I love how both Simon and Garry kind of blamed Bob (affectionate) when it came to the Rats being hated in the US because Bob kept making jokes about 1) Bruce Springsteen 2) american radio speakers and people did not take those jokes very well

Another song thing I'm working on. Ignore the iffy sound quality, my computer is a toaster with a screen.
I apologize for never trying Bob Geldof's solo work. Vegetarians of Love is a pretty cool album.
everybody talks about the "john love" part of this clip but paul's reaction to ringo throwing the hole on the ground kills me. hes so faggy with it
we love growing up neurodivergent in a hostile environment that forces us to learn basic life skills and social skills much later in life than our peers 😃😃😃😃😃😃

I have to recycle this one every now and then

There are only, like, two different instances of Europe Looked Ugly on the internet, but I have a vinyl of V Deep with it on the track listing. I am very close to owning what could just be lost (or very hard to maintain) media.
WHY ON EARTH did they not add B-sides to the 2005 remasters of the albums??? Sure, put on a live version of Nothing Happened Today on streaming, it's not like the B-Side to literally your most popular single is right there. Waiting.
Like Clockwork is a really good song -- kind of a precursor to Wind Chill Factor, if you think about it -- but in terms of album openers, I find it's placement on A Tonic for the Troops kind of strange. (Almost So Strange, haha.) It's not bad, or anything, it just doesn't really set the brighter tone that the album has compared to their self-titled, and I consider Blind Date the real "beginning" of the record.
Everyone around my age is always like “My first concert was One Direction! My first concert was Coldplay!” Bitch my first concert was The Wiggles and my mum absolutely HATED IT. Apparently it was in a fancy theatre and all the kids were having the time of their lives whilst my mother, forever being dragged into my bullshit special interests, was sat there slowly losing the will to live. 10/10 experience, wish I could remember more of it
My first concert was also the Wiggles!!! I was two years old and got to hi-five the original yellow one as they ran up the aisles. Pretty cool!

Early Boomtown Rats Gigs were great bc you could pay real money just to get humiliated by Bob Geldof
a very performance of up all night (i think the audience is singing along to the chants? funny if so,)

bob & pete, from the rats facebook
does anybody know any current artists who are inspired by the boomtown rats and have actually said so? the best I've got is I Don't Know How But They Found Me, and even then that's only because one of their song titles is just a reference to the band.
