Never owned a single record of theirs but saw them years back at Leicester uni with girlfriend at the time, and was blown away (by the gig, before you ask).

They played near 3 hours and put on an incredible gig, made you feel part of a communal cathartic experience, and the lead singer told some fantastic tales over and between the music. The only gig I’ve ever seen that I’d compare to Springsteen. Honestly one of the best concert experiences I’ve ever been a part of. No idea if they are still as good, probably not, but back then when they were hungry for success they were so so good live.

Still as good and still throw out the stories during the concerts.

Ocean Colour Scene were always huge in Scotland. I like Belle & Sebastian lots but Jocks seem to have really bad taste in music.

You seem to be a hypocrite, moaning about Hughes getting anti welsh jibes and abuse yet call us Scots “Jocks” which is a stereotypical jibe at us. Make your mind up, Jocks doesn’t particularly offend me as it’s more comical but it can’t be on rule for one and one rule for another. Plus Hughes was a rag so you cannot expect him not to get stuck.

Spot on, some sweaties do get offended at being called Jocks.
