Re: A metric band
Saw the original lineup at the Hammersmith Odeon in the mid 70's on the Original Soundtrack tour. Fantastic show.
I think only Graham Gouldman is left in the touring band - saw them at Silverstone a couple of years ago.

I saw them in the 70's as well. Rainbow Finsbury Park I think.
Gouldman in the only original original although the drummer and lead guitar joined when the Godley and Creme left.

At the Odeon, they opened with ‘One Night in Paris’ - a 3 part opus compared at the time to ‘Bohemian Rhapsody.
As I said, a three part piece and there was just one prat in the audience who started applauding and cheering at the end of part one - me.

i could do with a Gastric band. Did not know what a metric band was. Sounded like a measurement

If they had been called 10 cubic inches they would have been an imperial band.

The reason they chose their name is not for repeating here.

Young at heart. Slightly older in other parts.

I know the reason Steve. If we both say we’ll both get banned.
