Went to watch Bad Manners last night. It was their 50-year anniversary tour.
They sounded great, as ever. Such a fun band to watch live. The horn section were so energetic. Buster looked well as well. His voice sounded rough, but not when he sang.
A quotation from Thomas Fuller
When thou art in the Company of Ladies behave civilly, and shew good Breeding. They will easily pardon a Man’s Want of Sense, but rarely his Want of Manners.Thomas Fuller (1654-1734) English physician, preacher, aphorist, writer
Introductio ad Prudentiam, Vol. 2, # 2214 (1727)

"Walking in the sunshine" - Bad Manners
A short film of the band showing the delights of sunny Southend.
Come for the rain, stay for the drizzle, and the local tradition of the tipsy waiter spilling a little red wine over your white shirt.
A quotation from Robert Heinlein
A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot. […] This symptom is especially serious in that an individual displaying it never thinks of it as a sign of ill health but as proof of his/her strength.Robert A. Heinlein (1907-1988) American writer
Friday, ch. 23 [Boss] (1983)
