The main riff from Motorcycle Emptiness was played on Richey's Telecaster.

Dunno whether this has been posted on here before but here's almost all of the Manics at Glastonbury 94

My new bass teacher has played with Nicky and describes him as being "like seven foot" and a "huge tranny"!

The photos of them as kids in The Holy Bible booklet... Even at that age Richey looks overwhelmed with existential angst

What was the name of that psychopath who claims she can contact with the spirit of Richey? I totally forgot it

Inspired by talk in the Futurology thread of the Manics (only) playing songs at festivals that have the title in them, I decided to discover how many of the band's 157 album tracks have the title explicitly mentioned in them (lyrics like "so I convalesce" don't count as the title is The Convalescent).

119 tracks have the title mentioned in them.
Which leaves 38 that don't. Make of that what you will.

I'm watching Couples Come Dine With Me on More 4 and I think one of the contestants looks a bit like Sean Moore.

This is just me being grumpy about stuff, but Lifeblood's spotlight was prematurely stolen by the 10th anniversary of The Holy Bible, and now ten years later it seems like the spotlight of the band's best album since Lifeblood is going to be prematurely stolen by the 20th anniversary of The Holy Bible. Harumph.

Seeing the Bible artwork plastered everywhere has made me wonder if Jenny Saville has ever seen them live.

I passionately hate feather boas at gigs. I always seem to get trapped behind the bastard things and they shed everywhere. They make my eyes and face itch so badly. Even if I move away the itch doesn't stop once the nasty things have touched me!
