Yes but strangely the biggest selling album of the year was by my old mate Adele, I really wonder who actually likes her music? It's just such boring music and I won't even say IMHO about her.All she writes about is her ex relationships, compelling eh? No it's fucking tedious taffle, I've made up a new word to describe her music Taffle. Lt Kudu. :smt013

Taffle is an actual word it means confused, I had a boss once a Colonel who used to say Caggage, he was eccentric, he needed to see the top Officer one day and forgot his black shoes, so he was going around trying on various peoples shoes to see if they fitted, he also broke his leg mowing the lawn, I did some extra work privately for him once, I won't say more.

Played it in full after a x-mas/new year break. Still love it.I think its a great album to sign off with. There will be no more' but if they want to drop a new song on us out of the blue Im fine with that. A band that I like from sweden The Sounds' they just out of the blue dropped a 4 track ep on us called 'the tales we tell' and I loved all the tracks. So thats my view with DM and future releases. I remember when I saw the artwork for DM in May that we had something special to look forward to and I was right. Enjoy the indian summer of this amazing journey and band. Im sure in 20 years time we will still be on here posting our views good or bad' what if, they should have done this, etc. We'll all have to meet up one day and have a few beers and a bit of a moan (mine would be they never got the credit they deserved).

I wouldn’t be sure on that, from the recent interviews it appears one of the fall outs of “no more full tours”, is “a better balance between playing live and recording” so we might get something. I think a lot depends upon how they will feel after the two years or so of touring DM.
Then I got tired of counting all of these blessings, and then I just got tired.

JJ always said he had hundreds of ideas so if they aren't touring so much then maybe they will find the time for another album or at least release a few new songs online etc.
