kath Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 This got me to thinking about Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band. I'm not sure how it started with them, but Bruce, as far as I know was a solo singer and they were his backing band. But for years, they were together, played all over the world and people identify with them as being a whole band, but it's not the case, as if you look at the records it's only Bruces name on the cover. And they had a great rapport, much like Mika has with this band.In fact, I think some of them still play with him, I know Little Stevie does. So maybe, Mika wants to make his own "E Street Band":naughty: Mika Penniman and The................ band Any suggestions? Elastic band...............then people could keep springing back:roftl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruth Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I do get the feeling as well that next time around things will be very different. Why does that make me sad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sariflor Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Why does that make me sad? I know what you mean, and I do find it a bit sad in a way, but I just feel that it's too late. The magic for me was lost when they got rid of Luke in such a bad way . So, after that, anything goes IMO and I don't really care about the band situation anymore, nor will I focus on them moving forward:wink2:.

sariflor Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Ah! That makes me sad too. Don't be , that's just me. I'm sure that plenty of others are very happy to carry on 'following' the band, and the new members that came/will come in . I just don't 'feel' it anymore, and I can't fake it, so for me it's all a new era, turn of the page, etc... . That's all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kath Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I saw Martin last night with lily Allen in Glasgow. We were right at the back of the balcony (hubby's choice) and because of the way that the lights were (and the fact that there was no spotlight on Martin) it was very difficult to see him. However, his body movements were very familiar so there was no doubting that it was him! It was a good gig...she was very good live:thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen her live before but I was very impressed. She basicaly did all the new album, plus a couple of the oldies plus three covers...OMG (Kaiser Cheifs) Womaniser (Britney) and I think she did another one but the Oldling brain can't remember:shocked:. It was the first night of the tour and she kept apologising , saying that it wasn't very sleek, but it seemed ok to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Luke was okay, but thought it wasn't handled that well... Thanks for the report. I'm going to see her in a month.

guylainem123 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 by the way... any of you read this? http://perezhilton.com/2009-03-17-lily-allen-is-a-twatter Just who exactly does Lily Allen think she is? While playing some gigs in Lily's neck of the woods, DJ Felix Da Housecat was personally assaulted by the Tiny Trollop. According to TheeRealFDH's Twitter, Lily was so "F**K*D UP" that she invited herself into Felix's hotel room, causing the DJ "2 CALL SECURITY." Then "LILy jus told me F**K FELIX DA HOUSECAT," prompting Felix to conclude "YES!…i dont think she knew who was..I mean maybe 4 a min…Her Guitar player escorted her…she scared the daylights outta me." Nice one, Lily. Classy, as always! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, I guess Martin knows better what's best for him/his career.. Off topic though, I can't believe how popular this twitter thing is, omg, everyone has it.
