      61. Bringing me back to Joy Division. The Jam. The Smiths. The Clash. Even the Cure -- the whole vibe. I could go on. I am back to 80s Post Punk but better. Gives me a reason to live too.

    I am 98 years old, at this very moment this is my favorite music, I would like to tell the younger people out there to watch out for this band if they keep going and doing what they are doing, the whole world will get to know about them in the next few years, mark my words they will be proven to be fully correct.

      Me too for the moves - but didn't he have Mark E Smith's famous jumper/tanktop from circa 1980 on for half the set ? The singing style / singing in his own accent, reminds me more of MES. 2 Mancunian legends ye can't go wrong with though...
