If Music Could Talk

Have just seen this thread - what dreadful news. Genuinely gutted to hear about 101, he was one of my first friends when I started posting on this site, and he was always very nice to me. I liked his humour and his passion for music, and the way he could hold his own in debates. I hope you’re all sa...

Oh shit. We’re getting to the age now where all our musical idols are dropping off. This is such sad news.

Actually I think, as ever, Mr Otway was the only idiot - he can't have made much money on this! It cost £25 I think for what was basically a weekend-long Otway-fest in London: a couple of gigs by him, a pub crawl with him and some of his team, and a screening/premier at the Leicester Square Odeon c...

There's one rockumentary that everyone HAS to watch, and that's not just because (ahem) I was one of the producers (well, along with several hundred other idiots who pledged money to get it made) 'Otway - The Movie' http://otwaythemovie.com/home.html Bravo to you and the rest of the idiots! John Ot...

Man, Joe looks and sounds good there. He would have been 49 on there. To be fair, Dick Rude ain't no interviewer
Nice find.

Good little interview. Possibly other artists wouldn’t have been as gracious as Joe in the face of such an awkward interview technique?

I’ve got tickets for David Byrne in June. Beyond excited. Laura Mvula is supporting him - I don’t know huge amounts of her stuff but what I’ve seen is impressive.

This Country on BBC3 via the iplayer. One of the funniest shows I’ve seen in a long time.

Wankers indeed. Good for you - it’s a good feeling when you know you’ve got right on your side. I had a long-running battle with a supermarket chain about the salt content of their vegetarian sausages - it started as a jokey comment on their website and escalated. I hate it when companies treat us l...

Everyone comes back eventually, this place has a weird hold on folks. Welcome back!

This aired on Saturday. Haven't seen it yet, but some friends of mine were interviewed in it as well, which is super cool (Andy was a fan of their version of That Wave).

Very cool. I listened to Fassine's cover after the programme and thought it was rather fab.

Thoroughly enjoyed this doc. Hearing Easter Theatre again made my spine tingle.

The 'ernying' and the Dylan impression really made me chuckle.

I wonder if Barry Andrews was asked to take part?

Very sad news.

Narcos. I just watched over the last week. I loved it; coke, murder, Colombian sexy ladies. All the above and yep it's excellent. Old post I know, but I need to give this series another try. I got fed up with the narration in the first episode, like we were too stupid to read the subtitles. However...

Belated happy birthday Marky.

Hi mate, how are you? All good here. Great thanks, good to hear from you. What's new in your life over the past 8 years!!!! Now look what you've done, you've scared her away again. ;) Ha, I'm still here :smile: I would love to say I've visited dozens of countries, taken a new career path and learnt...
