I won’t list her name, but she’s not a well known actress. She’s very good otherwise.

I owned ever owned three commercial cassettes, given to me with my beloved Panasonic boombox for Christmas in 1984. They were Led Zeppelin III, Presence and 1984: All the Hits. But taping music was a huge part […]

NO IT ISN’T!!!

Again, how the Democrats could be in this position against Trump at this point in the presidential race is beyond belief. While Kamala Harris is an admirable candidate from many perspectives, she is not going to […]

No, but that won’t stop me milking it to explain missed deadlines for a couple of weeks.

I saw him in 98 and it was the worst performance by a professional musician I’ve ever seen.

I just realised that for 20+ years my brain has merged Puddle of Mudd and Limp Bizkit into a single, vile entity. My mental scaffolding is collapsing.

I did a write up on here of the gig I saw them do in Brisbane last December. If the set had been 45 minutes shorter it would have been one of the best gigs I had ever seen. As it was, it had a very long, drowsy […]

Sounds like a great gig and I agree that MTTG is one of the great singles, although I would have been quite happy if she had left her Pips at home that day. I love the fact that it was originally called the […]

I have to say, Bingo, that that is as fine a piece of writing that I’ve read on here for some time. It even prompted me to listen to Grace on a cold, drizzly day here yesterday. My conclusion is the same as w […]

Boom was alright, although there was no tension whatsoever with the Doctor standing on the mine. It should have been a supporting character (like the little girl, who stood around for the episode doing literally […]

When Biden won the last election, consensus seemed to be that he was a safe pair of hands to stay in for a couple of years and then pass the baton over. I don’t think anyone, apart from maybe Biden, dreamed he w […]

If we are taking the question as written, i.e. considering removal of an artist rather than a desert island scenario, then it’s Van for me too. Those early albums have been a salve for me many times. “If I venture […]

Tranquilliser is a bit of a misnomer, if you are in fact referring to Ketamine. It’s a dissociative anaesthetic which means it gives you an out-of-body experience. In my veterinary days it was frequently used as p […]

I was a podcast devotee and audiobook denouncer for years. I had an Audible account for my kids, but when I started on my fitness push a year ago, I found they were a perfect companion to melt the hours […]

This won’t make one bit of difference to his supporters. It just plays into their beliefs. Remember, these idiots have already accepted him openly admitting to sexually assaulting women, to his ludicrous COVID […]

The solo is pure Mick Taylor slide.

I don’t think so. It sounds like bends to me. You can hear hammer ons etc later in the riff. Page was far too sloppy a slide player for the perfect intonation on that. Edit. Here you go.
