It's bloody crap. That Mick Middles gadgey can't fucking write to begin with, but when he starts talking about the band

Like this.
In Mark's mother's house.
Drinking Tea.
That's what it's all about.
And nobody gets it.

He sounds like a cunt. Fifteen quid not well spent.

Which one is it Danny? I got one which wasn`t too bad although there was no involvement from Mr Smith as he refused to be involved

Shit, looks like I got the wrong one! This one's called "The Fall", by MES and Mick Middles.

And aye, I do have a DVD player.

You got the new Fall DVD (blackburn) - It`s surprisingly good. Some interesting extra`s where Mr Smith is chatting to his band "You wanna play this properly tonight?", "What key is that played in? But what chords are you playing?" quality stuff! :D
