Gary Numan

Announced a short UK tour where he'll be playing the Telekon album in it's entirity and all the a and b sides from that period.

Really getting into him recently. Pleasure Principle is a great album and got the new album, Jagged, today.

One really does wonder if you work for the promoter.

Anyway, how come a little scenester like you isnt out seeing Shit Patrol tonight? I'm surprised you didnt go just so you could give us all a review.

This coming from someone who does their best to promote Mozza all the time.

One wonders if he is letting Mozza bum him...

Owen, you post complete bollocks.

If I ever meet you I'll probably hit you.

Do I win £40?

Yes. Yes you do.

Nice email you sent me Christopher.

Thanks for not replying.

And Col, so what?

This must be a record.

A thread where no fucker has bothered sticking on topic.

I didn't play Dance for years and years but what with the recent interest in retro analogue sounding music, I think Dance doesn't sound quite as dated as before... She's Got Claws is a great track.

Not a classic and perhaps with hindsight not worthy to rank amongst Pleasure Principle et al

I always though he was retarded

How weird, I always thought YOU were retarded

being off topic is my specialty on message boards.

Glad he's back on his old stuff! Saw him last on his PURE tour,his grunge sound has won him some new younger fans,but prefer him doing his old sound. John Foxx got the good sense to go back to what he does best.

LIVING ORNAMENTS '79/'80

Don't know much about Gary Numan, though i'll probably check him out at Electric Picnic. Speaking of good gigs recently, has anyone seen Radiohead live recently. They were fookin brilliant on Thursday night and Beck's puppet show was tremendous.

Not retarded, no. Bot he does have something which makes him seem standoffish - cant remember what its called.

Anyway, I had Pleasure Principle & Dance - both good albums.

Had one later album also - name escapes me - it was OK, not great. Never liked his image(s) but always liked some of his songs.

If he's on at the Electric Picnic same day as NO I'll go to that one too.

How weird, I always thought YOU were retarded

Thanks a bunch :(

Asperger's Syndrome. He has a mild case of it I think.

Excellent! I don't remember posting that at all! I can't even remember what I did that night - got very drunk, obviously.

I'm sure it seemed very funny to me at the time.

Sorry, Chris!

He does. He said he couldn't figure out why people thought he was so stand offish for years.

And you're off the hook, Colin.
