Yeah all manc-y


Someone down south hears more than two northern accents and next thing you know the whole station is rife with it



Tsk tsk atticus. Much to discuss 6 music about and you choose that.



(mark and lard should be back together tho )


Of the norvners, I'm a fan of the keaveney and the laverne

Because clearly northerners couldn't possibly know anything about anything could they?


My picks: Craig Charles Funk & Soul Show on Saturday night. Huey's brilliant show on a Sunday arvo. I have to say I find Lauren Laverne annoying but haven't worked out why. I'm pretty certain it's not her accent however.


10 years old this weekend,

but when does this happen exactly? In all my time listening to the station I've never hear anyone say "I know what I'm talking about as I'm a Norvenor". Or anything like it

I'm gonna side with Atticus at a general level (not Radio 6). Mancs banging on about their unique contribution to music


Stone Roses, one decent album. massively MASSIVELY, M A S S I V E L Y overated

Happy Mondays - joke band

New Order/Joy Divison - the latter (or earlier if you like, we're ok for one album too) New order, mmmm, in all honesty

Slaughter and the Dogs - I ask you

Oasis - if anyone thinks Oasis are better than Blur they need a fucking ear transplant

The Smiths - yes, fair enough




Edited 'cos i forgot Oasis

Sooo, Simply Red are argubaly the 2nd best band from Manchester


Scousers win THIS one hands down.

Rosie - on the whole, what's to disagree with?


I take issue with his ambivelance around New Order, but he gives props to Smiths and says Oasis/Stone Roses are overrated and Happy Mondays are a joke band


I can't see anything false or malicious in any of that (and I say that as someone who has all of the Stone Roses albums)

Ah, and all becomes clear.


Lets think, Manchester, bound to be some more pluses that the usual ones quoted, they gave us Elbow, first album was terrific and I've liked most of their output since, though still a bit confused as to how and when they had National Treasure status bestowed upon them.


Badly Drawn Boy, the Verve (ok, black mark there), I was rather partial to the Inspirals back in the day and quite liked their new stuff on Music 6 recently. A Guy Called Gerald, one of the better ones from that era/genre.


Ooh, George Formby!!

    • Another recommendation for Oddbods. As proof of our satisfaction we've asked them to return for some more jobs, which is sign we were happy with their work
    • Most of the groceries shops in Lordship Lane have a security presence…curious thing is I and another woman recently saw a shop lifter lift and not pay for a couple of packet of steaks, veg and bottle of wine..  Literally walked Pat the tills, one member of staff and security guard despite someone else going in front by a few people and mentioning person in question! I have to say, speechless and admired their bravado - I would not have the guts and knowing my luck, if I accidentally didn’t put something tru the till despite receipt would prob get stopped! Yes, worked with families, homeless and other people who were struggling for food so I do understand why they do it.. sad when you think about it, that in this day and age, all sorts of c people need assistance and help from community in general, food banks, olio etc….
    • Just not keen to have all these  things  in my body… having said  that, thinking about Covid again as need to come to London to two hospitals for poss overnight stays.
