Indeed...Carl Putman, possibly THE most underrated vocalist of the early nineties.
I used to go see Cud quite a bit, usually when they were supporting bans like Wedding Present and The Family Cat...but they quickly became a preffered band.
Shame they never really made it. They wer always seen as a bit of joke band, weren't they? Probably has something to do with the way Putman used to camp it up. Once I went to see them and they had this little sequinned entrance just for him, and he came out about three times with different loud outfits on.
Wumus, when I went skiing in Val D'Isere earlier Chesney did a gig in Dicks T Bar. Apparently he does a gig there every year, and it's always REALLY popular, and (amazingly) with younger people.
LOL thats what they tell us every year yup. This is based on the fact that.... um.....well... its not like it used to be is it? Not in the old days. No. With the beatings and all that. The good old days. Bring back the cane! And the O-level. That'll teach you young hoodies...
"...proper exams....beatings at school...institutionalised violence...they GIVE degrees away these days....young hooligans...drug addicts....national service UUMPH!"
*nurse stuffs soggy rich tea biscuit in mouth to shut up*
Lol! It'll go back to normal afterwards. (Won't it?) Everything ready for the birth then? Hot towels on standby? (I know absolutley nothing about birth, so I'm just guessing that's what yu'd need. That and I've watched telly, and thet always seem to ask for them)

These docuramas have me scared Ipshitless....
... and I would have got away with it too, if it hadn't been for those pesky meddling kids...
Sorry, had to be done.
Schmindie, Punka, which albumn misquotes this famous line as
"... and I would have got away with it too, if it hadn't been for those b*stard b*stard meddling kids.."
Cud, When in Rome Kill Me.
"That was Bibi....she was myopic"
Greta, great band.

Great album and simply the best band live.

Sorry Patrick, I just would have thought Cud was too cheerful for you. I remember you're a Joy Division fan...
Was that a UEA gig Patrick? I remember Carl changing quite often at one of those. i think it was the Asquarius tour..
Cud played Glastonbury last year... pop fact for the day!
Depressingly for us wumuf, you'd have been at Primary School at this point...
*bigs up those born in the mid 80s*
chesney hawkes anyone?
Can't remember... I saw them about four times in all, and think saw them at Camden Underworld on that tour.
I DO like early 80's miserabilist post-punk stuff, but ALSO love a lot of later non-miserablist indie and dance stuff
Its all about the born in the 70s this week you young wipper snapper!
I never got the miserablist vibe really, but I can see why people think its good.
I was always more of a jangly pop fan.
wumuf, I sat my O-levels in the mid eighties :-(
