Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

As an avid football fan , I do like some football banter on here..... why pick on football when there are other far less popular sports/subjects ? Having said that , there are forum's for football fans and individual clubs in abundance - but wouldn't it be a bit boring on here if we were purely Stra...

That sounds good. No real change in direction though from the last album on that track IMO. I'm looking forward to this album though. It's difficult to change the direction of a juggernaut. :smile: Don't know - I like this a lot after one hearing . It sounds like JC is actually singing rather than ...

Mesrine - Killer Instinct ( pt 1) and Public Enemy no 1 ( pt 2) A film about killer/bank robber Jaques Mesrine - or 2 films rather . Excellent films . Don't know quite how true they are as I think they are based a lot on what Mesrine wrote while in prison . shows how incompetent the French police we...

Saw Inglorious Basterds the other night and thought it was excellent. The bloke who played the SS officer (Christophe Waltz) was brilliant. There's an old version of this film - well , same name anyway . Its one of those films thats so bad its almost good . Must be from the 80's . Don't know if the...

Just watched Bourne Supremacy and Bourne Ultimatum . Haven't seen the first one yet . I really enjoyed both of these . Don't know why it took me so long to get round to them .

When I have watched in th epast I've enjoyed it , one moment in particular stands out - Lance Armstrong , forced off the road into a field , the road went on into the distance then roun...

I say sell Beckford to a Prem club ( likes of Wigan , Bolton , Stoke etc ) - get the money , say £2.5m for arguements sake - and bring in someone who wants to play for Leeds . Meanwhile Beckford will find out he is nowhere near good enough to cut it at the top level , his first touch is awful . I wo...

I just got an email from my company. From 2010 I will be working from Rome. It will be for around one year. This will be without the wife and kids......not that happy, but I guess I'm still in employment. If you guys have any info or places to have a beer in Rome, please let me know. Went a few yea...

Missed it . Catch it on internet later on I guess .

A question and answer from tomorrow's NME. Looks as though Simon won't be introducing The Stranglers as mentors then!!!! Are you a rock music fan? (from Neil Simon, Biffy Clyro guitarist and singer): Simon Cowell- "I went to a very, very small Stranglers gig in this horrific venue and literall...

X-Factor and the acts that appear on it , eevrything it represents - is quite irrelevant and pointless to me . Never watched it , never will .

I generally look every day , but only seem to post at weekends .
