Advice from Old People
Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

Thee Hypnotics
...were fucking brilliant. No-one cared at the time - no-one does now.
For a young chap in the mid-80s it was the closest you could get to seeing the Stooges or the MC5 - until the Stooges reformed: I saw the Funhouse gig at Hammersmith and was blown away.
AC/DC and Motorhead are both incredible live. Looking forward to checking out Airbourne too.
That said, Gong blew me away last week too, on a different tip.
Best I ever saw was Hawkwind at various free festivals in the 80s - however I was somewhat *enhanced* each time so perhaps my neurotransmitters may have been filling in a few gaps...
