JWL Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Can anyone help with this one. Is my mind playing tricks or did Neville Staples dedicate A Message To You, Rudy to Jerry Dammers or was it Do Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I think it was Rudy. It definitely wasn't Do Nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Placid Casual Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Aye, it was A Message To You, Rudy. I asked the same question the other day. Terry Hall didnae look happy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWL Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 Thought that, thought it was a nice touch at the time. Was too far back to see Terry Halls coupon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Placid Casual Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I'm sure it was Lynval Golding that said it though. Cracking night it was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighusref Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Aye, it was A Message To You, Rudy. I asked the same question the other day. Terry Hall didnae look happy... Didn't Terry dedicate the following song to him? Or at least dedicate Rudy to Dammers AFTER it was finished? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Placid Casual Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Sorry, didn't catch what was said when the song finished. It's a real shame that Jerry Dammers appears to have been frozen out - read an interview with him recently and the whole thing has really got to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanB Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Didn't Terry dedicate the following song to him? Or at least dedicate Rudy to Dammers AFTER it was finished? Terry said something along the lines of "I'd like to dedicate the next song to someone I wish was on stage with us tonight - Eric Cantona" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucky Thompson Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Sorry, didn't catch what was said when the song finished. It's a real shame that Jerry Dammers appears to have been frozen out - read an interview with him recently and the whole thing has really got to him I feel sorry for him too. The interview was about a year ago.http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/dec/11/jerry-dammers-specials-rebuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber Harris' Best Mate Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 Can anyone help with this one. Is my mind playing tricks or did Neville Staples dedicate A Message To You, Rudy to Jerry Dammers or was it Do Nothing. to be honest, I thought he was dedicating the song to Jeffrey Dahmer's - I thought that was a bit sick at the time right enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr X Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I feel sorry for him too. The interview was about a year ago.http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/dec/11/jerry-dammers-specials-rebuff The other Specials give their side of the story here; http://www.mojo4music.com/blog/specials_contents.shtml Shame Dammers wasn't there, was still a brilliant gig though.
