Raith Against The Machine

I'm just back from Liverpool, been there since Monday, but found out that my Grandad, who's been ill for quite a while, died on Tuesday morning. It isn't as bad as you might think, I've never been particularly close to him and he was a heavy drinker, especially in the years since his wife died (1978, I think!) and he's been ill and really wasting away in hospital, he knew he'd never go home. I'm not actually too saddened, he's never been a big part of my life but it's my Mum that I'm worried about.

It was, quite simply, "Paki's go home", it's now "Paki's don't go home"

No such luck for me, I end up sitting in someone's house looking at their CDs saying "You've got some decent music here." "Those are my Mum's CDs"

I had a look at that "Top 5 Songs From Before You Were Born" thread, and I thought "This would probably just be my Top 5 songs" It's ridiculous

Mountain - Nantucket Sleighride Just how fecking good are Mountain!? I realise I have the musical taste of a 40 year old man, I've come to terms with it.

About half way through the Jojo thread there's quite a heated discussion on the very same subject. Except it was in 2005, and she was 15!

A demo version of Free Bird, by Lynyrd Skynyrd, where Allen Collins' guitar string snaps just as the big solo starts, but the rest of the band keep playing for the rest of the 11 minute song until Collins' restrings the guitar and joins in for the big finish!

I'm tired and spend too much time on the computer... I'm doing a Sudoku in the paper, and browsing P&B. I just tried to Alt+Tab back to the Sudoku Bedtime, methinks...

Lady Stardust - David Bowie My favourite Bowie song, yet it rarely gets a mention anywhere.

I need help from the P&B Masses. There's an advert with the tag line "It's What Happy People Do", does anybody have any idea what the product/service is? Would be a great help

Morden - Good Shoes What a song, I just love the line "Drunken fools singing 80s tunes"

O RLY?

Aye, we noticed...

I'm not happy with the amount of Fifism that goes on here! You're all Fifist

I'm currently watching Pink Floyd: The Wall. I'm so confused Don't think I'm on nearly enough drugs to understand it.

I know that now. Think I'll go and buy some soon!

Too late, sausages are cooked. Ah well, Tabasco it is.

There's no brown sauce for sausage rolls! This is a disaster

Good shit or bad shit!? Jamie T can't sing, but his song writing is decent. Better than The Streets or any other "urban UK" stuff I've heard (which, admittedly, isn't very much). It's also a great song for singing on the beach after you've had a few...

Gonna tell us which two and mark them out of 10?

Coup, you're a silly b*****d. The first date on the banner should be 7-9-02, and the second should be 5-6-07!

You think that's bad... the Automatic O2 Top-Up Woman won't answer my calls!

Paradise compared to Linopolis!

Sunnier, not scummier
