Hi Kieran, I enjoyed reading the first few hundred words of your post but then got bogged down by all the words being so packed together. Sorry to be a pain, but any chance of paragraphs? I've been wanting to ask everyone this for ages. Snr Chu writes in paras and looks how popular he is. It's because everyone makes it to the end of his posts. Anyway, but just back from seeing The Vines at Dingwalls and they were spectacular. Really really really really really really really really really amazing. "Country Yard" was one of those moments when you just feel envigorated by music, like there's extra oxygen being pumped into your bloodstream with every chord change. I couldn't yell and clap enough when it ended. For those who've only heard the Supergrass-ish single, the other stuff is much much better: Big Star, Brian Wilson, Nirvana, Plush, etc, etc. They're playing tomorrow at ULU and I'm hoping against hope (always a bad bet, but never mind) that I can get a ticket. Can't wait for Glastonbury. Rod Stewart's meant to playing...
