• 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

Gary Rossington RIP

I was thinking about this earlier, the next 15 years are going to be brutal for rock music and its fans. So many massive bands and musicians in their twilight years and I'm not sure there's much waiting in the wings to step up and replace them. The fanbase is still there I'm just not sure there's enough new music to sustain it. Tribute and nostalgia acts will make a killing though

I think you’re at least half right. There’s plenty of great bands out there but they’re not going to fill arenas, let alone stadiums.

I saw you posted this 2 days ago, maybe you should stop posting music from living artists as you might be bad luck for them. 😉
RIP Gary.

I concur.
 
I'm not really a music fan as such, I don't follow any band like a groupie fanatic, if I like a song, it doesn't matter who the artist is.. musicians are put on a pedestal and are mostly drug taking alcohol fuelled nutters and quite a lot of them are peados.. but people follow them like a cult, like Darran with Cheap Trick and Blaze with iron maiden, Mutey with jazz

It's true though, lots of bands have had sex with 14/15 year old groupies in the 80s without any camera or evidence, plus a well known music artist is Jimmy Saville the 2nd.. musicians are oddballs mun.. yet women are obsessed with the tainted tw*ts

Thank you, I don’t think it’s ever been suggested that I’m in a cult before. 😉
