    Not sure what data (if any?) this has been pulled from, but Christine's Cat is surely out of proportion?

    An album without a bum track on it

    Well, I actually think Bewitched and Take Me are two of the best tracks on Bizarro. I think one of the WP's strengths is that (for me) there is no definitive best album - their best tracks are sprinkled liberally over all of them. I think that a "bum" track isn't such a bad idea on a good album...

    An album without a bum track on it

    I think I agree with this - just about every album has its "Death At One's Elbow", "Don't Stop", "Polar Bear" or "Hit The Plane Down". I'm struggling to name a bad track on "Reading, Writing and Arithmetic", but I think maybe the peaks aren't high enough to justify special inclusion (although it...

    Has anyone seen any butterflies this year in England?

    Seen quite a few more over the weekend, cabbage whites, red admirals plus loads of small heaths in a field nearby who were really getting quite frisky....

    Hmmm - that split 7" with Headbirth and Dog Food ain't all that. They couldn't hold a candle to Laurence and the Comfortable Society - the ULTIMATE C86 sensations.

    Ah, but do you own any records by Strawberry Story?

    When's the Nivens retrospective appearing?

    Glad I asked. He must have been listening pretty intently to copy it like that - sounds like a dangerous and intense individual. Let's hope it wasn't Pevenseagull - was he really tall and thin??

    Indietracks Festival / all things C86 and indiepop!

    I think I've only got one release by Strawberry Story, a split 7" with Dalek Beach Party and Kind. Didn't really stick in the memory. Might have something on Waaah as well. This compilation looks a bit lengthy....

    I assume you'll be wearing some rather short denim shorts, Hunter wellies and an anorak?

    Sorry, no. Will there be extensive BBC coverage via the red button? Make sure you drag Staly along to see Martha....

    vault of glorious acoustic cover versions

    Sorry to be negative, but I HATE acoustic cover versions, plus any acoustic bit of any non-acoustic concert. However, I can think of two examples where an artist has done a better, acoustic version of one of their own songs: Ride With Me by The Lemonheads and My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue) by...

    Vinyl or downloads ?

    I prefer vinyl, but I don't like the price of it. Are vinyl lovers being exploited?

    Thanks - will give them a watch. Get Jane Weaver mixed up with Jane Wiedlin.

    What Are You NSC's Expert On?

    Come now, Jem, is there such a thing as too much here? If we all club together, we could persuade Gentle Despite to make a half-time pitch appearance maybe, or get Claire to write an angsty column in the programme? I didn't actually list ALL my musical obsessions - just one or two. Could you get...

    What Are You NSC's Expert On?

    Accounting and accounting disclosure rules (although anyone claiming this understandably lives in the shadow of El Pres), Franz Kafka, Sarah Records, early releases on WARP records, fairly knowledgeable on all things Sussex, Thomas Hardy, bits and pieces on BHA (of course). Ummm, electric guitar...
