Wasted Youth Poll

[Jeff]

With the recent release by Bridge House Records of Wasted Youth's Memorialize CD, which is a compilation of all Wasted's singles and B-sides digitally remastered for the digital age.
We thought it would be interesting to see what single is the favourite.

Hi Dell, at least ,you me and Jeff are doing our best
to fly the flag.
Do you remember the Cult,well Billy Morrison who was in the band and a Wasted Fan, is now involve on a Radio Station in the U.S.A. indie 103.1 we can get it over here, on the web. Steve Jones drummer with the  sex pistols   is also a Dj. there.
Billy  has a copy of Memorialize, and is giving it some plays,
so we are once again spreading the work.
has the P.M answered yet?

[Dell]

Hi Terry
I'm still flying the flag after 26 years! I have written to the P. M. on the understanding of 'Cash for Favours' - does that carry weight down in Essex? How much to stage a WY re-union.....?

cheers terry, will try to think some up for ya  ..  here's 1 to start with.. anybody know exactly how many gigs the band did?

[itsonu]

Just voted for "jealousy", was my first contact with WY. In the early 80ies i could also get hold of rebecca's room and i'll remember you. Only a little time back (month or 3) i bumped into the live album and that started things rolling again. In the mean time i finally got the album "Wild & Wandering" a great album still after all these yeas. I like Survivors pt 2 (Charly & Harry?) most (until now). Last week i also found a copy of the beginning & the end (including the single!!!) only 5 euro!!!! (3,5 gbp)... Still looking for "reach out".

Question: Did WY ever played in the netherlands???

Cheers

[TerryMurphy]
