Having been to numerous concerts the past two years, please give Mike Randle a break. Arthur is a legend but Mike and the band have held him up through several concerts. And Mr Mike Randle is an incredible guitar artist. Who gives a ---- about what shirt he has on. Give me a break! People, addiction has ruined so many incredibly talented people. Instead of abusing Mike, give his band a big thank you for holding up an incredible man who seems to have lost his way. I hope this was just a little stumble and he will get his life together. What a shame to lose him again. Mike R will just go on to bigger and better things. With his talent that's the only way it will go OCFAN |

Thanks Larry I think Bobby needs a little reality check. Read between the lines folks. Arthur is an incredible talent but Mike and his band are also incredible. Arthurs attire seems to be acceptable. Maybe Bobby saw Bend it like Beckham and is a little homophobic. Who cares what they wear? Really. Just a shot a Mike. Poor one at that |

Hi: This was absolutely posted in response to the first post. I have no doubt that you are true LOVE fans, as am I, or you wouldn't be here. Looking foward to the chats. |

To be honest, I don't think the first post was entirely serious either..I've no idea who 'Bobby Fischer' is but it didn't seem any more than a daft joke to me.

I'm assuming you mean Bobby not Beckham. Good one Carnye. I agree. Bobby seems to have lost his ability to speak English. I hope that Arthurs slip, was just that, a slip. He's a legend, no doubt and Forever Changes will always be a classic. I just read several posts and felt that Mike R was being treated unfairly. You've seen the group. He is a sweet, incredibly talented man. I'm puzzled by why people have to try to divide up a group. They are all talents in their own right. In all the concerts I have been too, I have never seen Mike try to upstage Arthur. So why the comments? I guess I'm just curious. |

Who are you actually adressing your post too, Ocfan? I don't know anyone who has tried to 'divide up the group'..everyone I know has nothing but admiration for the band (and, I think, they all know that) |

Caryne: Read the latest posts from Freedom Man. I'm not adressing to anyone specific. What I did is just sit down and read several posts and saw the mindset of some of these fans. Do it yourself and see what you think. I hate to see an incredible group fall apart for one ego. And that ego is not Mike's. I'm just another fan like you and everyone should be praying that Arthur doesn't "self sabotage". On stage, he does not give his band the respect it deserves. Have seen it myself, in person, several times. Maybe my anger isn't at these posts but at the sadness I feel if Arthur blows it, one more time. |

I think the original joke is very much on David Beckham not Mike Randle. Football is a big part of a lot of people's lives and they are just as passionate about it as anyone here is about LOVE. I am always right behind Sheffield Wednesday and England however desparate their situation. Now, there is a lot of strong feeling amongst football fans about Beckham. He doesn't perform and a lot of fans think the adulation, which Beckham himself seems to believe, is extremely misplaced. Beckham is only a good player. Whatever he thinks he is(!) and however he acts off the pitch, he'll only ever be a good player. So you can see why a bit of mickey-taking is inevitable? Beckham isn't cool. On the other hand, Mike Randle is the genuine article. So are Arthur, Chapple, Rusty and Daddyo. None of our love for what these guys have achieved, are achieving and will continue to achieve is misplaced. Their feet are on the ground, unlike Mr Beckham's on a Saturday afternoon.

To the people who still think my "shocked and stunned" message was seriously meant,please read it again and try to notice sentences like "brings tears to my eyes" and "very stunned".If your into football you will understand the humour if not it may as Caryne thinks,seem like a daft joke.But please dont accuse me of attacking Mike or trying to "divide up a group".ok?Only regrets I have is while I was drunk and very stunned sending the notation to my favourite chess game ever,between Bobby Fischer and Paul Benko from 1963 which is of course very off topic on this message board |
