It has yet to be confirmed to me that in this day and age, professional footballers with testicles are in the majority.

I'd like to see that film (like a series of linked videos covering his songs in English by other artists) "Jacques Brel is alive and well and living in Paris" again one day. Just caught it on TV ages ago and it left an impression. Also need to thank you for the recommendation on

Muse Interview

Hope all is well at home Easy going start for me too, though I seem to remember them getting some stick here. Followed by

That makes me think the answer is Cher (Sonny being the goofball sidekick), but that can't be right? Also: my answer: Port Sunlight Horticultural Society - their annual dance saw the first performance of the Fab 4 with Ringo having replaced Pete Best. 18th August 1962. http://magicalbeatletours.com/tour_wirral.htm#hulme

Puts Rooney in the shade - Boris Johnson tackles a German For the uninitiated, Boris Johnson is a Tory MP, a bit of a clown - think Monty Python upper class twit of the year competition - although the fact that he seems genuine, has little time for spin, and actually answers questions with wit and good humour wins him some points with me. He is playing in a charity celebrity/ex-footballers 'Legends' match just before the world cup. Seems like he went to a rugby school. Plus, he never even got a yellow card.

Why has the Port Sunlight Horticultural Society gone down in musical history?

What about Gogol Bordello? I have not heard their stuff, but have read some interviews and they seem to put on a great show? I had said how the Beirut record did not sound authentic to me. Gogol Bordello may be nearer the mark?

Third Stone From the Sun by Jimi Hendrix on the Are You Experienced LP. There are some incoherent 'vocals' at the beginning. If you could play it at 78rpm you would hear Hendrix and Chas Chandler having a short conversation as alien(s) in a spaceship approaching Earth - with phrases something like "calling star ship", etc.

Ronaldo gave Rooney a subtle head butt (i.e. not a real head butt, but enough for an Italian to start rolling on the ground) and some verbals just before the kickoff. Rooney is still an idiot and should know better. Looks like Ronaldo is off to Madrid. I think Rooney would land one on him back at Man Utd. My boss has now taken the England flag down hanging over his desk. I have been remarkably restrained this morning!

Game on! Both teams seem up for it - ref will have to do well to stay in control.

Here's one I heard on a radio equivalent of Nevermind the Buzzcocks the other night:- Chas and Dave appear on Eminem's (first) hit "My Name Is" - since they were session musicians in the 70s playing on the Labi Siffre track that is sampled. Any more for any more?

"treated to and hour and a half" I will not 'ave typos in this jungle, lovely boy!

Thanks for the reports.

"I moved away from Wales as a young man, but I have been drifting back over the years. It's quite horrible sometimes, the intangible sense of something calling you, and not knowing what it is." I hear you brother!

Heard some in the car on the radio at the weekend. Almost had to pull over. Seering! Do you like salt and pepper on your hat

Don't always like them, but always respect the Manics. Plus they're part of the Taffia of course.

Brimful of Asha - Cornershop "Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow" (From the Fatboy Slim Greatest Hits thing. Bought for the above and the Groove Armada remix and 'Demons' mainly)

An African or European swallow?

So what you're saying is, you missed me

Was in Cardiff last weekend. Was not at this show. While I was there I found out that the filmed meeting of BD and Johnny Cash where Bob Dylan sings I Still Miss Someone at a piano occurred backstage at the Capitol Theatre, Cardiff. Now demolished. 1. Maggie's Farm 2. She Belongs To Me 3. Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum 4. Positively 4th Street 5. Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again 6. Love Sick 7. Watching The River Flow 8. Ballad Of A Thin Man 9. Absolutely Sweet Marie 10. Girl Of The North Country 11. Cold Irons Bound 12. Don't Think Twice, It's All Right 13.

Looks that way Edit: they are threatening from time to time, but Brazil are cutting their offside trap defence to ribbons.

Thanks to the soundtracks thread ...

Looks like I can get to hear more stuff for free on my doorstep at work, though there's only James Brown and Randy Newman that I would be interested in. Think I'll wander over lunchtime in case there's a sound check too. http://www.towermusicfestival.co.uk/festiv...tting/index.htm
