    You only have to look at the position of Travis, Wet Wet Wet and the Bay City Rollers to discard that list!

    183057[/snapback]

     

    Quite.

     

    Another great list btw.

     

    Have a good time - will do you some good :blush:

  2. Oh aye, he's got to grasp his chance this season. He's what? 24/25 years old.

    183055[/snapback]

     

    I may bet on him being in the top 4 english scorers this season. Rooney, Bent, Roberts etc will get around 15 goals. I thnk Shola can do that this season as at least this season the whole team wont be pandering to shearers weakness.

     

    I like to take the piss out of him but the amount of starts he has had in his preferred position are not that great. He also made relatively a lot of starts 4 or 5 seasons ago where 1 in 2 figures would have been unfair in tems of expectations.

     

    He has to improve but i have confidence thats whats about to happen. He definitely has been poor in the past but that had a lot to do with circumstance, confidence and fitness. The latter may be the only thing that holds him back a bit.

     

    Good luck is my message as we are with him for foreseeable.

  3. to yank this back on track...

     

    I've got the original 12" single of psycho killer, bought it in the market in durham in 1985, it is so rare that it's buy now for £5.99 (£1.75p&p) on ebay.  Would consider swap for rabbit hutch ono

    Couldnt stretch to a rabbit hutch but would happily part with the small kennel my dead dog used to live in.

     

    :blush:

  4. a girl i know did a blue poo once after drinking too much blue caraco

    182670[/snapback]

    I once thought I'd need a trip to casualty until I realised I'd eaten a lot of beetroot.

    182721[/snapback]

     

    :blush: How much beetroot are we talking about? Curiouser and curiouser.

    182729[/snapback]

     

    Tbh a trip to casualty because of a beetroot is not something i would talk about in public. :blush:

  5. Suspiria's an interesting film, too.

    182685[/snapback]

    It also features but by a different name on Colin Dale's Outer Limits, mebbies the best techno studio mix in world ever.

    182692[/snapback]

     

    Just looked it up.....

     

    Boo Williams - always class and Cybotron's Clear - Detroit classic.

     

    I couldnt possibly complain about this thread btw.

    182712[/snapback]

     

    Well, it was dedicated to you from the start. :blush:

    182727[/snapback]

     

    awww...

     

    :blush:

  6. I didn't watch the series, but my mam is there at the moment if that's any help?

    182695[/snapback]

    It wasn't built in a day and all roads lead there. Apparently.

    182706[/snapback]

     

    When you're there its important to remember to do as the Romans do is what I heard.

    182722[/snapback]

     

    What have they ever done for us like?

  7. I think of him more as a defensive soldier of fortune.

    182725[/snapback]

     

    Who has gone a bit native / chicken oriental?

     

    You see the cannibal remarks he made? He likes to eat attackers raw apparently. Its how he survives at the back.

  9. I take it the name of Carl Craig's 'More songs about food and revolutionary art' was inspired by Talking Heads? If anyone's heard of Carl Craig that is...

    182651[/snapback]

     

    Alex = impeccable taste.

     

    Paperclip People - Throw. Legendary Carl Craig track.

     

    I think you would be right on the inspiration too.

    182669[/snapback]

     

     

    So my Undertones reference is ignored and Alex gets all the plaudits. gah :blush:

    182676[/snapback]

     

     

    Sorry i missed that Bob. I'm a bit :blush: generally speaking.

    The Paperclip People collection 'The Secret Tapes of Dr. Eich' on Sound of Ministry was/is quality. Not sure if you can still get it but I was listening to it the other day.

    182673[/snapback]

     

    'Throw' is b/w a track called 'Eich me san schie' funnily enough.

     

    He did some great stuff with Bugz in the Attic in 97/98 and i have a vinyl only remix album from 2 years ago with 8 tracks that cost me a fucking fortune.

  12. Under different financial rules you can set up alternative types of funds that allow you to legally hide the names of the investors. In standard funds this is not possible but in a Hedge it is.

     

    They can say what they like about the investors (ie the people whose capital it is, Belgravia are just their agents) and never reveal their identity.

  13. Live albums are always a bit... though, when you want to talk about a best album. It'd be like including the greatest hits.

    182577[/snapback]

     

    Not what David Byrne would say about that album. Stop Making sense is the definitive live album and is also the definitive live concert video.

    182581[/snapback]

     

     

    Are you claiming that is the defintive live album or the defintive live album by the Talking Heads. If its the latter fair enough but the former would be a bit of a stretch

    182590[/snapback]

     

    Definitive live concert video.

     

    Its the whole package from the meticulous build up of imagery with every set shot in Demme's film carefully sketched out before hand and his desire to give the sound production a new edge.

     

    You could argue that musically The name of the band is better but that would be like trying to force a rizla paper into my crack hole using tension alone. They are both great.

     

    By the way if anyone has a vinyl copy of More song about buildings would be interested.
