heylo i seem to have become a lurker. i didnt use to be but its just less pressure this way. but, to keep up my twice-yearly pattern, here i am again. tv in the uk is great this weekend. Blade and (the funny bits of) Austin Powers last night, the Thomas Crown Affair right now, the Usual Suspects tonight. its meant that i havent really left the house. so, thankyou tv-networks for saving me money in the long-run. the soundtrack for the thomas crown affair is very belle and sebby actually. i could easily imagine them covering a couple of the songs ive heard so far. just like the Graduate. which makes me think..... if b+s were around 35 years ago, would they have been chart-toppers? theyd definitely be mainstream, wouldnt they? much-delayed reference but im sorry i didnt make it to the manchester picnic. my house is probably closer than anyone else's (especially ken's) to the picnicking place but i didnt hear about it until it was finishing :o( i promise if someone organises another, i shall attend (*hinthint*) a couple of music-related things.... the hefner album is good. maybe cheesy, but good. i mean, its not exactly baxendale, is it? :o) the sodastream album is grate! cant wait for their european tour. someone else (stankin, i think) said it but if they are playing even *remotely* near you, make the effort. and finally, ive borrowed the strokes album (finally) and i agree that some of their stuff is grate. but they could have compacted it all into an EP, couldnt they? or would that have just led to *even more* hype in the end? all hype, no brains... chris ps. im watching two squirrels fighting over territory. fun! ------------------------------------------ http://www.lostharbour.org ------------------------------------------ _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
