Classics of Love and Mike Park tour

Classics of love are another decent punk band, with jesse from operation ivy on lead vocals, and obviously the legendary Mike Park... I know some of the dates have been n gone, but for some of you theres still gigs if you can make them! Classics of love were pretty good!

They're playing in Swansea tonight, I'm not there because I'm ill and poor

Apparently on his blog he said that the Manchester gig was one of the worst nights of his life, or something similar.

Doesn't surprise me. I blame Francis.

I saw these guys in London last weekend and wasnt very impressed.
Mike Park however was godlike as always.

So what exactly did I miss from these guys?
What are they like?

COL were incredible. played an op ivy song and 2 common rider songs, but the original stuff was amazing as well.

Glasgow was great last night. Didnt care much for COL but Mike Park was brilliant! Very good turn out aswell!

They said joke on stage, fits in well here...

How many ska kids does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

4

one to drop it and 3 to pick it up, pick it up, PICK IT UP!!

BOOM!

Aww seriously, i wanted them to play an op ivy song, but thought it'd have been rude to shout for one.

I saw them in nottingham last night. Big big thumbs up for mike park. Not overly impressed with COL then. Apparently, its only the 3rd tour jesse michaels has ever done! he did one with op ivy, one with common riders, and this one with COL! considering how long he's been around i was quite surprised...

how are you people not like COL?! they are just like op ivy but without the ska. so much energy. amazing.
