@Bukowski I couldn't agree more. I put them into the explore search on here yesterday and it gave me one song by them and umpteen songs by The Smiths! Hence my need to put some up today :) x
@simonp @abigail.deeksThat is one of two band t-shirts that I still miss having worn them out - the other was The Family Cat t-shirt. @Bukowski totally agree about George Best.
The Wedding Present are one of my favourite bands and David Gedge is a bloody nice bloke. I met him once and he put me on the guest list for one of their gigs., where they just happened to be supported by My Bloody Valentine.
@StillHonest1 Love The Family Cat too, saw them play in '91. Haven't got any of my original band t-shirts. Replaced my Meat is Murder one a couple of years ago but it just isn't the same!

I flippin well love The Wedding Present; jangly guitar songs about being p*SSed off; what's not to like?

@abigail.deeks 'George Best' is one of my favourite albums (and David Gedge is a really nice chap)..

@abigail.deeks It was the slogan on one of their t-shirts at the time, always made me laugh

@simonp Oh I see, silly me! :)

@Bukowski Yes have had lots of reports on the loveliness of David Gedge.
simonp
@abigail.deeks Not at all. They did get a bit of stick back in the day for just that but not from anyone who knows anything. Like all of us here.
