OnionTerror Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Perhaps you go and see them live as much as you can, or buy all their weird side-project stuff. Mine's probably Six By Seven. Nearly made it big about 15 years ago, but never quite got there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Hovis Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I did when I was younger with XTC, although by then they had stopped touring (1982). I had everything, I still like them but don't listen to any of it much because as I've heard it all so many times it lacks that fresheness you need to really enjoy music. Does anybody, for isntance, actually enjoy hearing Stairway to Heaven? Great song, seriously overplayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I will learn "stairway to heaven" on a ukulele! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't think of them as clever clever, more like a British Talking Heads so with more reference points for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
