• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Gotta have some balls to rock those outfits, fair play.🤭
 
I can imagine all the morons clamouring to see them 'live' :lol: :lol: :lol:

Probably paying bucket loads of money to see cartoons mime to their songs :lol: :lol:

"but there's a live band!!!" - mugs
 
In the flesh I'd say brilliant. This CGI nonsense is not for me.
Using this technique then you could have Elvis Presley back

Quite right, Dicky. it's a cynical marketing ploy to pretend they're still in their twenties when they're clearly not. Why not have the balls to go out on stage with wrinkles, paunches, zimmer frames, hearing aids, whatever else and say "We're OAPs and we're not ashamed of it, we can still sing, so suck it up or feck off!"

Mind you, I wouldn't cross the road to watch ABBA, 1970s or 2020s.

Couple of drinks tonight mate and I’ll be arguing that one with Mrs LJ ! How about this for a bit of pretentious shit.

Gotta be said, I love ABBA and the two new songs are superb. Wouldn’t go to see the hologram show mind but each to their own.

Muso snobs can fuck right off. 👍

Fair enough.

I've lately discovered the joy of streaming (or paying for and downloading) music (yes, I know, welcome to the 2020s) and it's taken me back to my youth, making up cassette tapes with your favourite ttracks for the car, only now it's making up an SD card. I've just added Catatonia - Road Rage and Warren Zevon - Werewolves of London. Feckin brill!

Catalonia’s International Velvet is a superb album. I haven’t listened to that for years but I will tomorrow now.

Warren Zevon and Werewolves of London - that takes me back to a trip to the States back in the 80’s when that was more or less on constant play on a juke box at a dive of a bar we used to frequent in Florida. Epic days.
 
Knowing me Knowing you - pretending to understand the deep meaning of the lyrics to get a snog at the YFC barn dance. Those were the days.
