    Looks like I am going. I have always really dug their music, but I don't know that much about them or what to excpect from them live (especially in 2003). Has anyone seen them before, or heard anything about this tour? Anyone else going?

    ive never seen them before, but im planning to catch them in Austin at Emo's. its a saturday show i think. should be pretty cool. like you though, i have no idea what to expect. how old are the guys in the band now anyways?????


    EDIT: didnt the drummer from The Smiths drum for the Buzzcocks for a short while? i think i heard that somewhere.

    I had a record in 77, never thought much since. Made almost zero impression - unlike, say, pistols or ramones. Are they 100 yrs old?

    Ever fallen in love with someone you shouldn't have fallen in love with?

    I do believe I would be there if I didn't have a gig of my own. The Buzzcocks were pretty cool back in the day.

    The Ramones were great. The Sex Pistols were OVERRATED.

    You do realize, pasox, that Johnny Rotten and the boys really only did one true album?

    Of the all-time great punk bands, I would have to list the Buzzcocks #3 behind The Clash and the Ramones.

    The best Buzzcocks album is "Singles Going Steady" which has the majority of their most famous and best songs. You will probably recognize half of those songs.
