      Couldn't agree more, unfortunately his most technical guitar skills are only showcased in the earlier stuff before Richie disappeared. You listen to a lot of the stuff since then and the riffs and playing have simplified.

      The problem is they haven't released a decent album since 1998. So they have fallen further down the pecking order. Mind you it doesn't really matter who plays what and where at this monstrosity of an event. Its is populated by middle class media studies students and, worse still, their parents so they can "ironically" sing along to Parton, or which ever dinosaur is dragged out. It is painful to watch car crash television. It is like a modern day, wannabe trendier Butlins. Cabaret with something for all the family. The Manics stopped being relevant years ago, and Wire needs to ditch the glam - he now just looks like a 50 year old bank manager who likes to dress up in women's clothes on the weekend. Embarrassing but somehow befitting of this woeful weekend.

What a kind thoughtful bloke James is....Richey is still alive l reckon.....living in a bookshop in Amsterdam.....he mentions this cause he wanted to do an lan Curtis....one of his heroes.Curtis would have moved to Amsterdam to escape being famous.

    I read “Withdrawn Traces by Sara Hawys Roberts, Leon Noakes and most importantly Richards sister Rachel Edwards. & somehow it made me feel closer to Richey. Which is crazy cause it’s not even in his words, expect the words they quoted from him. I kinda believe he’s disappearance has a deeper meaning, a message with it. As his disappearance really made a talk about him, even for none fans. He got his name and fame when he isn’t there to entertain anymore.
    I hope that wherever Richey are, he’s happy with his decision and live his life as he want to live it, and not under the pressure of society, nor anymore.
    ~ I wish him all peace and comfort ~ miss you Richey. ..

I was at Glastonbury this year and the past few years, I didn't watch the Manics, Dolly, Kasabian principally because I didn't want to, but I believe I am grown up and therefore don't feel the need to put into print spiteful and derogatory comments. But then again I am not tiny minded. Good video though of a favourite manic song

    Richey looked a lot like my son who died in 2016....
    Would be great to hear you somewhere in Germany....
