    Not going to comment on the order, but I'm pretty sure you've missed bböp off the list

    Thank you kind sir. Will listen on the morrow!

    Don't want to counter what you say per se as an argument, but I would add that (1) I have family priorities as far as money goes too, and I would rather spread what I spend on music around more artists rather than buy deluxe bundles from fewer. (2) In my (long) experience hearing music is often best when you know NOTHING about the artist. Unknown Stax/soul artists on a tinny (yes tinny not tiny) transistor radio, new punk rock singles exploding out of nowhere ... etc. I vote for imagination over information every time.
  4. Albert Tatlock
    Yup - all valid points. When I said 'just the music' I meant a hard copy of some kind rather than digital - old enough to be stuck in my ways. Just grates with me and always will.

    Personally I am only interested in the music not all the merchandising fluff that makes up packages around it, and I resent having to double up on purchases just to get odd tracks. I thought that dBpm might make a break and play it straight down the line, but looks like they're up to the usual record company games. That said, purchases in the past have allowed access to download extra content later, so hopefully the same might apply here (not sure what happened with W(TA) since I sort of ignored most of that).

    Sir Toby to you I was 12 in '74, but 4 years later the Top Rank was the place to get in to for some underage drinking/clubbing etc.

    Good God, that's a blast from the past. To answer the question - a big fat zero. Just changed jobs - budget been on hold.

    Nappy thrash Pater petra (going back to linguistic roots and with a nice anagramatic ring about it)

    1. Saw the Man in the Sand film on BBC2 - having an interest in Woody/roots country/Americana (for want of a better description) and also great respect for Billy Bragg. Then there was this band producing some fantastic melodies. So it was Mermaid Avenue. Got Being There soon after but it just didn't click and in fact I gave it away. Had to buy it again later once I had come to my senses :-) 2. 2004 London Astoria on the AGIB tour. A few weeks earlier found VC and asked if Wilco were worth seeing live, since on the I Am Trying DVD (which I had got by then along with YHF & ST and loved the

    You should not start counting from zero - the default premise is that bböp will be there

    P.S. Top Tip: The air guitar playing involves less post-solo laundry duties if you do it before the plunger is put to work.
  12. Albert Tatlock
    I really, really could use a Wilco plunger. For all those who want to combine air guitar with household chores. Win - win!

    Also, Lost was filmed in Hawaii, Dr Who is based in Cardiff. The weather is not so reliable for filming year round (and serious note - it is the major, major production for BBC Wales stretching their resources)
  14. Albert Tatlock
    Ta very much!

    So, next headlining London show is on the Thursday before the Friday and Saturday Wilco double header. JT and co may need to up their game to avoid an anti-climax

    ... like this one ...
  18. Albert Tatlock
    Most exciting thing I've seen in a long time ... Maybe since Strummer and Jones were at it ... Just click on anything by then in Youtube after that.

    If you really mean 'day' then I think you will be on your own. For all the shows in the UK I've ever attended I've been more than satisfied with an hour and a half to 2 hours before opening up time (and have been at the front then) - though being dead front is not so attractive to me now - a polite three or four rows back will do nicely. There is one man who will have all the answers though Bbop, where are you ...

    Yes, feels like a lot of holes in this story, but it was so choc-ful of little gems (the Victorian sword-weilding lesbians and the lactating egg man) that I was content with letting it all wash over me. Not to mention the fact that I could hardly reconcile what I was seeing with the cardboard props and silly rubber mask Dr Who budgets of old. Tremendous stuff.

    Any suggestions for October 26th? It's a Wednesday, so can't be reserved for Jools Holland or something. Very odd only a few days in to have a night off.

    Born and bred but living in London now :-( Just want to see them in my home town one day. Don't know anything specific about the Colston Hall, but I would generally say that GA = standing area.
  25. Albert Tatlock
    Well, that's a 68 quid bet on the next album being a corker done. Come on lads!
