It's played on rock instruments, but it owes more to twentieth-century composers such as Steve Reich and Arnold Schoenberg than it does to Chuck Berry. . Mogwai started because the members were tired of playing bad covers of Funkadelic and "Brown Sugar"; they wanted to make music in the tradition of Joy Division and the Jesus and Mary Chain, to make records they would want to buy. Braithwaite and Aitchison, both college students in Glasgow, met at a Ned's Atomic Dustbin concert and formed Mogwai in the summer of 1995. looloo PS shall i get them tix shaz -- do you have a babysitter?? ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2003 22:59:01 +0100 From: "looloo" Subject: RE: seven-seas list of influences? >Preston School of Industry >sorry if they've already been mentioned... >Shaz >> i remember someone mentioning them ages & ages & ages ago but i never got round to listening to anything then i forgot the name ..... now i got to try & find something to listen to ... but i'm sure shaz'll help me out :-) looloo ====================================== http://www.bunnymenlist.com ====================================== ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Apr 2003 17:18:36 -0500 From: Red Subject: RE: seven-seas list of influences?
