  1. Ahh thanks for the explanation. For those about to rant, I salute you.
  2. Sorry to lower the tone so early in the thread, but here's a downright bizarre video of Alanis Morissette pissing into two cups. And she seemed such a nice girl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8eZ95ah8Ko
  3. Pennyroyal Tea - Nirvana
  4. I swear on my life Brenda. Never done it. My friend doesn?t believe me. When I think of all the fantastical lies I could tell, to claim never to have burped is so harmless. And not to be believed. I?m wounded.
  5. Lady Marmalade - Patti LaBelle
  6. Burped. Never have. I shared this with a friend once. She didn't believe me. I mean, what a strange lie to tell. Why would I?
  7. Boom-Bang-a-Bang - Lulu
  8. Ballad of Lucy Jordan - Marianne Faithfull

    Great Gigs

    Spiritualized at the Festival Hall in October and selling out really really fast. Buy direct (no booking fees). www.southbankcentre.co.uk Best to get box seats or side stall seats rather than rear stalls or balcony, which are a long way from the stage.
  10. Pretty Baby - Blondie
  11. Oh You Pretty Things - David Bowie
  12. Oh Vienna - means nothing to me WHEREAS 'Shutuppa your Face' by Joe Dolce is a masterpiece. I'm having it played at my funeral. You can all come.
  13. Yes but the phone went and somebody wanted me to do something. The bastards I work for sometimes expect me to do something other than just cash the cheque. It's unreasonable I know but it's my burden.
  14. Nuffink Else Matters - Metallica
  15. Phedre at the National Theatre with Helen Mirren. Tickets available now but it will sell out so if you want to go don't put off booking. www.nationaltheatre.org.uk
  16. I have a long memory. I actually remember the days when there was no corporate sponsorship for music (yes, I'm that old). The first band that I followed that went out and got sponsorship was The Stones (wouldn't you know it would be the Stones to go after the money). Volkswagen. It felt really weired at the time, which probably says something about how old I am, but we?re not going to talk about that right now. NO, WE ARE NOT. Someone asked Bono if he would ever consider getting sponsorship for U2. He replied, and I'm slightly paraphrasing, "it's a sad day when rock n'roll needs to bend over and take it up the arse from a corporate". Anyway, U2's impending tour is being brought to us by Blackberry. How very thoughtful of them. Times have changed of course but still. U2's official concert packages went on sale this morning. This means you get dinner, gig, drinks. Wembley comes in at ?495 a pop. Just so long as you're looking out for the fans Bono, that's the main thing. All this and I still can't bring myself to hate him. So I guess I'm off topic and await chastisement from Brendan/Snorky (has anyone ever seen them in the same room?). On the subject of guys who need a reality check, let's not forget that Springsteen got himself an exclusive Wallmart deal last year. He's since apologised for it (after much protest from his fans and silence on his part). Really and truly, do these guys never look in the mirror and say to themselves "I'm as rich as God, there's just no need".
  17. Man on the Moon - REM
  18. Jolene Jolene Jolene Joleeeen
  19. The Fly - U2
  20. success success success success does it matter?
  21. Brendan I confess I didn't even look at the lyric for this. It was just Foo Fighters - "think spanners". Anyway, I'm thinking. Give me a moment. PX
  22. Monkey Wrench
  23. It is of course Brenda
  24. You're gonna be the one at Sainburys
