Are they considered punk? Because I like some of their songs like Golden Brown and Always the Sun. Sounds like a good gigMontegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:27 pmMy first ever gig was The Stranglers in 1979.
There should be a thread for this.
First single, first LP and first live gig.

I used to listen to the Offspring in middle school. They are a 90's punk bad. You might be too young to remember them. Americana, especially Smash were great albums at the time.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Sat Oct 20, 2018 12:43 pmDamn, don't they teach you young kids anything at school these days?

What is your favorite film catering experience? In terms of artistic achievement, what is the best film you have catered for?

Re: Film and TV catering
The one I liked best was a documentary called Hiroshima.
We spent a couple of weeks at the Duxford Imperial war museum. They were shooting the Enola Gay cockpit scenes in the B17 they have in the USAAF hangar which was closed to the public. Everyday I got to walk under an SR-71 Blackbird and could wander around the planes when I had time. They give rides in two seater Spitfires there so we got to watch them take off and land several times a day.
They also used HMS Belfast as a US navy ship and Lincoln castle as a jail. We ended up in Norfolk at a WWII vehicle collection to film the last few bits.
Was a good documentary when I got around to watching it.
It's a good day at work when you get to walk under one of these to get to a B17.
The guy I'm working with has been doing it for nearly 40 years. He's worked on some great ones.
Full metal jacket
Out of India
Gorillas in the mist
Got great stories about Kubrick or Anthony Hopkins or a thousand others.
He was telling me yesterday about a drunken Helen Mirrim trying to pull him at a wrap party.
I'm encouraging him to write a book. Am getting him together with a writer I know to see if she'll ghost write it for him.
