Rats/Strypes professional quality

I wish he'd cut me put. I went to blank and started talking utter gibberish

This video has both songs with The Strypes. It looked like a lot of fun on that stage.

It is great up until the last few seconds. We've grown used to the F word from Geldof over the years but I don't care at all for his use of the C word. It's a vile word and 'cheeky' doesn't even begin to cover it.

It's not big and it's not clever. Just putting it out there.

You can just type **** and ****, they don't show . I haven't fully tested the profanity filter, but S****horpe fails whereas Arsenal is OK, and as for Jarvis ****er...

... I have to admit I just can't play the live albums out loud at home or in the car, even my 15 year old son was amazed. I wonder how many profanities Geldof squeezes in between songs? I doubt the Super Furry's 22 minute live version of The Man Don't Give a **** manages as many as Geldof does in 22 minutes of the average Rats gig.

There are frequent complaints at festivals about Bob's language

I'm not ****ing surprised!

As you can see in umpteen of my posts, I don't have an issue with profanity, but given there are a wide variety of people at a festival, you'd think he'd cut it out. It's not as if he went on the Late Late Show and cussed all the way through it.

Hell, Shaun Ryder swears far less on stage, and he can barely construct a three word sentence without incorporating a couple of profanities

I'm not defending him. That snippet of song was most likely something he heard in London, hence the 'mockney' singing voice. Maybe he had a few glasses of wine too, after 40 years of the Rats. Maybe cheeky was the wrong word, more a bit gross really.

I suspect that if were were to hear every Geldof private conversation or utterance then we may be in for some surprising and shocking 'letdowns'.

Funny the video has been removed.

You can' have Saint Bob singing songs like that. But they could have just edited out the final 30 seconds of Geldof, the rest was a little tribute to the bands 40th anniversary.

He won't stop. Chris Evans asked him not to. he modified it, but refused to stop altogether. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

That's Hamish who does the Rats FB page and does the Rats photography who recorded this. Wonder why he removed it? This has happened before he's put things up to promptly remove them!

Who? Geldof or Shaun Ryder? I don't remember Shaun Ryder modifying anything!

I don't know what time the Late Late Show went out, but the name implies it is on late and he didn't swear on that, yet he will quite happily cuss at three in the afternoon or whenever the Rats come on at a festival full of grannies, grandads and kids who came to look at some cars. I suppose at least they know it's him on the stage...

- Isn't that Bob Geldof there? No, is it? Wait a second.

- It is.

- He's looking a bit rough.

- He lost all his money in that Live Aid thing.

- I'm not sure if it is Bob Geldof.

- Hang on there a second.

- Excuse me, are you?

- Feck off!

- It's himself, all right.

ArrGee · Back To Boomtown

You know, you should really get a haircut.

Don't go too far down that Bob Geldof road.

- God, Ted, that's a bad road.

- It is indeed, Dougal.

And there's no coming back.

As Bob himself will tell you.

Geldof modified a little.

Geldof's final foul-mouthed ditty should have been edited out, nothing else; it was excellent otherwise and it was great to see how much fun was had by all.

I think the video is still on YouTube, but have not rewatched it to see if there were any edits.

It is still removed. You may have it cached.

I think it has been uploaded again, I'm sure I saw it there. Might have been mistaken.

I can't get it either, says removed by user.

The post has been deleted from the FB page.

manatthetop · In the Long Grass

Just wording if this will be the next live dvd??

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Surely if there is going to be a live DVD it should be from Dublin.

Boomtown Rats · Lookin' After Number 1

Sorry about video but sound quality really not good enough to rock our boat; and as for the use of the 'c word' in the mockney song, it's just part of the trad song.

Mark L · Loudmouth

Maybe, but there's a time and a place for everything and You Tube with no warning is not it. Neither are daytime family pop festivals.

I known it's Bob and all that but if a 64 year old male came up to one of your kids in the street with this kind of language, most people would be aghast .

Locking gay people up was part of our 'traditional' criminal law til 1967. Just because it's 'trad' does not meant it is right.

No naughty words allowed on this forum. Bit annoying on that thread "Jarvis ****er ****s up in S****horpe". Arsenal is OK though
