:) One of my favourite bands, if not the one I know most about, the one I've obsessed most about...

Here's a nice photo show that fits this thread:

Ta for the link :)

I think the band I know the most about is Oasis, but the Manics were a special interest for 10 years, and Oasis I'd gone off of after a much shorter period of time.

That's a tough question. I immediately thought of Rob Collins. But... Syd Barrett and Rick Wright would be at the top of my list, too, I think.

And Brian Jones.

I can't speak for the Manics, but Oasis... It's been almost 10 years by now. But I'd say they were a special interest for me between 2002 and 2009.

I don't know much about the Manic Street Preachers, but Richie Edwards really seemed like a lost soul.


I forgot Jeff Buckley. And Nick Drake.

(clicky)how common is that surname?
but more to the point, Allan Sherman was born Allan Copelon. i could not find out why he changed his surname. most of his history seems to have vanished in the mists of time, only his works survive him. what a clever [but tormented] man, a genius.
