    I don’t think these people realize or appreciate how LUCKY they are to be sitting within feet of a legend, for real. Amazingly talented musician and vocalist. No autotune, just raw talent unlike many of the current bands. Very very cool. Wish I was there for that!!!

    I've been a BNL fan for decades. I love nearly everything they've put out, from their wonky older stuff to their newer stuff, but I cannot deny that he was the heart of the group, vocally, if not musically. I still enjoy their music, but it's absolutely not the same without him.
    I don't see it happening, but I pray for a reunion, if not now, maybe 5 years down the line. But until then I'm going to focus on him rather than them, because he is the heart and soul of so much of the music I loved growing up.

    • @beccajanestclair
      @beccajanestclair  7 років тому +3

      Very doubtful even in 5 years time. I think Kevin still talks to him, but I don't think any of the other guys do. Personally, I love BNL with or without Steve. It's funny, because Kevin wasn't an original member of BNL and neither was Tyler, yet no one says BNL isn't the same without Andy!

    I adore this mans voice. I cant believe he can still hit that high Break Your Heart note. I didn't realise till I watched this video that these are all my favourite songs sans Blame It On Me, Crazy and Tonight is the Night. Steve is so wonderful live, BNL are missing a bit of that soul now, I know it's unlikely but I'd love to see them perform together again. Maybe something like this? This is how Pete and Carl of the Libertines got back togehter. I wish I could've been there.

    I got one of those yellow covered indy tapes and all albums since as a big fan from the very start. Gordon was my life at the time, including the green dress. My kids grew up listening over and over. We could probably sing the songs in our sleep. Keep on rocking' Steven.

    This man is still very gifted, I had been fortunate to see one of his last performances as bnl lead vocalist. After following this band from inception to end I was distraught.. I truly love watching and listening to him, I have not followed the band since his departure..
    But so excited for the Juno's this weekend..an actual reunion. . I won't be missing 1 minute of that.. much respect to you Mr. Page

    • @realphilg
      @realphilg 4 роки тому

      I really wish they would just all get back together.All are gifted,but without each other it's not the same.I am from that area,and heard from several people that this guy is just such a rude ass dick.I believe yes he is esentric. a dick? maybe I don't know,but for me I just wish they all put ego's aside,and go on with the amazing music they have made over the years.

      It was kind of funny. I didn't get video of it, but someone else probably did of the accordion busker who interrupted Alcohol and then stuck around thinking that Steve was just a busker with a crowd. A few people had to give the guy money to get him to leave. And there were people on the other side of the path who sat down to eat their lunch and listen and I don't think they knew who he was either!
