The Ginger & The Scorchers Review Thread

[Ean]

So, did anyone record the gig last night? I know that there's someone who records lots of the gigs and sells the cd's - I think I found the website off here, something done with Ginger's approval IIRC.

Well Dingwall was there (It was he and Zo who RJP congratulated from the stage) if that's who you mean? but he wasn't recording AFAIK. (I don't know that he does do the recording, or whether he just collects and distributes them?)

As supplied by a hardcore scorchers fiend; have a great Manchester, and see y'all in Leeds!

ginger was great, warner proved once again just how bad-ass he is, kenny and fenner laid an unbelievable groove down. not much else to say other than 'pure, dead, brilliant'.

[Ean]

Ta very much.

Oh, and welcome to the messageboard - No running, shouting, or piddling in the shallow end.

Who is the new GDW?

Chris Catalyst on bass.

[Col]

aaah, so no Ginger then?

[Ean]

Nope, so hopefully Random'll do something with them rather than just playing support slots at Ginger gigs, 'cos it seems a waste otherwise.

[JuniorDog]

Ta, Ean Ü!

I was on the mailing list for years, but it killed my mailbox after I went on hols, so I had to drop off; good to find the forum!

Saw the Scorchers in Spain on 8th September; they were phenomenal. Saw Ginger with the Scorchers at the Mean Fiddler in about 1998, that was pretty amazing too; looking forward to Leeds tomorrow...

Yep, was recorded. We went the manc gig last night too so we've yet to listen back to the quality of either of them.

If they're listenable we'll let you guys know

Were you recording where you stood? 'cos you were pretty close to the stack.

[Zo]

yeah. I know.

trouble is I can never see if I stand towars the back!!

Ding usually manages to twiddle with them somehow and sort them out. He's genius. But dont tell him I said that he'll get big headed

If they are, I'd love a copy! We weren't too far from you, as it happens, just off to the side, but only for the GDW set before we had to go. I don't get ahuge amount of time at work to browse forums, so if you could send me an email through here to let me know when and how much etc I'd really appreciate it.
