Description:

Ride is the greatest band in the history of music. Science has proven this.

Recent peer-reviewed studies by musicologists have come to the conclusion that RIDE is the greatest band in the history of music. This controversial study is based upon scientifically tested empirical experiments which prove beyond any doubt that RIDE, a one-time "Shoegazing" band from Oxford, England, is many magnitudes superior than any other band in all histories of music, including extrapolations using Quantum mechanics of potential bands that will arise in the future, as well as those that have arisen in alternative universes.

If you have been convinced of these plain facts, then please join our group - The Mouse Trap - which will act as a conduit of truth and harmony towards humankind for centuries to come as RIDE's songs turn our dirty globe into a utopian paradise in which Mark Gardener, Andy Bell, Laurence Colbert and Steve Queralt reign as a Quadrinity, dispensing their wisdom to a world that is still painfully suffering from exposure to too many Spice Girls songs.

So, grasshopper, leave those other groups all behind, come up for air, get stuck in the Mouse Trap and watch your dreams burn down as the seagull leaves a vapour trail across the sky. Just make sure you don't go in a different place, lest you be paralyzed like a daydream and end up nowhere.

Not my news/message: "Hi all nothing confirmed at this stage, but i have heard a rumour that there will be a creation records anniversary show at the roundhouse in camden/chalk farm later this year. i would hope that a certain band will be appearing.... but what odds would you get on a ride reunion at this show? andy bell's future isn't looking so certain after the oasis split last week. how cool would that be? all just rumours at the moment, but if i hear any more i'll post it here. roscoe."

yeah bad thing that WE cant "save" him. Nor reunite the band. Believe me I thought through a lot of things but nothing legal I can do.

Dear ride fans! It is a proven fact that ride is the greatest band in music history. None can seriously doubt that. Anyways I would like ask you to link the legendary "Field Mice" to this forum. I mean this is called Mouse Trap! It is only logical. http://www.lastfm.de/music/The+Field+Mice
