    Anyone got any news on the Amnesty concert at Milton Keynes?
    
    I keep missing out on the music press lately and haven't heard anything
    for a while. Last I heard Joe Strummer was a maybe, BAD were on,
    Lloyd Cole was on, Tom Waits (I hope) was on.....
    
    Also, When is it? Where can I get tix (Reading/Newbury)? etc...

    Saw Then Jerico on the Montreux Rock Festival on telly last night.
      
    They were good.  I've not heard that much of Then Jerico stuff so I      
    couldn't tell you what they did, but the guys had their act together.

    Well, it seems that (partly at least) I can answer my own question
    now.....
    
    I got their (only) album, entitled "First (The Sound Of Music)" which
    contains their hit single "The Motive", but not their most recent
    chartbuster (!) "The Big Sweep".  I have no idea when the album
    was released, since the cover (CD) is devoid of any dates whatsoever.
    It's a good album, *very* energetic, I suppose one could compare
    them as a sort of A-ha with a bit more aggression! 
    
    Did TJ play *live* at Montreux?  Or did they mime?  I heard that
    a lot of Montreux contributors were miming this year, which to me
    makes the whole thing something of a farce.

    As far as I can tell they were live, but don't quote me on that
    :-)

53.6In front of a *live* audience?!ARGUS::CHILTONWe'll be together tonightMon Aug 08 1988 18:597
    Rathole:
    
    Friday night we saw some of the artists at Montreux this year and
    I was surprised to see Steve Winwood lip-synch to the recording.
    There was someone else too, but I can't remember who it was..
    
    Why do they do it?  Anybody?
