any Thunder fans here?
They have a new album out called Shooting at the Sun which ROCKS, it's in the shops tomorrow.
I can't wait for their tour in May... Sun 18th May - Glasgow Academy Mon 19th May - Manchester Academy Tue 20th May - Nottingham Rock City Thu 22nd May - Wolverhampton Civic Hall Fri 23rd May - London Astoria Sat 24th May - Cambridge Corn Exchange I'll be going to my 4th and 5th shows. Is anyone else going to the London Astoria or Cambridge Corn Exchange? check out their website http://www.thunderonline.com |
I'll be at the Astoria show :D About time the lads got out again!
|
Cool! A lot of fans are talking about where they'll meet pre-show, there are some good rock pubs round by the Astoria apparantly, so we'll probably head to them, how about you?
|
I'm hoping to be meeting up with a few ppl before the gig, details aren't finalised yet though, I'm sure by the time I've been to Manchester and Wolves, I'll know! :D
Everyone's organising on the message board - I'll just keep an eye out. PM me if you want to arrange something :) |
Cool Mad4Jovi, I will definitely be in touch, me & a friend are going, maybe with one or two others if I can convince them how good the gig is gonna be 8) :D
|
No-one else?...
The guys need all the support they can get at the moment, the success of this tour has a lot riding on it regards their future. Full details about this are on their website. Like many other decent rock bands, they get really poor radio play, (despite the fact that they had some big hits, have a great new single 'Loser' & they haven't sold out musically and still have class.) Their live shows are great fun and reminiscent of a Jovi gig (although nothing and no-one matches that - even with a stagnant setlist haha!) Danny has an amazing voice, Luke is something of a guitar god!!! I defy anyone who likes good music to go to a gig and come away unimpressed or not feeling good about life lol :Fade-col: :multi: |
I AM A HUGE FAN OF THIS BAND...I REMEMBER BUYING BACKSTREET SYMPHONY BACK WHEN IT CAME OUT...GREAT DISC. MY FAVORITE SONG IS LOVE WALKED IN. I ALSO HAVE LAUGHING ON JUDGEMENT DAY. GOOD ALBUM. I DIDN'T REALIZE THEY HAD THIS MUCH MATERIAL AVAILABLE....NICE TO SEE...

Bah
come to Sheffield dammit Thunder |
go to Manchester dammit Goose :P
|
Ok, I have to say one word WOW!
I caught Thunder live again this past week (I was lucky - the tour ended up sold out ) and although they've been away for nearly 3 years - God, this band can perform! :D The music is great, but the live performance blew me away, I'd forgotten how good they were :shock: I can't believe there aren't more Thunder fans on this board - I mean these guys seriously know how to play and they are also the best band I've ever known of for listening to and looking after their fans. I mean, how many bands do you know that actually listen and action their fan's opinions regarding setlists? Or bands that do a fan meet and greet after every show - even festivals? Its just a shame they don't get the recognition and respect they deserve - even though the new single "Loser" got to number 3 in the Rock Chart with absolutely no radio support! They are touring again in November and I recommend any self respecting rock fan gets their backside to their nearest show to find out for themselves what a cracking band this is! The gig at the Astoria has already gone on sale - www.ticketweb.co.uk - for £18.50 you can't get a better night out. Go on....... try it! |
I gave them a miss... it fell in a week where I had 3 other BIG concerts, so I wasn't in a go and see every rock band kind of mood....
Are they doing Manchester again? If so, does anybody have any MP3's or suggests of things they've done that's good? The only thing I heard put me off the show, hense the reason I wasn't bothere dabout missing./ |
I've got a bootleg of last week's show at the Astoria heading my way if you'd like to try a copy? Would be more than happy to share, believe me you missed a cracking night in Manchester - I'm sure when they announce the dates for November, there'll be one up our neck of the woods :D
PM me if you'd like a copy. |
Well I was talked into going to the shows on Friday night at the London Astoria and Saturday night at the Cambridge Corn Exchange, and all I can say is WOW :D These guys seriously rock. Friday night was great but Saturday .... wow, front row and meet & greet afterwards.
Not only do these guys perform amazingly, but they are so down to earth and genuinely nice 8) I am most definitely now a HUGE fan of this band and am so looking forward to seeing them again in November :D My thanks to Ceri (Mad4Jovi) for introducing me to and sharing this great band with me. Their new single 'Loser' is a really great song - you should all go out and buy a copy if you don't already have one. |
I may just do the whole November tour.......... lol
It was great to meet you guys at Cambridge! (Mad4Jovi & LisaE) We had an amaaaaaaaaaaaaazing time, I was a major fan before but now...I am hooked well & truly. Have to concentrate on Bon Jovi now though lol, must get on with that packing! |
I saw Thunder at Monsters Of Rock last year, but I can't really remember them
Keep On Rockin' |
Just been to the Cambridge show,with me best bud,brilliant live band,but then again, they have always been that.New album is good,still can't match the first 2 albums though!
