They also insisted that our grandparents listen to them, however I appreciated the content and humour of the lyrics more than my Glenn Millar loving rellies.</p> <p>From HMHB, they ensured my progression to The Fall, and introduced me to the (by then quite old) soundtrack album to "The Great Rock And Roll Swindle", teaching me the words to "Friggin' In The Riggin'". Most of which I have now forgotten. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-9051 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 17:19:30 +0000 virtuallywill 9051@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I fully support you Jeni, I've been a fan for 26 years and have still not seen them live.<br /> The Indie Alan Bennet. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-9019 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 13:40:52 +0000 Gary Stanton 9019@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Any band who can pull off rhyming "Nantwich" with "amp switch" deserve global recognition. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-8679 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 16:00:31 +0000 The All New Jeni B 8679@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>No, it's safe Plucky. Just do what Quaz does, and wear a tin-foil hat.

I still think that Russians can read your thoughts through it. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-8651 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 14:26:22 +0000 wallster 8651@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Back in the 1980's I played guitar in a 5 piece popular beat combo, and we supported Dumpy's Rusty Nuts at the Leys Youth Centre in Letchworth. That gig broke the all time attendance record at the Leys (412 paying punters) and still stands to this very day; the club having closed down shortly after the event.</p> <p>We never supported Angela Rippon's Tits; although clearly, someone should have. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-8647 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 14:01:39 +0000 brownpaperreporter 8647@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>didnt know they were still going - remember seeing their gig ads in the back of the NME when I was at school. They always seem to appear next to Dumpys Rusty Nuts and a band called Angela Rippons Tits </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2976#post-8605 Wed, 21 Apr 2010 09:54:25 +0000 The All New Jeni B 8605@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>...and I think we should adopt them as the "house" band.</p> <p><a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Half-Man-Half-Biscuit/52535858893?ref=pymk&amp;v=wall" rel="nofollow">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Half-Man-Half-Biscuit/52535858893?ref=pymk&amp;v=wall</a> </p>
