon

Any PHers coming?

[Liszt]

Umm, I hate to break it to you, but, you do know that Phil Lynot has, um, shall we say, left the band?

Yeah .... I'd heard on the rumourmill .....

I saw them a few years ago with John Sykes playing with them, it was good but I felt something was missing. Some bands can get away with certin members leaving/dying, I just don't think Lizzy is one of them.

Having said that they were good and it was great to see Scott playing live, what a player. I wonder why Robbo doesn't get in on the act? Brian Downey on drums will be cool though.

Sir Ricky Warwick on vocals as well.

Sykes' solo on "Still in love with you" from Life - Live =

Oh, and Gary on Black Rose.

And Emerald, and Whisky, and The Boys are.........

off to add more to my 'tube "favourites" account now.

Where do you stop

Indeed.

Actually, I do think "Life - Live" is the line in the sand for TL. Distilled essence of Lizzy on four sides of vinyl.

I saw limehouse lizzy a while back and they were pretty good. so good in fact that Phil Linott's mum was there.

They are fantastic, I can't think of their frontmans name to hand right now but he is indeed amazing. Bloody big too ! I briefly met John Sykes due to The Almighty connection as he came to see Pete Friesen who I'm friends with. Nice guy

Your friends with Pete Friesen??!!

That man is a legend, i loved The Almighty (still do).
Ricky Warwick and Pete Friesen were my idols back in the day and they were great in that band.
I spoke to the band and Pete when the Almighty toured a couple of years ago, great chaps.

The Almighty were a pretty cool band. Saw them many many times

[dealmaker]

What a truly great band! It is indeed a great shame that it's only really now that I am beginning to really appreciate them - albeit I do remember watching them performing live on the BBC as a 13 year old and thinking - "WOW that guitarist is a bit good!"

I would love to see Scott Gorham live - and I'd love to see them perform my favourite track - Rosalie!

I am indeed. If you're around Guildford or nearby, he does the odd gig in his cover band "King Biscuit" who are the st. One of the nicest guys I've had the pleasure of knowing.

I'm going to see them when they come up to Aberdeen.

Just last year Ricky Warwick was playing gigs in various wee bars in and around Belfast.

he's always touring, just finished another tour this year as well.
Back to LA for a while and back out again, fair play to the fella.
