They just mentioned the distillers on the radio and reminded me how much I like this song


The Distillers - City of Angels


That should noisy up an otherwise quiet and overcast Wednesday afternoon for you.


Apparently the singer is a Kiwi or Australian or something like that.

I used to listen to this song on my walkman and sing it out loud when I was a kid in the park just up from my house in Empire Bay.. I particularly loved the line about the vegemite sandwich..I recently introduced Mrs Strawbs (Jaws) to it and she thought it was quite funny..



sorry no song to contribute as I am blocked to all sites at work.. :(

I bought the excellent Love Story on DVD at the weekend, and would highly recommend it to anybody with an interest in the band, or the sixties LA scene in general.. Interviews with pretty much the whole band, and lots of light shed on how it all went wrong after the sheer genius of Forever Changes.

    • He wasn't great when interviewed on Channel 4 News this evening either, but he may get some respite tomorrow with the breaking Nandy story.
    • I was referring more to his performance at PMQs yesterday. It was quite a riot! Almost topped Mastermind  
    • Agreed, he should not be held accountable over the mess up over release of prisoners. On the other hand he did himself no favours with his gaffes on the BBC Master Mind programme where he passed on five questions. Where he did answer, here are some of his responses.... When asked who succeeded Henry VIII, Lammy incorrectly answered “Henry VII,” When asked which French scientist won Nobel prizes for both physics and chemistry?” Lammy responded with “Antoinette” When asked which fortress was built to defend Paris and later used as a prison, he answered “Versailles". When asked which variety of blue English cheese is often taken with port, he answered "Leicester" If nothing else he was entertaining.
    • Why do you think he should be toast? All these problems with the prison service apparently go way back, long before Labour took over.
