Faithless

[faymondo]

Will try and go to this if its not too busy.

Will probably come away going well that was not quite Faithless but I had a bit of fun anyway. 

Thinking it would be better with a new vocalist. Any attempt to recreate Maxi and it all becomes a bit karaoke for me. Can get away with that stuff for maybe one or two tracks for me but not many more.

Not. A. Chance.

Yup, if it remains on Thursday at the Glade, get there for lunchtime 👍

[randomuser]

Any further news or speculation on this?

[DJL]

If there are a fair few people not interested because of the lack of Maxi that’s absolutely fine by me, I personally disagree and it could make it very slightly less rammed.

He was fantastic but I like the stuff they have brought out without Maxi. If they use another vocalist I’m not above seeing a tribute act and if they use samples, well the Chems are probably my favourite live* act so I’d enjoy that too.

Sister Bliss headlined at my local festival - was a Dj set making good use of Faithless tracks. F*cking brilliant. Can’t wait to see her again (bar shifts allowing)

That's great to get some positive feedback

No idea sorry

[plaskins]

Maybe the name of a new single/album? The message mentions new music

It's what someone who's half Geordie, half Manc says for "really good"

I’m with you on the bar shifts. Trying not to get my hopes up for anyone in particular for this reason - if I get to see 2 out of Faithless, LCD or Justice I’ll be pretty stoked.

Pre-Glasto gig at the Roundhouse in London sold out in like 0.01 seconds.

Hardly surprising, I am expecting the Glade to be rammed!

Just a personal thing for me. I can see a band with replacement members (although original lineup is far preferable) but continuing without a lead singer just seems odd and is a step too far for me.

mind you people still go see adam lambert’s queen 😂

 

A couple of years ago, The Quireboys sacked lead singer Spike, the only original member left in the band, and continued to tour as The Quireboys. 

 

He has since regrouped with some of the original band members and tours as The Quireboys. 

 

It's very confusing.

Have you ever tried to unpick the UB40 chicanery? It's beyond baffling. 

 

Two bands touring simultaneously and both claiming to be the real deal. 

 

Ted Rogers  / 3-2-1 levels of unfathomable cryptic schizzle.

Inspiral Carpets with Stephen Holt aren't particularly good, those songs need Tom Hingley.

Does the same thing happen with earth wind and fire and the EWF “experience” with Al Mc Kay?

 

im sure theres a few more examples too!

 

obviously new order and peter hook and the light both play the odd joy division song.

 

I dont really like the fact bloc party will be doing silent alarm in full without 2 of the original 4 members 😂

[Memory Man]

As well as putting them on the friday you’d think they’d have the good sense to properly clash them with the headliners (rather than a bit later) which should fairly easily solve any real crowd issues. Will still be busy but not dangerous

2 versions of them to avoid listening to then.  Sure I can manage that. 😉

We had to stand way out on the edge as the tent was rammed then heard Michael Jackson had died.

Up there with the oddest moments of my life!

This was literally all that was talked about during that set
