Marillion

I was just interested to know if there are any fellow Marillion fans on this board?

I get funny looks at work becuase they say Im too young to like Marillion (who haven been around for the 80's, 90's and 00's)

Yet I have listened to them for as long as I can remember,

Never heard of them, why not listen to some demo's/examples of their site

http://www.marillion.com/

I carry there name in my sig too

(Im trying to get Miek into them, but I think Im failing )

I suppose I should Bump this,

Still looking for a Marillion fan though

Bertha

You found one here

It was a natural progression for me, after the demise of the original 'Gabriel' Genesis

Hey,

Yeah!!

3162 you like Marillion

At last,

Better with or without Fish?
I prefer them without,

Bertha

I dunno.....I kind of liked Fish's drunken antics

I prefer Steve Hogarth, as the lead man

Bertha

Return of the Giant Hogweed?

what?

Bertha

return of the Giant Hogweed

ahh that takes me back...

"Long ago in the Russian Hills..."

UKBiker

Am I missing somethign here?

Bertha

Return of the Giant Hogweed is a very old Genesis song, i think its on "nursey Crimes". Sorry, I was just reminiscing.

personally I prefer Marillion with Fish, one hell of a frontman, mind you, the chap who replaced him also does a great job. have you heard any of the solo albums from Fish? Try "raingods with Zippos". I have it playing at the moment.

UKBiker

Im not a big Fish fan, although we do have some of his solo albums,

I much prefer Steve Hoarth who is far better than Fish as the front man for Marillion in my opinion

Bertha

I must admit that I have not seen them with Steve Hogarth, and to be honest, the last time I saw marillion with Fish, he was completely incoherent.
I must go and see them next time they are touring, are the rest of the band the same guys?


UKBiker

Yes there still the same guys,

I carry the website in my sig for Marillion

Also they are touring in Novermber, (a Christams gig) they are currently finishing off a world tour, I saw them on that

Anyway they have announced 2 dates so far for this special gig, one is in Wolverhampton Civic Hall and the other is down London

Check their site out for details
