    Not my cup of tea, Steve, but it sounds like there must be at least a few bands worth seeing! I was hoping to see Morrissey tonight, but I've been plagued with the flu, so I really wouldn't have enjoyed it as I otherwise would have

    He was on the Jonathan Ross show again, I hope that was some consolation.




    My point in this thread, regardless of if I'm paying £25 or £47, is I am going to see a legendary 60s Rock 'n' Roll band, who influenced many bands both in their day & ever since. For instance, both the Rolling Stones & the Kinks picked up tips from the Sonics.

    I am just wondering if "legendary" is an accurate way to describe a band that had no hits.

    Until your post, I hadn't even heard of them!

    In the UK.

    Ok, I'll rephrase:

    I am just wondering if "legendary" is an accurate way to describe a band that had no hits in the UK.

    Some bands never really had massive chart success, but their legendary cult status is unsurpassed.
