They vary in quality but most are really good, especially The Laughing Policeman

Together Again Or (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 21:31 (six years ago)

Think I heard that The Terrorists is crazy.

They'll be running out of stands to rename.

The Corbynite Maneuver (Tom D.), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 21:43 (six years ago)

he's one of these players that had a hard early 60's apprenticeship at 2nd division Hudds Town and after helping them win promotion to Div One on shit wages and seeing our tight Yorkshire cunt chairman barely spend a penny to strengthen the squad, can't begrudge him jumping ship to L666s Utd at the first chance after we predictably got relegated tbf!

i didn't like roseanna but i hear it's not one of their best ones.

I always advise people to skip Roseanna and The Man Who Went Up in Smoke. The rest are great, esp. The Laughing Policeman and The Fire Engine That Disappeared.

The fillyjonk who believed in pandemics (Lily Dale), Thursday, 30 April 2020 09:29 (six years ago)

Yeah, those two

Together Again Or (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 30 April 2020 11:47 (six years ago)

i called most of those ex-England lags every name under the sun at the time but it's sad watching them peg out

RIP Matty Simmons (upper right), publisher of the National Lampoon, producer of ANIMAL HOUSE and the VACATION series. I heard a lot of shit spoken about Matty, and maybe it was deserved, but he was very open and supportive of me when I wrote MR. MIKE. So long. pic.twitter.com/ec2PLqRf43

Florian Schneider, of cancer.

Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 6 May 2020 15:40 (six years ago)

oh shit ..RIP Florian. I caught Kraftwerk live in Sheffield in '90 and it such a great gig.

calzino, Wednesday, 6 May 2020 15:43 (six years ago)

Fuck

Wuhan!! Got You All in Check (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Wednesday, 6 May 2020 15:45 (six years ago)

I don't do many gigs but when I saw Kraftwerk it was the first time I had that sense of witnessing true iconic legends ... not just mere mortals.

calzino, Wednesday, 6 May 2020 15:51 (six years ago)

Florian always seemed to be the one who was enjoying himself most ;_;

Angry Question Time Man's Flute Club Band (Tom D.), Wednesday, 6 May 2020 15:53 (six years ago)

I think Florian did a very amusing parody of a guitar solo on his Pocket Calculator keyboard when I saw them, but it was 30 years ago and I don't trust my memory that much.

calzino, Wednesday, 6 May 2020 16:23 (six years ago)

Yes, that was his little bit of stagecraft!

Angry Question Time Man's Flute Club Band (Tom D.), Wednesday, 6 May 2020 16:23 (six years ago)

Fuck. RIP.
