Hellooooooo,
First a massive thanks for the replies about Edinburgh venues (I shall mail you
back nearer my moving North date which should be about the beginning of
October). Edinburgh is sounding better by the minute although I sure will miss
London (sob).
Has anyone heard the Massive attack album, I never really liked them but I
bought "teardrop" and was kinda wondering what the rest of the stuff's
like?!?!?!?
Had a majorly depressing weekend (involving a broken leg and several cuts from
a broken wine glass, fortunately not all at the same time) and the cloud is
still looming so I'd love some pick-me-up messages of joy and happiness if it
still exists!
love
Rob

Rialto - sorry but to me they sound like a bunch of art students but with Nick
Berry singing.
And i might give the Cambridge Ball a miss - i may opt to shoots some working
class people or kill some foxes instead. Maybe not.....
But Prolapse, now theres a band......

You know the funniest thing about him? One of the other high-profile
"lenny-conquests" was of course Vanessa Paradis. On her album of a
few years back, there's a touching tribute to him that goes something
like "Ooh Lenny Lenny he's so fine / Yeah he's the best I've ever had"
ad nauseam. Funny enough in itself, but slide-splitting when you
check the liner notes to find it was co-written by.....Lenny Kravitz.
What a man!

P.S. Under the guidance of a sypathetic yogi, I have trained my heart

hullo
i didn't want to leave the list without my presence for too long, for fear
it would fall apart. or that i would be forgotten. ok, so really i'm just
bored so i want to talk shit for a bit. as as far as i can tell, there is
*no* belle and sebastian news even though they've got a new album coming
out august? maybe? and they should be playing some shows in the fall. i
will be at this new york show, with god as my witness. i couldn't get into
the last one as it was sold out and i didn't know anyone at the time and
*sniffle*.... oh, that's all too sad. so i won't go there. so anyway,
this time there are no excuses or anything, i *must* go. i have this fear
that if i don't get to see them, they'll break up or fall off a cliff (i
think there are a lot of cliffs in glasgow) or somehow plunge to their
fiery graves, and that would really suck. jeepster, i think you should
consider putting 24 hr security around the band as i'm beginning to worry
now.
ok, on to more coherent news, i'm going to be in barcelona for a day? hour?
minute? in about 10 days. is there anywhere i should go for music or
stuff? any places i *must* visit? any one on the list from barcelona? i
think that would be a better question.
i don't suppose anyone is coming to moscow anytime soon? i didn't think
so. but oh well. i saw an arab strap video on tv the other day and it was
pretty good. i'd be interested in hearing more at least. didn't someone
say that they're on matador now? matador is just snatching up all those
scottish bands now. i think it's a bandwagon thing.
ok, that's enough disjointed rambling for now. toodles.

Does anyone really believe that there are more decent gigs in London than
in the rest of the country?
I thought that myth had gone out of the window years ago.
Helen Shapiro and Freddie and the Dreamers have both played in Basingstoke
already this year - so where does that leave your argument, eh?

Ummm, actually I kinda thought that Sarah's mail was more about in-jokes and
private references in messages to the list, which surely we're all guilty
of, not just those of us who live in the evil metropolis. Whatever, mea
culpa. I'm very very sorry, and will move back to Stevenage at the earliest
opportunity.

You'll be talking about the real stuff then ?
Served about 12 degrees above room temperature from a bottle previously used for Homebase white spirits.
Anyone who drinks that brain-rot deserves a lifetime of bowel problems. I was referring more to the brand name crap.
Guiness ?? I love Guiness, but they never give you a knife and fork to eat it with.

Good pub game = buy a single shot of navy rum = pour single shot of navy rum into mouth in one go = swill around mouth a bit and keep in mouth for at least 2 minutes (obviously this can be extended with experience) = if you spit, you buy a round...simple but expensive.

Oh dear. There's about 20 of us in my office and I'm one of three blokes. The women have decided they want a swear/football fine box over the next month. Arsebuggerbollocks, we're not having any of it. We countered that with a fine box for everytime they mentioned soap operas, cuddly cute little shitbag kids, and those boys talking about getting erections in the Human Body on Beeb1 last week.

Presumably you only saw about 4 minutes of the game due to the advertisement breaks every time the ball went out of play.

Especially seeing as 2 million of those are permenantly pissed, another 2 million haven't been seen for four years..shit yeah Scotland are not so much bollocks as Les ballons du chien.

What a start to the day ! Imagine my surprise when I was woken up this
morning by a phone call from a nice man who told me that I'd won tickets
to see Van Morrison and Bob Dylan in Sheffield, just by virtue of having
bought some Cds in his shop. I can't wait, although I'm sure I won't know
any of the songs, as I haven't got anything either of them has recorded
after about 1980.
If any of you want to share my lucky streak I suggest you put some
money on Italy winning the World Cup. Their odds should have improved
since their undistinguished showing against Chile and I "know" they're
gonna win it.

God, I find the Kravitz-monster irksome. He's an eyesore, makes some of
the most horrible music ever perpetrated and has been "intimate" with
several women I find terribly attractive - Kylie, Lisa Bonet and now the
divine Miss Imbruglia. If he ever gets off with Lynda Bellingham I'll be well
pissed off.
Right, I'll leave you now.
Cheers ! Adam.

Hello everyone,
Only weeks after having a go at everyone going on and on about children's TV, I have to sheepishly apologise
for grumbling as it seems that I am about to be working in the aforementioned industry. I got a job! Wooo! They
haven't given me anything to sign yet, but it looks pretty much in the bag - in fact, as I write, I've just got
a phone call with the salary package - not bad...! It does mean, though, that for my 4 more days of freedomI'm
going to have to watch absolutely bucketloads of kids TV, so please forgive any belated critiques on Fireman
Sam and chums...
How do all you scots (and wannabes) feel about England's victory today? Obviously, as long as they don't beat
Italy at any stage, I'm pretty delighted, but Garry has told me much about the ceaseless and absolute loathing
for Engerland that lurks in the genes of every true celt, so I wondered if you're all cursing into your irn
bru? I do like Trousers' idea, though, and I could well be up for that, tube strike permitting. I'm supposed to
be going on a picnic tomorrow with my best mate's girlfriend (no scandal, unfortunately - we're just both
unemployed while he markets a certain Well-Known Brand of Moisturiser and has two secretaries), but if the
weather today's anything to go by, I think I'll be coming along to Trousers' bash - details still to come?
Kevin Keegan - what a motherfucker. Sorry.
Bye,
Mark x

i have seen the sound of music, but not the ending... my friend alyssa (whose
mother followed me today and assaulted me in a restaurant, incidentally) said
something about a nun taking the spark plugs out af a nazi's car, although
there are no nazis up to the point i have seen... i do own the soundtrack and
have had to sing the lonely goatherd song for an audience before.
my 2 cents...
