Paul Kersey

Absolutely love this. A proper musical, with a proper overture, and even an interval. I can only think this was as an attempt to make a night at the cinema as like a night at the theatre as possible. Oliver! has the same set up - and is also a great musical. They've both been on my by box for over a year, as even just having the songs on in the background makes the day better. Tradition! It was the first time that I'd seen it. The three hours just flew in. Like you say the music is good and it has made me want to check out some authentic Klezmer music. The only other film that I can think of with an intermission is Tora Tora Tora. It works well there, kinda builds up the tension before Pearl Harbour is attacked.

Fiddler on the Roof Epic musical about a Jewish man in early 20th Century Ukraine who is torn between the wishes of his family and the traditions of his faith. This is really well acted and entertaining. 9/10

TBH, having any flag* in your house/garden/car/window is pretty fucking moronic. *apart from Mozambique. That is cool as f**k.

I've got a week off work coming up. I think I'll spend it going through this thread.

A few German beers for tonight.

German artists often do the same, but in German not Spanish obvs. Peter Schilling, Nena and Kraftwerk all spring to mind.

The early 90s club scene summed up in 18 minutes...

Arthur Russell smashing it out of the park with 13 minutes of disco bliss..

The Germans seem to have a lot of time on their hands...

Another favourite of mine is the samples from Performance in Mad Cyril by the Happy Mondays. Unfortunately I can't find any suitable clips online, so you'll just have to take my word for it.

The thing that gets me is that way that Celtic and Rangers always work together on this type of initiative. They claim to be rivals but they just can't help giving each other reacharounds at every opportunity.

Can the "Colts" just f**k off already... and take those Berwick c***s with you please...

Sounds like One Summer, although the kids were scousers, not Northern irish... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Summer

A nice slice of disco from 1980...

I'd put this into my top five albums of all time. The ten minute guitar solo on the title track never fails to make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. The perfect Sunday evening album.

Yeah, six years ago I would never have believed that we'd be competing with the likes of Partick, Falkirk and Morton and yet here we are... with half of the same team that faced Brora. Stewart Petrie should be president of the People's Republic of Montrose.

A wee bit o' Sault...

I wonder if they'll have chips on the menu? After all, chips were invented in Belgium and potatoes were originally imported into Europe from South America by the Spanish.

True, I don't think anybody in Montrose is counting their chickens just yet. QOS two years ago is still fresh in the memory.
