HI ALL JUST WONDERING IF THERE ARE ANY FANS OF THE STRANGLERS ABOUT AS THEY ARE DOING A UK TOUR FROM TONIGHT. THEY ARE WITHOUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED BAND OF THE PUN/NEW WAVE ERA. I THINK IT IS A SHAME THAT FENDER NEVER DID A SIGNATURE TELECASTER FOR HUGH CORNWELL AND A PRECISION BASS FOR JJ BURNEL THEY ARE WITHOUT A DOUBT A REASON FOR A LOT OF TELE AND PBASS SALES DURING AND AFTER THE PUNK NEW WAVE PERIOD.

Real fun band. I agree they never got the recognition they deserved.
I know you'll enjoy the show.

TO RIGHT IT JUST BUGS ME THAT JOE STRUMMER AND ELVIS COSTELLO GET SIGNATURE GUITARS AND NOT HUGH CORNWELL OR JJ BURNEL I MEAN CORNWELL WAS AND IS A FAR BETTER GUITARIST THAN THE PAIR OF THEM AND JJ BURNEL WAS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST BASSIST OF HIS TIME FAR BETTER THAN SIMONEN/JAMES/MATLOCK ETC.
