The Wildhearts

I know there's already a thread relating to Gingers birthday but thought i'd start a whole new one about trying to get THERAPY on the support slot.

Support the cause or use this thread to nominate other worthy bands!

Personally i reckon THERAPY would be perfect, similar sounding (catchy and rockin') AND criminally underrated. The last time they toured together was proabably one of the best gigs i ever seen.

Whadya reckon guys and gals?????

I dunno, I think they're a bit big to support the WH these days? Looking at the amount of listeners they have on last.fm, anyhoo.

But fuck yes, that would be the best thing ever.

I would go for that. How about Plan A also ?

Antiproduct, if Ginger and Alex can sort out their "differences"

Dunno about Therapy? being a bit big for support "these days", I thought it was that they were big back in the A&M days and have been slowly loosing listeners since, wouldnt have thought they'd have gained a huge new following since their last tour with the Wildhearts (or was that a joint headline tour, only with Wildhearts on last?)...well, Ive only gotten into them in the last couple of years but still...
Id say they'd be a good one to add to the line up though.

It would be good to see the Almighty supporting them again.

If Therapy? were to support then I would have absolutely no choice but to go.

Can't really see it happening though, which is a shame

Was definitley Wildhearts tour, T? supporting. Newcastle was a cracking nite (from what I remember). T? did their show made up of audience requests.

Backyard Babies were going to be support for that tour but pulled out.

What's the crack with that?

I'd love to see Therapy? support again. Generally, I'd love to see Therapy? do anything.

Last I heard Ginge and Alex had fallen out. Don't know if that's the case any more.

How about having Apes, Pigs & Spacemen supporting?

Anyone else remember them?

Therapy? would be great. Would be interesting to see how many copies the last Therapy? album sold in the first 2 months of release V's The Wildhearts latest. Anyone have access to that sort of information?

They were a great band. Did you get their 'free pawn' album a few years back. it's feckin great

Hot Steve would be a busy man that night if Therapy? supported. Poor fella.

That would be great. Was listening to them recently. Loved their cover of Bowie's Unwashed And Slightly Dazed.

I've only got Transfusion (in a snazzy silver digipack type version) and a couple of EP's

Are A, P & S still going then? I didn't hear much about them after Transfusion

Has anyone got a full list of the bands that have supported The Wildhearts over the years? There would be some fine acts on that list.

Doesn't seem that long ago that The Darkness were supporting them
