@salwarpe – you could always just go: >>> bump

Glad you realised, otherwise somebody else would have had to point it out to you!

Curate your own OP by replying to the contributions of others, perhaps containing a (ahem, “deliberate”) misunderstanding to stimulate further responses. Or, you could always diss Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey or […]

Momus appears to have form. How about “A Complete History of Sexual Jealousy Parts 17-24” for a title?

I’d never heard of “selvedge” before I read this OP (I had to look it up) but – minutes later – when I looked at the Braces OP, I saw it mentioned three times. Synchronicity! * Edit: unless, of course, a lot of […]

I need to update my PC too. It has Windows 10 and not much oomph.

Rock On, Tommy! I used to have braces on my trousers as a young lawyer, but it was London in the late 80s. I had a lovely pair (are they a pair? Not sure) in lilac with golden angels (or something similar) on […]

Funnily enough, I have just this evening read an email from HSBC saying that the HSBC app will shortly no longer work on Android 10. My Samsung is about 7 years old (Android 10) and is getting tired. I am sure […]

I agree. Tigerlily is one of my favourite albums and “Wonder” is a song I go back to again and again.

I’m torn between Roxy Music with Both Ends Burning at the Apollo in 2001 and Bryan with Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues in 2007. Let’s go with Both Ends Burning, not least because of his Dad dancing at the end.

Have an “up” for The Trinity Sessions!

Bit too early for me.too. I’m glad he went electric.

Tried (and failed) to edit. There is a “know” missing after the first word of my answer 3.

For one reason or another, I have not been a great concert goer, so this list of 10 may well end up as a catalogue of all of them. Not quite, but … 1. First Concert – Echo & The Bunnymen at the Poole Arts […]

Super Beat – Nine Below Zero Watch Me Jumpstart – Guided By Voices A Wasteland Companion – M Ward Moribund The Burgermeister – Peter Gabriel Lenny’s Tune – Morrissey Half of me thinks that I ought to […]

@tiggerlion Ignoring that you said that Talking Heads’ similarly titled Thank You For Sending Me An Angel is a bit strong, this thread is a good excuse to post Scottish popsters Friends Again with Thank You F […]

At the risk of trying the patience of the Afterword on matters Hungarian, here is Gábor Presser (ex of LGT, commonly said to be the Hungarian Beatles*) at a concert at which Mrs Pajp and I were present in 2001, […]

Hurrah! Another chance for me to inflict the Afterword with somewhat dated Hungarian pop music. I’d blame @kaisfatdad if I was you – not for the fact that my choices are dated but for the fact that I post them […]

In my typical johnny-come-lately fashion, I have thought of a few more foreign language faves. The first is Vanessa Paradis with Divine Idylle (See also: Dès qu’j’te vois) The second is Youssou N’Dour wi […]
