@SeanSmithSucks @JamwellTardy @shinjukutheif1 This would have been awesome though.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 Also the ‘project’ IS going to be very well recieved, as much as I hate it social media is needed to blow this up for you, maybe you can have one song out pre full album that ain’t actually on the final full release so it gets the hype building and some extra sales/listens??

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 Lee, if it’s the ‘project’ and evolution of what should have been then every song that you have in your head/fingers. But practically if you have track 13 as a bit of an epic then leave it there as is or I sort say 10/12 tracks, or around 50 mins.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 I’m sure you’ve some audio diamonds to unleash on us. Seen comments about singers. I agree you need a vocal dripping in melody, great story telling and yeah a scream. Maybe 2 vocalists to get the scream?? I’m sure you’ve lots of people in mind but G, Wood (YG) ticks melody.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 They really did, goes to show the scene is still strong. It was a joy to be there. Loads of bands on tour this summer, have you/are you going to catch any of them?

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@1SamRafferty @TheRealSambora Shanks is a parasite and actually makes Bin Jovi, and all the artists he works with, sound boring and shit.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@TheRealSambora Oh blimey, I don’t know what’s going on and non of us truly do as it’s not us directly involved. All I know is my feelings and emotions as a fan and well it’s not Jon in terms of voice:looks but then neither is it Axl/vince etc but I can’t stand seeing shanks in Bon Jovi. RS 4eva

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 I agree and I’d love to turn everything off, but I keep paying so I can find out what’s spending with ‘the project’ - oh hold on, we just don’t pay but still get the electric, yeah I’m in.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 @IngloriousTward Love this comment Lee and I’m thankful I can say I saw BMTH from almost the very start thanks to LP. In fact BMTH are the only band that has been able to fill my LP void.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@TheRealSambora This forthcoming Jovi tour has sold because everyone expects that Jon can’t carry on, so sold on pity and nostalgia and a huge wish that it was going to be you and Phil X on guitars. Jon still sounds awful but everyone also knows with you the vocals would also so better.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@TheRealSambora Richie, everyone knows how critical you are to BJ the band, Jon (shanks) write shit and need you and other songwriters (child, rock etc). u were also THE defining 80s/90s guitarist, like Steve Clark you are both songwriting guitarists full of feel, passion that made the songs.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 @nodevotionband Exciting times with lots being worked on. What do you think we will get to hear first the project or new No Devotion?

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 I proudly have photographs stood with the legends that are Lee Gaze first No Devotion show, and Sean Smith (Blackout and Raiders)….erm like not you two together.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@SeanSmithSucks @shinjukutheif1 Send Brian and invite for S’appenin. Oh and a certain Lee Gaze. We need more of these type of incidents.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@SeanSmithSucks @shinjukutheif1 Hilarious - meanwhile an old Geordie guy in slippers is stood by a bus wondering wtf just happened as a decision was made to never give that snotty Welsh dude with a toxic blonde reverse mullet/side fringe a burger.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 Nice - hope you went for a swim in that pool as well.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 Only you know what the origin really is but there’s a vid on YouTube stating it’s LP from Cardiff Bogiez 1997 with a live sax player. The fleshbind track on YT is titled Buck ‘em Down, sounds great. Also like the madness of Cardiff Barfly 2000.

[damian hopkins @Dhop142]

@shinjukutheif1 Your music journey is far from over but there’s certainly a story to be told here as to how LP came to be, the U.S 80/90s influenced this group of Welsh boys to do what they did and the whole scene with Julie/VN at that time and how LP created opportunities for others.
