@Moose the Mooche. Apologies for the delay – I’ve been away awhile. As dark as my personality is you may be relieved to know it is the 2004 Paul Haggis film and not the 1996 film of the same name. The Haggis film […]

New album isn’t as good – but how on earth could it possibly be?

Can’t work out if the Churchill nomination was serious and can’t see it is was vetoed as Man City seemed to take over. But, just in case, I veto Churchill.

Totally agree. I reviewed his Brain Dump Exeter show last month. His imagination is unmatched these days. He could be the grandson of Milligan.

Not sure how to post a pic so please google. I saw one at the Chrysler museum in Detroit. The museum is sadly closed, Detroit sadly is not.

Eric Skeels. Stoke City legend and a name to match. In my first proper job me and some of my mates played a football board game called penalty at lunchtimes (the game was later relaunched as “Gazza”). We called […]

Always difficult to know whether they are recording for commercial purposes these days but I assumed they were. As usual they were using cameras to show close ups on the large screen behind the band. I’m not sure […]

I have to admit to being a line-up purist when it comes to Sabbath. I’m inconsistent with this as it most certainly doesn’t apply to all bands. But, for me, Sabbath without Ozzy just wasn’t Sabbath. I’ve nothing […]

Let’s play twister – let’s play risk

There aren’t many songs more likely to give my godawful singing a run out. Hey now, hey now now sing this corrosion to me.

Scottish football is an exercise in futility. Marching against a monster who isn’t listening is probably futile. I’m cheered by the marginal difference, hope reigns eternal.

Couldn’t work out what the show’s purpose was. By any definition it was poor.

Ok, I think sticking to one album per artist is probably the easiest way to go.

Atomic Rooster – In Hearing Of…………
Yes – The Yes Album (if I wasn’t limiting then Yessongs would be included)
Hawkwind – […]

I’ve tried all sorts over the years. I put on loads of weight during years of interim contracts with lots of boring driving. Couldn’t get 5:2 to work and certainly couldn’t see it as a long term lifestyle choice. […]

That’s cleared that up, I can relax for a few hours now.

Totally agreed. I Think that the series bookended by Fragile and Relayer are the albums that leave non-Yes fans scratching their heads (or covering their ears). The Yes Album is alltogether more accessible and yet […]

Can we have a new update which defines the timezone that you are applying to the voting cut-off?

Totally agree and have a similar frame of reference in terms of years. At times during the gig I closed my eyes and everything was fine and then I’d open them and bang there’s young Jon again. I don’t even think […]
