  1. You probably wouldn't think of either of them in relation to it but the pedal steel guitar on 'Apollo' by Brian Eno and on 'Chill Out' by the KLF is brilliant. On the former it's performed by Daniel Lanois who you'll know from his work with Eno/U2.
  2. Shows where their priorities lie like. Fuck me.
  3. That says snow fell more more widely than expected, not that the Met Office said it wouldn't snow at all. Nice try though
  4. Aye nasty pre-nasty club bar I think I only went to the Ritzy twice like. Twice too often. I knew it would be shit and I was right.
  5. In the 90s, aye. I used to have that on a mix tape from Progress as it happens. I bet you got fucking sick of it in Central Park like (that's where you used to work isn't it?).
  6. I know what you mean like. I get the feeling he thinks he's canny good.
  7. http://www.flavorwir...-famous-authors The James Joyce one is the best:
  8. What I can't understand about Team Northumbria is that hardly any students play for them.
  9. Restricted myself to one per artist / band (and also included some stuff I loved as a kid but probably wouldn't listen to much these days): 3 Feet High and Rising - De La Soul 101 - Depeche Mode The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses The Unforgettable Fire - U2 Candy Apple Grey - Husker Du Technique - New Order The Queen is Dead - The Smiths The Real Thing - Faith No More Nebraska - Bruce Springsteen Closer - Joy Division Vivid - Living Colour Club Classics Vol. 1 - Soul II Soul 90 - 808 State Doolittle - Pixies Thriller - Michael Jackson Computer World - Kraftwerk Running in the Family - Level 42 Killing Joke - Killing Joke Nothing's Shocking - Jane's Addiction Bleach - Nirvana Just remembered a couple, hence the edit.
  10. Does CT realise the economist and the rapper/kid off Celebrity Big Brother are two different people?
  11. I saw Daft Punk live (PA, not DJ-ing) at Tribal Gathering (98 I think). Absolutely class.
  12. Alex

    Hangovers

    CT in Florita's btw
  13. Remember the one where they fell for the story about a UFO landing in their garden?
  14. It was David Scarboro who played Mark (I had to google the name). I remember it because we did about it as a case study at school for PSE or some lesson like that. Properly tragic actually as they didn't even have any dirt on him beyond hounding him about the depression he suffered from which was exacerbated by not coping with fame. It was the good old News of the World.
  15. I got his autograph in Tenerife about 25 years ago. RIP. I loved The Sky at Night.
  16. Thought the Beeb got their forecast off the Met Office. The Beeb said it would snow on Wednesday.
  17. Didn't even see your list when I did mine. Canny
  18. Btw, what do you with naughty, attention-seeking children? You ignore them
  19. Aye. The people who want the DJs hung out to dry seem to be totally oblivious to the fact they're at least as bad for now wanting to wreck two people's lives by ruining their careers / reputation (and presumbly if possible seek criminal prosecutions). I'm sure they are knobs, they're radio DJs so it's virtually a given, but still. Tragic about the nurse obviously, such a waste. It's getting a ridiculous amount of coverage so I'm sure the lynch mob will get their wishes.
  20. I reckon you googled it and still had to answer D.
  21. You'd expect a quarter even if everyone just guessed
  22. It's some American fuckwit who was spamming on various Amazon forums, trying to sell copies of his e-book. Pure (unintentional) comic genius.
  23. :lol: No he isn't. Stop it!
