I hope i'm a 1000000% wrong & i'll be 1st to buy a ticket if they do play again but I wasn't the one being negative to be honest & I felt when I read Catherine's post I was being accused of being some kind of Judice when all I did was make an innocent comment. End of my "negativity" Not at all, Sarge, had I been accusing you of being some kind of Judas figure, I would have said so - but as I don't see you as a traitor, which is, after all, what Judas was, therefore the last thing I would do is accuse you of being such.
We all know, that as time passes, the chances of The Sensational Alex Harvey Band ever playing together again become increasiingly remote. That much is obvious.
However, I believe that the very fibre and morale of the forum, which repeatedly takes beatings by the actions of those who subscribe to it, does not need what could be perceived as an apparently semi-official statement, through the grapevine, from Ted.
If memory serves me correctly and I think you'll find it does, this most recent post of the chances of the band playing together again, is not the first time that you have posted such a juicy snippet from Ted.
Ted has been asked, several times, since the last triumphant ABC gig to draft a statement to be posted on the open forum - he declines to do so - not delays in doing so, like the Q & A but, declines - or has, thus far.
Until such times as that statement is issued, it is my personal opinion - the only one I'm qualified to give - that such a post is negative in the extreme and is therefore potentially damaging to the forum - this time, poor old Moopig is gutted and feels like he's been kicked in the nuts - however, he thanks you for the information and is all set to give up wishing and grow right on up. That's a shame, really.
But then, you say here endeth your negativity - good!! That's the ticket!!
Now, perhaps, if we take just a little care when digesting the flat written word (always open to misinterpretation - e.g. my BBC parlance post) and get on with the forum, as best we can, stop having a pop at folk, stop disappearing in flurries of talcum powder, just maybe, it could be fun again, light hearted banter, a pleasant and social place to spend some time, united, as we are. by the common denominator of being fans of The Sensational Alex Harvey Band.
If the band ever does play again, I'll see you there - I'll be the first to have my name on the guest list!!

Me too !!!!!
never say never, coz none of us know whats round the corner, what seems to be set in stone today could be a whisper blowing away on the wind tomorrow, and at the risk of sounding like an old hippy, the power of positive thought can do no harm and might even help!!!
lets remember 04/02/2012 is the 30th anniversary of Alex's sad passing, and maybe just maybe something good could happen to mark the great mans departure and to celebrate the mark he left on all when he was here, bandmates and fans alike, i say this as nothing more than blind optimism and have no reason to believe things will happen just because we want them to, but to paraphrase a line from one of my favourite films Field Of Dreams "If you build it, he will come"
"if we wish for it, it might happen" then again it might not, but isn't it better to hope for something good than resign ourselves to thinking its all over, its only all over when we're all dead, up until then, anythings possible!!!!!!!!!!

My favourite saying at the moment is 'where there's life there's hope'. Best not to mention it - if it happens it happens and we will be delighted but if not there's not much we can do about it. So just keep hoping. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it sing- or something like that anyway.

Sorry but I have never ever had a conversation with Ted or any other member of SAHB regarding whether they will play again or not. When I spoke to Ted I never even brought the subject up at all...he did, all I said to Ted was "Hi Ted, I'm you in the tribute band". When a thread was started asking if anybody thought SAHB would play again I gave my opinion which was & still is "I doubt it"....my opinion that's all!!

This thread was about Chelsea Rob thinking that SAHB playing the re-opening of The Liquid Rooms was a logical step, given they were the last band to NEARLY play that venue.
I don't believe that Rob thought for a moment that it would turn into a nit picking tit for tat nonsense.
Therefore, I apologize to Rob, for contributing to the fecking of his thread and I retire from the tit for tat crap - it's too tedious and tiresome.

Max said: feck yeah ya spazzy northern thingy
Chris Said: feck yeah so long as you stop stalking me
Ted Said: yeah, i'll just finish this list o questions
Hugh said: ok just for you John.
Zal said: Cos thy lives near me lad i'll play a riff or two ay up coal n lard
Alex said: I can't make it sorry...... and then winked and went back to the party.
I swear that bugger was on stage at Holmfirth.
Sorry if i stirred the shit.
Close eyes, live my vision, pick your own venue.
