Regularly see the Stranglers playing and Hugh and his band playing and they're both still firing it out. There won't be a reunion and it's probably a good thing because I remember some pretty tired performances before Hugh left the band because he couldn't be bothered to learn the licks . That's why John Ellis came in to help out.

The best gig he did is glasgow check it out on youtube fantastic.

[Chabub]

The guy's a twat - can't sing, can't play - The Stranglers sound better now than they've ever done.

[sofaguard]

WHAT? oh come on, the stranglers suck without hugh. he is not a twat, a fine player, vocalist and songwriter.

@sofaguard

Maybe twat's a bit strong and yes you're right - he wrote some unforgettable songs - I just think The Stranglers are better live than they've ever been - but at the end of the day that's only one opinion.

I probably should check out Hugh live for myself .

Was at this gig and it was easily the worst one I´ve been at in a hell of a while. Hugh should just retire. Jessica Rabbit on bass might look good but a musician of quality she is not.

Rubbish.

[sofaguard]

[sofaguard]

cooooooooooool
