  1. I'm willing if you are. Messageboard jokes are like farts: generally you don't like anyone else's, but you quite like your own.
  2. Nice reply - you gave the sort of perspective I was wondering about (that which I can only supply for the UK in the late 70s/early 80s).
  3. One day we'll find a niche of musical knowledge where you're found wanting, but I think that day is some way off
  4. Personally, I was too old for it to appeal to a rebelious streak, and never felt 'connected' to that sort of West Coast psyche. It was also at a time when I was slogging my guts out for a few years (i.e. the opposite of being a slacker) and not listening to much music, so the whole grunge movement sort of passed me by. Thus I was and am pretty much indifferent - like the raw power of some of the tracks, but never listen to it (I only ever had a cassette taped copy that's long gone now). So, what does it mean to some of you now? Is their legacy really the likes of Blink-182? Lights blue touc
  5. I have no particular interest in the new choral piece, but I did laugh at the
  6. Half an hour cut down version of the DVD. Don't know what showing that now means - maybe it won't get a proper release over here. Audio Abyss/Insightful banter Sunken Treasure Shot in the Arm One By One (I know what 7 Down is Jeff if you're still stuck) War On War Acuff Rose California Stars So, I suppose they took as much of the performances that they could squeeze into half an hour. No idea if there are any JT interviews etc on the actual DVD - no conversation in this apart from the banter. War on War was fun, but Nels' lap guitar work I found a bit grating (which I never thoug
  7. Forgot to say: I am a big fan of the Radio 4 shipping forecast though (original version). http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/coast/shipping/index.shtml There's a link to listen to it on that page.
  8. I have seen him once before many many moons ago. You did come remarkably close to an unannounced knock on the door and having to make space for someone on the couch (feet overhanging no doubt) for 4 nights. I'm sure she's a very nice lady, but I only have eyes for Mr Richman. Now I have to go and practise my hip swiveling and manic grinning. If you get a chance to have a word - (1) Put in a request for 'Vincent Van Gogh' (2) There's a spare room here if he's travelling in typical JoJo light and low-key mode. He would have to sing for his supper of course. I can do the backing for 'The
  9. My wife works looking out over the park. She has been known to collect small frogs there - don't ask
  10. Bugger, looks like I need to cancel my order before it's too late:-
  11. Still can never decide if I like it or it is just pretentious
  12. Me no like (apart from about half of Sea Change), but here you go:-
  13. Jonathan Richman European Tour Dates - October 2006 Known dates for the coming tour... SCOTLAND Thursday, 12th October
  14. Cardiff boy. My sister's best friend was once in hospital next to his mum. He came to visit, like the well brought up lad he is. His band was always spot on anyway - Dave Edmunds production etc. Also who knew? The secret behind the green door:- So, Shakin' Stevens - almost as legendary as Peter Singh, The Rocking Sikh http://www.aardvarkcymru.co.uk/singh.htm
  15. She's a real trooper. It's a classic. Jack White is to be commended.
  16. All things in moderation. As long as there's not too many threads, especially in the other more serious forum areas, which can put off new Wilco fans who aren't here for the funny, and that wouldn't be a good thing. Here it's plain Bedlam amongst consenting adults, as far as I'm concerned - though personally I don't get into attacking individuals much - just can't be arsed. Just ignoring obvious attention seekers works best it seems to me.
  17. Its Marine Boy, Brave and Free! Fighting evil 'neath the sea. He is a boy, a very special boy Powered by Propeller Shoes, flying Sub Ahoy! Whooshing through the water on a friendly dolphin's back Racing to the rescue of victims of attack. In a flash, he'll foil the foe With a quick boomarang throw!
