HOW THE HELL DID I MISS THEM!!??

I've just downloaded their albums (legally, of course!). Well, I had 'A Grand Don't Come For Free' for a while, but only just got the others.

Really impressed. And I'm normally a metal fan! Mike Skinner is a lyrical genuis!

:D

    I think you are wrong! Actually, know you are :lol:

    I'm actually addicted to them at the moment. Good beat, clever and witty lyrics. Good times 8)

    They can be great. They can be terrible too. But I saw them at T in the Park and they were damn fine... Amazing response from the crowd as well. Very impressive... But they never played Empty Cans :cry:

    I've seen them a couple of times before and tbh Mike used to be rotten live, just sub-Albarn crowd-pleasing cliche rubbish. But he's got good, I'll give him that. Just in time to split up (he says they'll be splitting next year)

    I'm a bit of a Streets fan. Seen them last year over at Newcastle- AMAZING live.

    And when I was in Ibiza a few years back I lost my pals in Manumission- walked into one of the amny many rooms and theres was Mike Skinner on stage covering Gorillas- Clint Eastwood 8) 8)

    The Streets are headlining Kendal Calling tomorrow, can't wait for Blinded by the Lights 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
