I wouldn't call the Rat Pack cheesy either.

Anyone dissing Frank usually ended up swimming in concrete boots or being part of the foundations of a Las Vegas casino.

Still prefer Sid Vicious's version of My Way...

 

(Size 5 with a high heel for those concrete boots please Mr Black!)

At the present I am mostly listening tp...

Kings of Leon

The Darkness

Kyuss

Mondo Generator

Electric Six

&

Eighties b-line matchbox disaster

Listening to Magic & Medicine, the new CD by The Coral. Fan-bloody-tastic.

 

GG - Sid Vicious was a joke. Glen Matlock was by far the better bassist in The Pistols. I could play better than Sid a week after buying my first bass back in 89.

 

In the heady punk days of 77, Sid got battered and smacked on the head with a bottle by Paul Weller after slagging of The Jam. If Sid would've gone up against Bruce Foxton or Rick Buckler, he would've got wasted.

 

The only problem with the song My Way is that the song publishers opted for lyrics written by Paul Anka and not a young up and coming songwriter at the time called David Bowie.

Just been listening to - Evanescence

 

Very good.

Deano,

 

VERY good choices there mate

 

one question though, been tempted by the Electric 6 album, but worried that they might just be a 2 hit wonder, and the rest of the songs wont be nearly as good... do enlighten me

 

TOps

I can do better than that mate, if you have a mini-discman I'll send you a copy, so as you can make your own mind up

Just pm me your address.

 

Are you still on for Reading ?

very much still on for reading... can only make it to sat/sun... would love to go to the friday, but it doesn;t seem worth it for a couple of bands...

 

question is, are you still up for meeting up?

Yes mate, me and mazrah are going down on the thurssay night, i'll contact you that week about meeting

Your disc will be in the post in the next couple of days

Lately it's been Motorhead, Limp Bizkit and Greenday

Motorhead. Good call, I had to dig out my Ace of Spades CD and give it another listen.

 

Been listening to all things Ben Harper lately. I think it is because I have tickets to see he and Jack Johnson next week. BH is a GREAT live show.

 

Tool, Aenima.

Spoon, Vittario

The White Stripes, Elephant.

 

Anyone heard Maroon 5? I keep hearing their single on the radio and never catch the name but the song sounds pretty good. Any input?

Mostly listening to;

St Anger - Metallica (wonderful)

Permission to Land - The Darkness (inspired)

Audioslave - Audioslave (powerful)

For any fans of Metallica and classical music, check out Apocolyptica (no idea if I've spelled that right!)... I spent a hazy, hot hour in Hildesheim Flugplatz listening to them... they play nothing but Metallica covers on cello and violin! Best served with vast quantities of Tequila Sunrise!

Listening to the Matrix Reloaded Soundtrack right now. Before that it was Linkin Park's Meteora.

Listening to a bit of The Small Faces.

Bought Magic and medicine by the Coral on Saturday and it's been playing non stop since.

OK:) I have a few I've been listening to:

 

Electric 6 - Fire

The Coral - The Magic and the Medicine

The Thrills - So Much for the city

The Darkness - Permission to Land (still listening to this baby a lot)

Metallica - Master of Puppets

Just incase anyones interested you can get tickets to see The Coral over at ticketmaster.co.uk as there doing a U.K. tour at the mo.

I seem to remember Caller from the black saying he'd like to catch them so I just thought it was worth a mention as a few people seem to like them.

hey I picked up some tickets for my good lady and me last night and I know for sure Mr Black will be going... not in London like myself, but in good old Manc.

 

Bring it on... speaking of gigs, did anyone mention it's the Reading Festival this weekend??? I think they might have!

 

TOps

Me and Mazrah are off to Reading tonight

We have also just got tickets to see Hundred Reasons at the ULU and the Darkness at Brixton Academy..anyway back to the thread..

We've been spinning..

the Music the music

Hell is for heroes neon handshake

and were still playing the Darkness & Kings of Leon

I've been on a post-M'era Luna thing... all my favourite bands that played there

 

Neuroticfish

Mesh

Apoptygma Berzerk

Placebo (not my usual thang, but they were damn good live!)

Currently listening to the World's greatest (and laziest) band - The Stone Roses.

Tops, we are going on the friday night sorry I didn,t contact you at Reading but my mobile's battery decided to give up the ghost.

BTW, GG placebo were very good at Reading

Deano that's fine it was amazing though currently dying, but at least I feel clean again!
