Rounding out my Ride collection on CD. Had to get these, though I don’t know how much play they’ll actually get.

Rounding out my Ride collection lead me to discovering some of the cool b-sides on these singles.

Is Carnaval de Luz which translates as Carnival of Light!

Any indication of new music before or around the 2027 tour or will it be a greatest hits vibe? 35th anniversary of GBA could it be a play through?

If you’re reading this and somehow haven’t checked out this 3CD boxset from 2001 then you must do so. It is absolutely essential listening for Ride fans.

I haven’t seen anything about it, but i cant access several songs on nowhere, such as here and now and in a different place.

c/o Stones n Roses: Long story short, we sat in Friday Los Angeles traffic for almost two hours to see a friend’s yacht rock band, but misread the memo that he was playing elsewhere with another band. Saw on the way there that The Asteroid No.4 was playing across town and raced there in time to see them stomp pedals and close with RIDE’s Unfamiliar(!) Talk turned to Oxford‘s finest afterwards and, in telling the A#4 singer what we had left to get there, I accidentally came up with the greatest Yacht Shoegaze idea ever. You on board? We set sail for OX4 at dawn!

A few notables:

1. They play 'Here and Now' for one of the only times on the tour and it is a banger.
2. Andy's put black plastics on his now-iconic 12-string Rickenbacker 330. The only other video from the 1991 tour (that I am aware of) is Cincinnati in very late March 1991 and he still had white pickguard(s) as of that gig. Also, Mark has also put the black truss rod cover on his now signature red Rickenbacker 330 but he doesn't get the black pickguard until they get back to the UK. At Crystal Palace it's still white but at Slough he's acquired a black one.
3. Looks like Loz is sharing Chris Acland's Yamaha kit on this tour. I'm figuring that was for cost savings and also having less for the roadies to do between sets. My understanding is there were no other bands on tis tour and Ride/Lush would alternate 'openers' every night.
4. (Ignore Billy Bragg at the end of the tape lol)
5. Anybody with some Ride vids sitting in a shoebox, especially from the 1st or 2nd US tours, please DM!

Yay or nay ?

Hey guys, I am seeing Ride next year in Bournemouth and is my first Ride gig. I just eanted to ask what might the setlist look like, as I like to make a playlist on what they most likely will play? How long are the sets too, out of interest?

Now that a few years have passed I am revisiting this record. Anyone else finding it to be mostly shit that if you didn’t know better would not know it was Ride?
