[jamestheraver]

They are a bunch of mentalist's, but i love them.

I cant actually believe how many hits they have had going on those clips. Sing along paradise haha

All that "faux-mentalist" stuff is bollocks. They're not mad and they're not funny.

However, I'm a big fan. Check out "One better Day", "The Sun & The Rain" and "Yesterday's Men" if you want to hear some lovely music. I'm not sure if they'll play it at Glasto though.

Oh it's going to be fantastic. EVERYONE likes Madness, everyone knows the words... I'm going with a group of about 12 and as far as I know we're all going to see them. Can you imagine the whole of the Pyramid Field just going absolutely crazy?! It will be brilliant!

[gooner1990]

I'm so so excited about this I love Ska, however I was born 20 years to late to be about during the heyday time of the specials, madness, bad manners the beat etc.

[staggerlee]

Yeah I love them. New album is good too. The Specials and Madness! It will be absolutely brilliant!

[krazyangel]

i shall def being doing some ska dancing,,my dream to see madness and the specials

taking me back to my youth lol

[Billy09]

This is going to be awsome. Think I last saw Madness around '93, and they were fantastic. Saw The Specials a couple of weeks ago in Brixton, and it was seriously good. One of the best crowds I have ever been in, despite being about 10 years younger than the audience average (I'm mid 30s!!). Can't wait. Ska revival!! Also think I'll be checking out Dubpistols, they look pretty cool.

[Alf Tupper]

Oh yes Suggs and Co, cannot wait, one step beyond

[swell]

cant wait, am seeing them in July also at Victoria park , it is gonna be BIG!!! was an earlier thread about modding up for them and someone mentioned a toy Saxophone bubble machine, i need one of these! help please people

Im so excited for Madness playing, seen them live about 10 times and going to see them at Madstock their own festival on July 17th. If you havn't heard the new album its getting excellent reviews and is said to be one of their best yet and I would recommend you checking it out. www.madness.co.uk for more information or the excellent madness fan site http://www.madness-central.com/
