The Mission UK

Welcome to the band that opened my views on music; music not only as something to sound off to but as something to sit back and grin with the idea in mind that Wayne wouldn't dare say that outside the confines of enebriation. I suppose if you're anything like I was, you mostly likely haven't heard of The Mission; well, ignorance could be bliss but if that were the case then how would it explain the way I feel so completely and utterly in heaven when I listen to it?

The only way I could explain the Mission is that one can either listen to it and be swept away, or laugh it off as some poncey freaks falling over each other in horribly tacky clothing and horrendous hairstyles. Or perhaps the real crux of the matter happens when you get the best of both worlds. If nothing can beat lying down with a good bottle of Black Tower and listening to Wayne do his thing [elaboration on this would not be done justice in words], then perhaps the idea of The Mission creating and performing it all does.

Anyway, I must have been struck with the good fortune that could only arise from some good deed I did once, [although I've never been able to quite figure out quite what], as I was, rather unexpectedly, introduced to this motley crew of hair spray by someone dear to me. And if anything comes out of this besides the blessed Mission, then I think it is the thought that such events happen unexpected and infrequent, and as a result, should not be taken lightly. Anyway, I hope if you decide to ever listen to The Mission, the same happens to you.

If you're interested in checking out some stuff on The Mission, I have several images below of the band and, respectively, the band members. I'm working on getting more stuff up like bios, lyrics, etc, but it'll be over a long period of time. Anyway, till then, hope you like what I've got so far.
