| Discussion: Dr And The Medics Pages: 1 2 they are merely 2 pieces of cloth, carefully stitched together!>>By hurdygurdypigfucker i have just seen Doctor and the Medics playing live, and they are the best laugh i have had in a long time. the band really look as if they enjoy playing together, and the Doctor was funny, sang really well, and the whole evening rocked!! the 1500 people in the audience were loving every joke, song and were swept away by the enthusism of the band. This is want i want to see when i go to a concert, not some geezer with a computer and a backing track and some clone of a girl/boy singing meaningless drivel. And Boy bands? keeeeeeeeeeel them all! all the company manufactered bands all look the same, sound the same and are here today, gone tomorrow. BUY DR and the MEDICS. give a real band some real money- keep music live >>By [DaMN] STFU how old is the lead singer and where does he live >>By skidyjohn Clive Jasckson (lead singer) is from Brecon S. Wales >>By rob When I was born my mam used to play me spirt in the sky and since then this has been my favourite ever song and I would just like to know more details about the group who sang this song if any body can help me email me at kinkygirl330@hotmail.com Thank you >>By kinkygirl went to see them once (i think i was off my face)in Camden I was a deeply confused raver with mental problems. We did a really silly dance called the bug or the beetle where everyone lay on the floor and kicked their legs in the air like flipped bugs. Did anyone else experience this or am i mad. regards sam >>By sam when were dr and the medics a hit? 16 years ago according to the dr himself, say them on Saturday (totally amazing) they were a 1 hit wonder with Spirit in the Sky. >>By Tosky Anyone know where I can find the lyrics to their song "Burn"? I have a friend who's been trying to find them for a while now. thanks. :) >>By Wisp i love the guitar parts,where can i get the tab for spirit in the sky >>By andy One of my best friends is Jane Jug from Dr & The Medics - can anyone give me some links to dodgey old photo's of them - she is not being forthcoming with any help on this >>By Dangerbird Ola ... Names Jaymo, huge medics fan from the states now lving in Germany and lampy for a couple UK bands. one of which our drummer Monti used to play drums with you lot. Great stories of a great time he tells. keep thinking its tuesday Clive.. Cheers for the tunes Jaymo >>By Jaymo please no advertising and no pretending you are the subject of the discussion. if you *are* tsotd, contact me (impressum). thanx. >>By mg mg If I knew how to contact you I would, no clues any where. Who else would have an email address of doctor@doctorandthemedics.com try it i'll respond as Im pretty cheesed off with you. This is a notice board about MY BAND and there is no reason why I should not use it to respond to people kind enough to take an interest in us. email me and let me know what your problem is. And why you removed the comment from the people who came to see us at Minehead beggars belief. I await with anticipation THE DOCTOR >>By Doctor Why was my rave review about Minehead rubbed off? Give me some gig info, there's nothing on your site. I'm desperate to bring new blood to your shows. >>By martyn Or try martyn.worlock@bt.com >>By martyn Seems the Furher has allowed us censor free chat!! Any one coming to see us with Hawkwind on Sunday (26/5) Please come and say hello. By the way get there early as we are on at 8.oopm Love Peace and Bananas Doctor PS Credit to Amazon they are selling "Laughing at the Pieces" for us (CD issue of original 1986 LP) which I am listening to now and sounds better on CD than Vinyl. By the way if you collect odd stuff hurry as the printers have cocked up the first 500 and the spine of the CD gives the title as "Laughing at the peices" (Note spelling of Pieces) Just cant get the staff these days. >>By The Doctor Ahoy Doctor & All Medics Out At Sea! "Laughing At The Pieces" is such a brilliant effort,and it's so sad that only the cover song got pushed! Frankly,I don't even think it's the real fans that made them a "novelty cover band",it was the suits wot done it! Oh well....those of us whom enjoy you for the music and laughs,are the ones whom know better. Anyroad,just a shout to the Doc. & All,glad to know yer still making the 'rounds......maybe to California sometime in the future? All the best,from a long time American fan. ( well....not "Druids" long,but "Happy But Twisted" long. ) ( and thanks for co-writing "Grimly Fiendish" as well. ) >>By