    Great Gigs

    I've thought about just leaving after the support BUT what if they're "special guests" rather than support. Thinking about it, that's a more likely bet. I don't want to find myself heading south on the 37 bus whilst the band I actually want to see still has it's feet up backstage. Yes they are jumped up aren't they Keef. My shot is lousy though so throwing things isn't good advice. Sorry.

    GG dilemma! Have historically been indifferent to the Arctic Monkeys but they're playing Brixton this week and there's a strong rumour the support will be a new band - Them Crooked Vultures. I'm desperate to see TCVs. I loathe the term "supergroup" but I reckon this one will truly rock. What to do? If I go and it's just the Arctic Monkeys I?d rather not subject myself to Brixton Academy.
  6. Can't believe I'm posting on THIS thread. Did we win? It's not that I know/care anything about cricket it's just that I've got some Australian friends that I would like to kick whilst they're down. Please advise.
  7. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8FWnscrnb0 I can't get off the fence. Arctic Monkeys; over-rated or what?

  9. I love that song Hoochie - favourite line "Fu*k the stewards a trip to Lourdes wouldn't give the fekkers the power of sight" They don't write them like that any more. Ahhh. If I should fall from grace with God - The Pogues
  10. Nipple to the Bottle - Grace Jones

    Remix

    I like it
  12. I'm just back from seeing Streetcar Named Desire at the Donmar tonight and I must say that it does rightfully deserve all the praise that has been heaped upon it. It's made me sad though (of course). I've seen it so many times and I keep hoping that it will turn out differently - which is insane, but still. There's something coming up at the National Theatre which may be a winner for the autumn; a new Alan Bennett play called "The Habit of Art" which is about an imaginary meeting between W H Auden and Benjamin Britten. The two men are played by Michael Gambon and Alex Jennings and you can't really go wrong with them. It will sell out quickly, simply because it's an Alan Bennett play with an excellent cast. Public booking opens on 2nd September so get in quick. http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/51766/productions/the-habit-of-art.html And here's one for the tinies http://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/51824/productions/dr-seusssbr-the-cat-in-the-hat.html
  13. LA Woman - The Doors
  14. BBW - that's really unacceptable (and cowardly) for anyone to PM anyone a threat. Jah is right and you should report them. If it was me, I would cut and paste the messages onto the forum proper and make the comments public. I'm really sorry - you don't deserve that. I know you say that you're thick skinned but most people would be upset by that.
  15. Vacuous waste of bandwith
  16. There are some forumites whose posts I will never read because I don't like how they post. I will skip anyone who is regularly cruel, rude, aggressive, childish, makes personal attacks etc. I'm probably not alone in that. Conversely, there are some forumites whose threads I follow even though I don't agree with a word they write, but I find their arguments compelling. If you are going to be cruel or make personal attacks then you do need to accept that that there are forumites you will alienate in the process. Personally, I come on the forum for some light relief, not to be wound up, so I just automatically censor certain forumites by not reading their posts (or the pointless threads they start). I don't mind a good argument - let's face it they can be really amusing. For me, cruelty and rudeness cross a line - there's just no need.

    And the bad thing about PayPal is that they are bloodsucking bastards who I would rather not sign up with if there is an alternative http://www.paypalsucks.com/

    Have only just spotted the Donate page. I went there by accident. Now I feel guilty that I've had a free ride all these years! Is there any other way than Paybastard (Paypal)?
  19. The purse is reunited with its happy owner now and I'm overwriting my original post because it used her real name. px
  20. Brendan, like RosieH I'm intrigued by your posts on this thread. Are we really that ill manned as a nation? It's very sad if we are. Do you really think that we are worse/better than other countries? Don't you think though that a lot is to do with accepting personal responsibility for how we behave towards others?

  21. I know that lot - they film there about twice a month and it's full of trailers and food waggons. I have no idea what it's all about though - sorry.
  22. Honaloochie Boogie - MtH
  23. Midnight at the Oasis - Brand New Heavies
  24. Yes it's just past Croydon; keep going after Ikea and you're practically there.
  25. HOOCHIE - VERY URGENT - DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE MTH WARM-UP?
