Sly and Robbie's Blackwood Dub is quality. You heard it, Chez?

I'm 38. There were loads of people there on E who were too old to be on E, basically. I wasn't one of them btw

That's Sarah Silverman isn't it?

He did, aye. My mate absolutely loves them so I've tagged along a few times. Actually, I thought Orbital were really good last Wednesday at the Academy. I was one of the younger ones there as well. Last gig before that was System7 at a festival in North Yorks. They were fucking class. Ade Edmondson and the Bad Shepherds were on before them. They weren't so good.

I've seen Hawkwind 3 times. The first two times they were class. Not so good the last time. Again, nothing to do with the drugs.

I think it was the last of theirs that I bought, but aye, it's quality. I really like Achtung! Baby too. I think they're shit now like.

I was at that gig. My mate was into them. I hadn't really heard of them. Before or since. And I just remembered, Smashing Pumpkins were class at the Mayfair. Siamese Dream tour.

Btw, if anyone gets that I can only apologise.

It's where you bury the dead isn't it?

I remember seeing U2 when Bono was into wearing Lynne's Mam's cataract glasses and they were class. Roundhay Park. It was 14th August 1993 because it was the same day Newcastle played Spurs at home in the Premier League (our first ever PL match).

Who's record collection would you rather listen to? CT's or Toonpack's?

Ken, are you alright?

Struggled with this a bit as I more or less stopped buying contemporary music (relatively at least): Train of Thought - Reflection Eternal Loudboxer - Speedy J Illinoise - Sufjan Stevens The Issness and the Otherness - Amorphous Androgynous The Campfire Headphase - Boards of Canada Grinning Cat - Susumu Yokota As Heard on Radio Soulwax Pt. 2 - 2many DJs Discovery - Daft Punk Tourist - St Germain Melody AM - Royksopp

Me too.

Okey dokie.

Class album / EP either way

It'll be freezing in the Gallowgate tonight.

Good.

I WAS JOKING LOL

You can have both, Ken. It's Xmas.

Just started snowing in Gateshead.

I wish it was.

Wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be over shit she got from her bosses like.
