@TheBritpopShow I have an idea for an upcoming show, inspired by all these great Britpop artists still out there touring. How about a show that only has live performances by Britpop artists.

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow I’m back! My daughter Nikki is not a teenager (born in 1999), but she listened to the Britpop music that I played. Here’s her list:
Suede-So young
Stone Roses-I wanna be adored
Mansun-Wide open space
Seahorses-Blinded by the sun
Oasis-Supersonic
Hurricane #1-Step into my world

[Dave O @orso99]

@GenTXer2 @maggiewestrum I always liked this song. I saw them open for Robert Palmer in 1986 or 87?

@GenTXer2 Rock You Like A Hurricane by the Scorpions

[Dave O @orso99]

@GenTXer2 @LovecraftLuci There was a lot of great music by British bands in the 90’s that never quite had success over here. Glad people might finally hear the Manics. If you haven’t already… make sure you also check out Suede, Gene, Shed Seven, The Bluetones, Longpigs, Mansun, The Seahorses

[Dave O @orso99]

@GenTXer2 I’m sure many/most will disagree… but I think there is an argument for Oasis

[Dave O @orso99]

@ThatEricAlper Andy Bell from Ride, Oasis, and Hurricane #1

@oasiscentral_ @liamgallagher @BoneheadsPage Without thinking about it… the three that popped into my head were:
The Masterplan
Slide Away
Whatever

@TheBritpopShow @LongpigsBand @oasis Do I dare say Stone Roses?

[Dave O @orso99]

@GenTXer2 Suzanne Vega Suzanne Vega (1985)

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow I always go back to Britpop as my favorite though

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow FYI. Though I live in the US, I was/am a bigger Britpop fan than Grunge fan. But I enjoy all kinds of music

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow Nirvana-In Bloom
Pearl Jam-Alive
Smashing Pumpkins-Cherub Rock or Today or Disarm (big Pumpkins fan)
Alice In Chains-Would?
Soundgarden-Spoonman
Hole-Miss World
Stone Temple Plots-Vasoline
Veruca Salt-Seether
Dinosaur Jr-Feel the Pain
Screaming Trees-Nearly Lost You

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow I already made a list of top bands/songs that I thought represented the grunge period. Do you want it?

[Dave O @orso99]

@franhealy Fran, have you seen any of Buster Keaton’s movies? The physical comedy in those is something to see. His timing and skills are amazing!

[Dave O @orso99]

@TheBritpopShow Perhaps a Britpop vs. grunge themed show coming up? Or an all Britpop bangers one?

[Dave O @orso99]

@GenTXer2 Suzanne Vega
Edie Brickell
Natalie Merchant
Tracy Chapman