Harvey J.Satan Anyone know where I can get "The Goats are Trying to Kill Me" on vinyl? I've got the live version on the "Live at Alice in Wonderland" and know that the original vinyl is rarer than hen's teeth but there must be some spare one out there somewhere!! Hey Doctor - If you read this: thanks for all the great music. "Instant Heaven" is a regular visitor to my CD player and the new version of "Laughing" (hey - I've got one of the rare ones) is already starting to wear thin (Okay I know CDs don't wear out but it's like a reference back to the old days of vinyl!! - ha ha). Really looking forward to the 2CD collection. Kev >>By Yeskev Clive the lead singer is also fom eltham in south london or he was last time i knew him >>By mel_blondeuk Ive only got one copy of Goats/Druids myself. Ebay is the only option and I've only ever seen one for sale there. No plans for California yet. Yes I was a scout leader at one point and only gave it up as the band got busy. I thought it important to get kids out of London and up mountains, in rivers etc. to expand their experiences. There is still no greater organisation in the world to give kids a chance to do stuff they'd not do otherwise. It gets a lot of bad press but im happy to stick my neck out and give it some poss feedback. Thanks again for all the great comments Love Peace and Bananas El Doctore!! >>By The Doctor Can Doctor and the Medics really be classed as "One Hit Wonders"? According to the Guinness Book of Hit Singles they had three chart entries - "Spirit", "Burn" (4 weeks, highest placing no.29), and "Waterloo". Sorry, it's a bit pedantic, I know. Personally I've always thought they should have had more chart success - "Burn", "Drive She Said", and "More" were all excellent singles and should all have done well but I suppose they just weren't mainstream enough. I know chart placing is no measure of success but it seems to be what counts for the general public. >>By Yeskev Yeskev, Thanks for that. Also sang on Ferry Aid (No1) and wrote lyrics for Grimley Fiendish by the Damned (No 21). Chart success was fun but no where near as much fun as gigging was and still is. Dr >>By The Doctor Hi, just found this site after extensive medical searching, while out today i spotted a poster for Dr & the Medics. Last time I saw them they were playing acoustic ( which in my opinion was just as brill as they have always been) , but sadly the only original members there were Steve and Clive. Now I see a poster and it is only Clive that I recognise. where has the magnificent mcguire gone??????? and will there ever be any more Alice revivals???? >>By Barbie Ride the beetle ride...all those years ago and many gigs gone by I used to frequent the gigs of Dr and the medics and ocasionally the groovy cellar and most memorably the 24 hour technicolour dream at Butlins Clacton unless my memory fails me.......the answer is simple....WHAT.......the druids are here!!! >>By Druid at heart Would like to say a big thank you to The Doctor & his group for a great show last night at St Albans. Shame that the crowd was on the small side, but I think everyone there enjoyed the performance. Look forward to seeing you there again in december for the christmas show with slade. all the best Luke. 8/06/03 >>By Luke Bantin Wow!!! I was at St Albans too :) It was excellent wasn't it....I went really just for t-rextasy but Dr and The Medics were fantastic...I'd almost forgotten how much I loved them when I was 6 (all those years ago). Like you I can't wait for December with Slade (ok they'd be better WITH Noddy but I still don't mind if I get to see SLADE!!! and apparently t-rextasy again too...though Danielz wasn't 100% certain) Do you know what date this one's gonna be yet? Love to all you medicaholics (and much love to the sexy doctor himself :P) CQ >>By Coda Queen Hi Guys I have just finished playing the drums for Dr and The Medics in Aberdeen Brum and St Albans. I have had a great time, and look forward to rocking with you guys again soon. Most fun and less sleep I have had since starting in this crazy world of Rock N Roll. Keep rockin Mikeyboy >>By Mikeyboy Anyone know when the Slade/Dr & Medics Christmas dates will be announced?? >>By Yeskev The Slade Dr & the Medics dates will be on our site doctorandthemedics.com in the next couple of weeks as they are being finalised now. and Mikeyboy it was a pleasure having you on board, if we dont play your wedding then have a good one, hope to see you soon Love and peace (cause everything else is a hassle) >>By The Doctor Pages: 1 2 |
