Can't see any of that at work, sadly, but can't wait to check it out at home. How did the gig on Saturday go?

The (utterly fantastic) Blue Minkies were from Brighton and released the wonderfully titled "Christmas Means Nothing Without Presents" and also a cover of Mud's "Lonely This Christmas..." Also, excitingly, they mentioned that they are looking to reunite for two gigs next summer; one in...

When can we start posting thread-friendly Christmas songs?

I was going to suggest this place, round the corner in Herne Hill, but sadly still out of action... http://www.thehalfmoonpublichouse.co.uk/index.php/latest-news/87-flood-update

This is a decent pub and I'm pretty sure it shows the footie. Nice and central without being stupidly busy. http://www.youngs.co.uk/pubs/trinity-arms

Don't forget to get along to The Horse & Groom this afternoon if you're not at / watching the game. The Fireworks play at approx 8.30 and it's free to get in; More info here... https://www.facebook.com/events/705631846117441/?fref=ts

1,000 posts - who'd have thought?! Good work chaps; here's to the next 1,000 :o)

Ooh blimey!

I don't know them actually, but one of the Fireworks I'm friends with is going out with one of the chaps from HSOL. Liz from the School on the other hand, and her fella Tim... ;o) I really didn't llike HSOL, but they did have one good song - Record Store. They also had the termerity to cover...

Skin Storm? It's the only title of theirs I know, but I haven't heard it in at least 20 years. Actually, I think I have the 12" somewhere. Wasn't there a Morrissey connection or summink?

That first Pale Saints album was stunning, but I've not played it for years. Must dig out a copy. One good song? I nominate The Heart Throbs:

Arf!

You can get all sorts of lovely stuff here, much of it locally produced. http://www.middlefarm.com/cider-and-perry.html

This. With bells on. They were as much fun as a razorblade in a toffee apple.

Well spotted and thanks for putting it right. An absolute all-time, drop-dead, emotionally drenched classic.

Too young, or too coked up to remember anything important. I can just see The Family Cat's 'Tom Verlaine' being used to promote a debt consolidation company in ITV4's daytime schedules! Anyway, here's another corking cover. Now, where to start with Armitage Shanks :bowdown:

I love The Clash, but I prefer The Bartlebee's version of Garageland: The Frente version of Bizarre Love Triangle mentioned earlier; I'm surprised that hasn't been used by a mobile phone company, supermarket chain, or car manufacturer in an ad yet. Seems to be all the rage - fragile, acoustic...

It's a traumatised rat. Traumatised because someone's trodden on his winkle and flattened it. True story.

Snow from this morning (in the Faroe Islands)!

Yeah, years with nothing, then two dog turd references in a matter of days! :lolol: Is there a reputation I'm not aware of?
