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!!

    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
