ReplyDeleteThank goodness it spent only one week at No.1
DeleteI haven't commented for a while, but I'm still enjoying these reruns. 1998 was a big year for me, turned 18, left home for uni, went to my first festival (v98) and a ton of gigs so a lot of good memories of that year. Radiohead, Ian Brown and Oasis were standouts from this ep. Is Ian Brown still a conspiracy theorist? Oasis, Stone Roses and Radiohead were ones that got away from that era in terms of acts I saw live. Although I didn't see Blur until years later either.
ReplyDeleteDespite not seeing Stone Roses, I knew I'd seen both Ian Brown and the Seahorses so apparently they were both at v98!
DeleteRob, can you put up the TOTP2 episodes of 24 & 30 Jan 98 please?
