Happy days, I will be there with bells on

Full, original lineup I am led to believe also.

Used to be quite into The Verve - saw them at Haigh Hall. Although that day was made even more memorable by the fact that we got pulled over by the police on the way there.

Might go and dig out A Storm in Heaven...

new material too apparently

The Verve have announced plans to reform and record new material.

The band have got back together eight years after their acrimonious split, lead singer Richard Ashcroft said in a statement on his website.

A statement added: "The Verve - Richard Ashcroft, Nick McCabe, Simon Jones and Pete Salisbury - were back recording together in a London studio last week.

"After a summer break they will return to the studio to complete their next album."

Ashcroft also said the band, known for hits including Bitter Sweet Symphony and The Drugs Don't Work, planned six gigs in November in Glasgow, Blackpool and London.

Yeah, good point, I did see that also, forgot to mention it.

Will be interesting to see if they still have the same chemistry together.

Told you they still had it, the G-Mex show I went to was fucking great, glad you enjoyed it.

Decent enough tune, looking forward to the album.

Good stuff, seen them a few times. The first was supporting Oasis in '97 before they become famous with Bitter Sweet Symphony.

Good times.

Probably 70 or 75 pounds, depending on the exchange rates. That was for two tickets, by the by.

Fuck no, no competition my good friend.

Radiohead = the greatest band currently recording, I'd sell my own Mother to see them live. The Verve were good live but they aren't a patch on radiohead (seen them 5 times now).

Meh, I find them repetitively depressing. If I could, I'd slap Thom Yorke and tell him to man up but he'd probably write an entire album, crying about the whole incident.

This all stems from too much OK Computer hype. I found the album overly depressing, I do love Pablo Honey and The Bends.
