Big Audio Dynamite Live in Glasgow

[alexr]

Last Night I went to see Big Audio Dynamite and it was a great concert. We arrived for a rubbish support act then after that the band came on. The performances were great and it was good to see how much effort was going into this. We were told about how the sounds used are all the original which have been remastered from tape. It was a good audience and the band were very interactive and are still as good as they once were 20 to 30 years ago.

For those unaware of the band heres a quick summary

Big Audio Dynamite are a British musical group formed in 1984 by the ex-guitarist and singer of The Clash, Mick Jones. The group is noted for their effective mixture of varied musical styles, incorporating elements of punk rock, dance music, hip hop, reggae, and funk. BAD's one constant throughout frequent shifts in membership and musical direction are the vocals provided by Mick Jones. After releasing a number of well-received albums and touring extensively throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Big Audio Dynamite disbanded in 1997, but have announced a reunion as of January 2011.

Cool!
I didn't know the band had reformed (once again).
Saw them a couple of times at clubs in NYC in the '80s & hung out with Mick quite a bit when he came down to the Scrap Bar, which was just about every night when he was in town. :lol:
