Musings on the byways of popular culture
We shall paddle harder but we’ll still be up the same creek.
I for one will be pushing the envelope in the full knowledge it will remain stationery.
*ripples of gentle applause*
A stamp of approval there.
Oh I say.
Treasury tags. Gone, but not forgotten.
Not gone. They reappeared in my workplace last year so that we wouldn’t use so many covid-friendly plastic folders.
..assuming we manage to find that missing paddle, of course.
Light a candle I shall. I see war, economic chaos, increasing social unrest and division, and the very fabric unravelling. It is all cyclical/karmic, and being Kali Yuga, we must buckle up, hold tight, and ride it out as best we can. I am not being flippant, far from it, but when all is done, no matter how hard, a positive phase of renewal and regeneration will dawn. Light will prevail, and the balance of divine cosmic energies will be restored.
AUM
Have a Werthers, old chap.

Not only is it 2/2/22, it’s also the 2nd day of Chinese New Year. Must mean something…..
At 2:22.22 on 2.2.22, in a totally toothsome tutu, I will abase my too too sullied flesh and toot a tune to honour Desmond Tutu.
I think you might have been at the toot already.
Are you suggesting I am on the Labour front bench? How very Johnsonian.
This date was foretold by roadies.
I saw a progressive rock band once whose roadie intoned, “3…3…3…3….”.
“thirteen…eight” surely?
Or “two, one, one, two” if they were in a Rush.
*applauds*
Thank you! Can’t believe it took a whole day for someone to get that. I’m wasted here.
Can you find your way back home?
Jon Anderson can (eventually)
Probably not. He’s working, man.
Will it be this?
That clip was sponsored by St-St-St-St-Studioline.
Twist it! Spike it!
The way you like it!
(But please ask your saxophone player to tape up the backdrop).
The collapse of Spotify. I think the current cracks are indicative of a big downturn of some kind about to happen.
The queen’s death, which I think will prompt a good bit of soul searching and turmoil in the country about the role of the monarchy in general.
Boris Johnson will ride out the current controversies and we will all be saying this time next year how we can’t believe he is still in power.
In addition to that; war, pestilence, famine, dogs and cats living together.
The last thing has already happened. I seed it on the Facebook’s. Yes.
England will not win the World Cup.
Football, Rugby Union, Rugby League, Cricket or Wordle?
Yes
Progressive rock? This is worse that I thought.
ABBA will release a Gerry Rafferty tribute album.
Bakerloo?
Niiiice.
SHVL 762
Stuck In The Middle With Ulvaeus.
I was going to make a joke involving Agnetha and the word Humblebum, but thought better of it.
My therapist will be so pleased.
My first draft was Stuck In The Middle With Voulez-Vous.
Can I Have My Money Money Money Back?
Summer Night City To City
A date prophesised by many a sound technician.
Forever Changes will still be my favourite album.
This is the only thing that I am sure of.
Am waiting for 22/2/22
I’m waiting for the year 2525.
If man is still alive…
If they are, they’ll still be touring.
I’ve got my scuba gear – I’m waiting for the year 3000.
No that was 1983, a merman I turned out not to be.
Whereas 1984 certainly had a savage jaw – viz several records by Toto Coelo.
In 20 days, Richie Benaud will rise and lead the earth into the next dimension.
I will not become aware of my favourite album of the year until after Loders has compiled the Afterword best of 2022.
A pedant writes: 2-2-22 = -22
Yes, I have been helping my lad with his Maths homework.
Whoa so 22 days to Day Zero. Does anyone know a nice artisan carpenter who does sustainable planks for boarding up your windows?
The petrol I’m stockpiling is technically organic.
Beware of wild tigers and snakes this year, as they are very very dangerous.
Your car will need more petrol (or electricity).
Oh my!
Steve Hoffman board will explode when someone confuses Seals and Croft with Loggins and Messina, and then admits to preferring Venus and Mars to Band on the Run, and thinks Jimmy Page is an average guitarist, not as good as Tony Bellamy from Redbone.
Your comment betrays a disturbingly intimate knowledge of the Huffman board.
Gorts! Lock this thread.
Eric Carmen really rocks out!
Let’s have a Jimmy Buffett shootout! 1983 Target vs. OG Ludwig. I picked up the target and I’m very happy with it . 👍👍👍
The Babys Weakest Track? Let’s start with the underrated first album!
Poll: which is Splinter’s worst b-side?
Yes and Asia become the same band officially.
Steven Wilson remix of No Parlez.
6-disc box coming up.
Not sure, but I think it was Vulpes who named this box “Mo’ Parlez.”
No Mo’ Parlez please. Think of the children.
They’re already living on a free food ticket.
That was my joke, aktcheloi.
It was a fantastically good one. Kudos.

The 5.1 mix gives 360 degrees of simulated Pino.
You’ve always wanted a much bigger Pino.
Yes, mainly for the slapping.
And the flanged bottom end
The house we started on in Feb 2021 still wont be built.

Impressive sound projection – all the way from Mongolia to the South Pacific?

Age makes me less calm than before, but I try to remain pacific.
