They went down quite well when they played Venue45 in Radcliffe.

Indeedy. I was hoping to go tomorrow night but sadly can't now. Will definitely try for one of the others.

ye of little patience. extremely good things come to those who wait. in any case, should it need explaining as you've obviously missed what i meant, the wooden spoon was for Liam in his attempt to goad another tribute band reaction, and you've made it work!!!!! lol

That hole that you're digging is starting to look really big, especially seeing that every post you've ever posted about Transmission has been 'knocking' them!

On the gigging front, you take your time lad, we're in no rush!!

i saw them at blackburn some time last year i enjoyed the lad with the long hair singing more than the main singer.anyone agree ? now that ive said that i suppose the bloke from them thats put this thread up will be the main lead singer

Did anybody go last night? I was with nil pence otherwise I would have gone.

well I'm glad you know what I meant more than I did, must be quite a talent! For the record I have absolutely no problem with Transmission at all, they have a great sound. They just don't look right.

getting closer to portsmouth.

waiting for a sign

I'll come to London that weekend.

See you there

Bloomin' hell - they're actually making their way down sarf? :)

has anyone seen these, am thinking of going on Sat

I've seen them a few times and would recommend, go for it.

Would be there myself but in Brighton watching another tribute band!

i don't normally do tribute bands but i am tempted.

What a great night last night at The Witchwood. Great crowd who really warmed to Transmission. Never seen these lot before and a bit unsure with the whole tribute thing but this was soon forgotten when they blasted into Shadowplay. A truly great set, highlights being Digital, heart and soul and a fantastic disorder. Cant wait to see these again and would defo recommend anyone to catch these live. CHEERS LADS

evens if i climb to the top of the spineker tower ,, i STILL cant see em.

as though nothing was wrong

Saw 'em Saturday night on a double bill with "The Other Smiths".

Had a great night. The keyboard sound was spot on. Well worth a watch.

Regards London date, Islington Bar Academy Sat 15th Nov

Following Transmission performance-

Feeling Gloomy are hosting a special JOY DIVISION nite and free entry into the club can be had immediately after Transmission. More info can be found here http://www.feelinggloomy.com/main.html

5 of the Norvern Order will be in attendance. Don't know where Bonz is going to put us. Bagsy not having the bath

Just to confirm that I certainly wont be.

The night's called 'Feeling Gloomy' Liam - thought you'd be a shoe-in for that one!

I would actually consider it, even though I consider Transmission to be not very good at all, but its Randy Couture v Brock Lesnar that night, and there's a few of us gathering for a all night session in a certain pub in Manchester.

anyone up for a pre-gig beer??

Andy Prieboy wrote: anyone up for a pre-gig beer??

yea if they play east lancs again

Good gig last night lads! Had a top weekend, traveliing down with the Horwich Order,Jemma and Angela.Stop over at Bonzer's (thanks honey!!) Met up with Al,the Milkys,Bert,Mr King,Gaz Edwards,Will and Simon the Smyths! and many more. Top disco after,not a lot of drinking after,too busy doing me Ian Curtis on stage. Great seeing you all again.

El Jarvo wrote: I'm gonna check the train times next time I drink with you lot.

I was convinced there was a 1.30 train back to suburubia - so was a bit shocked to find St Pancras in lockdown at 1.15.

Thank fcuk for little Em giving up her bed for me to cuddle up with Uncle Gary though!!!

That was a really good night. Thought the band were alright (though won't confess to being a big JD fan myself) but what an excellent turnout for 'em.

Yup, train times back to Hertfordshire are crap on a Saturday night - hence why I left around 12! :)

theres some pics from the nite here http://www.feelinggloomy.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=177

Cheers Andy. Oooh there's me on the 5th photo!

Ah well I didn't want to disappoint my fans..

"DISAPPOINTED....ONCE MORE!"

Why has no one mentioned how ungodly atrocious Transmission are?

They were really good Liam.

It's times like this I wish I was a moderator.

Lets ne honest about. They're fucking atrocious. No bones about it. They are what they are, which in my ears, is fucking shite.

That is my opinion. I am entitled to it. Even if it does offend a few people. But then again, its not what I say, it the way I say it which raises eyebrows.

Well I suppose you are. Although your opinion only counts on you seeing them once. I've seen them three times and they were great on Saturday. Rest of crowd seemed to think so too.

Hello Birmingham 20th December, please note venue change to Hare and Hounds, Kings Heath, High St
