first remember seeing ride when i was four years old, in 1968 ..... Was going out with rachel goswell at the time, and loz had a paper cut on his hand, so i had to step in and drum .... It was an amazin success, and loz said afterwards, that he'd never seen such a highly skilled musician ..... It was quite a busy time for me, because i was in the north sea with some planks of wood creating the front cover for nowhere ..... Happy days ...... I also wrote most ride songs !

Hello.
I used to have the UK Nowhere tour poster with all the dates (the blue poster with the 4 portrait photos of the guys from the LP inner sleeve) from 1990/1991? I'm trying to track down those venues/dates. Any help would be hugely appreciated.

"The day we finished ‘Going Blank Again’, Mark had the mastered copy and I went round to his house to hear it. We sat in front of his stereo and played the entire album. We were totally gobsmacked. That was the most impressed I’ve ever been with an album I’ve worked on." - yep, and i fucking loved it too. changed my life for a while bastards

Ride are the latest band to hit the reunion trail, following the recent reformations of other indie icons the Jesus and Mary Chain (according to Uncut). Ride fronted by Andy Bell and Mark Gardener were at the forefront of the shoegazing scene until the band's split in 1996 which saw them releasing one of their better LPs, Tarantula (aint that always the way!?).
Members of the group have pursued various pursuits since the break-up, with Andy Bell forming Hurricane#1, and going on to become a member of Oasis (spit). Mark Gardner toured as a solo artist and as Animalhouse, whilst drummer Laurence Colbert has been drumming with the newly reformed JAMC. Ride are tipped to play the North By Northeast Music and Film Festival in Toronto, Canada. The festival takes place June 7-10. There is no word yet whether Ride will play any UK dates, though a live DVD is being planned for release soon.

why have you got a website if you are not going to reform? you want some album sales to prop up the bar bill?.. your very last album was sh*te. you ended on a low. you had so much more, but you just jacked it in. get you arses in gear and give us what we all want. so don't set up these stupid nancy sites in some vain glorious attempt to big up the golden years when you want to feel good about life again when things are shit. that's just pants. you're better than this, or maybe not..

There's some short haiku reviews of the Ride albums at http://www.haikureviewer.com/category/ride/ - I was listening to Nowhere yesterday for the first time in ages and can't believe it came out 20 years ago yet sounds brand new. When are they going to reform?

Hey is Ride's Andy Bell the same Andy Bell that recorded with Paul Roland?
BTW you should warn that the e-mail comes online. Could you please erase it? Tnx.

Ride and slowdive are the my all time favs. i saw slowdive live but never ride. I was 17 and was was going to see them at the mayfair in glasgow. Over 18s venue and the bouncer asked for my dob and i gave the right one doh ! All my friends got in. they bought me a daffodil t-shirt to make up for it. Now 36 and back listening to all my shoegazing favs.
