  1. new boy burn out if you've ever seen All Quiet On The Western Front, it's the noobs that get wasted
  2. excuse my ignorance, but why would you play drums with a right set up if you're a lefty? genuine question, I've a full set up in the other room and I can't see why it can't be handed if it makes any difference
  3. fair play, that's a bit of a rock / pop high point (no pun intended) love it
  4. Thinking back, my first album was Eddie Cochran, played repeatedly until I was told to turn the bloody thing off. I'll bow to Xann on his music knowledge, but the vaaast majority of people wouldn't know anything about Ringo's drumming ability, they just repeat what they've heard, that he wasn't very good. If you can hear him being the weakest in the band, you've got a good ear (except for, I think it's 'Let it Be' where he and / or the mix really is spaz).
  5. no, its a silly trick, Australia was still the largest (apologies, I lost a quiz on this once and it just eats me every day) I know I know! it's a poor question poorly defined and ignores indigenous people's etc etc., and I lost out on it against a knob that genuienely thought winning a quiz at a parent teacher evening proved his Alpha status - which it did, but in a knob way
  6. What was the largest isand on earth before Australia was discovered?
  7. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that, personally I quite like the Beatles, but the changes were coming with or without them: 1959 Tamla Records formed in Detroit 1959 Buddy Holly, Ritchie Vallens and JP Richardson die in a plane crash 1959 Miles Davies, Kind of Blue 1959 Bo Diddley! 1959 Bill Haley and the Comets leave Decca after five years of hits 1959 Roy Orbison signs a record deal 1959 The Supremes are formed 1959 Jimi HENDRIX buys an electric guitar 1959 Albums released by Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Charlie Mingus, Miles Davies, Chuck Berry, Howlin’ Wolf, Ray Charles, Duane Eddy 1959 ‘Payola’ scandal 1959 Ben E King joins the Drifters 1960 Eddie Cochran dies 1960 Lionel Bart’s ‘Oliver’ 1960 Neil Young starts a band 1960 Ritchie Blackmore starts a band 1960 Chubby Checker does the Twist 1961 Motown Records sign the Supremes 1961 The Miracles make Motown’s first million selling record 1961 Billboard splits the charts into categories so it isn’t just a list of rock n roll hits 1961 Ike & Tina Turner headline a California gig with the Beach Boys as support June 1962 The Beatles release their first single The Beatles are / were fantastic. They are proof that not all people on drugs are boring. They were never really bigger than Jesus, they just have better PR.

  9. Have we reached a consnsus that our streets weren't designed for a mass commute using multiple transport systems from shoes to bendy buses and that nobheads can be found using every mode of transport? I'd happily use a bike except for the bit where I have to filter off the M4 on to the south bound M25 - anything less than a tank there is just asking for trouble due to fucktards, lost fucktards, timid fucktards and immortal boy racer van driving fucktards and Audi's.
  10. what if you knew that spider was a lady spider and was going to give birth to spider Hitler?
  11. should I jump out of the wardrobe and surprise him now, he said
  12. taste is a funny thing luckily, I like mine
  13. St George's Church, Portland. Well, a couple of gravestones therein anyway. Spot the devil tailed angel yet?
  14. Tracy Emin? each to their own, I went to her White Cube show 3 or 4 years ago and thought it was fine, not life changing, not the best thing I'd seen, but not a waste of an hour either
  15. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcgeJ3_E_dc in my mind, this is how I move down the street **** yeah
  16. fine sentiment, well done pacbuddies another thing to do, in the longer term, is to direct debit a regular small amount, that way the organisations within DEC can plan ahead and stock for the next inevitable emergency
