    The Wonderstuff were great, the Levellers started out well but then I lost interest

    Didn't the Levellers actually start out as a heavy metal band ?

        Nah, it's a fairly tulipty venue really. Saw Shaun Ryder and The Charlatans there a few months back.

        The Wonderstuff are the support act appararently, but I'm more looking forward to seeing them than the main act!

              Awesome. The Levellers are an AWESOME live act - lots of energy, lots of catchy tunes, and really tight on stage. I've seen them 12 times now.

              The Wonderstuff I've never seen, but my band covers Size Of a Cow - I'm sure they'll be great.

              Enjoy

                Yeah, they're playing the tunes from Levelling the Land as it's 20 years since it was released. The Wonderstuff had some great songs, lots of them never made it big though so most people only remember the Dizzy and Size of a Cow songs.

                What's this about a band? What's your typical reportoire ?

                  Saw the Wonderstuff a few years ago at the Kentish Town Forum. They were really very good. Not seen the Levellers live but it sounds like a good gig. Not at all jealous.

                    Last saw the Wonderstuff in 1992 at the Manchester Apollo. I feel soooooo old !!

                    Likewise, never seen the Levellers live. Always liked them, though never a massive fan...
