Re: Taxi For Michelle Mone?

I'm sure Michelle Mone is an ex-Scottish Labour supporter. At the last election she came out as a celebrity Tory, a species so rare north of the border that they could hold their annual meeting in a bus shelter. The only other celebs, if that's the right word, who openly backed Cameron were the gay ...

Re: WHAT THE FCUK ARE YOU LOT LISTENIN TO - When it's not th

It's Alive is one of all the all time great live albums. I've got mixed feelings about The Ramones but that album catches them at their most vital. I haven't listTened to an album straight through in an age, the last few songs I've listened to on my Ipod were I Don't Mind (Buzzcocks), Tame (The Pixi...

Re: Socrates

Legendary football player, from one of the greatest sides never to win the World Cup. I remember dancing about like a maddie when Dave Narey smashed Scotland 1-0 into the lead but that just got the Brazilians angry :grin: and they proceeded to dismantle us, with Socrates and Junior to the fore. Not ...

Re: The Damned - Edinburgh Picture HOuse 20/11/11

Not much you can add to that review, covers everything nicely. It was a great gig and must have been energy sapping as they were on stage for the best part of 2 hours. I wasn't looking forward to Curtain Call as it's one of those songs that I listen to for 5 mins on the ipod then skip to the next tr...

Re: INSPIRAL CARPETS 2008 TOUR

At last, some news about Inspirals. I'd given up checking out their website as it seemed to update as often as the test card. If they are planning to tour and come up to Glasgow I'll be off to see them, though it will be strange to see them without Tom Hingley on vocals. I appreciate Stephen Holt wa...

Jello Biafra

I see the ex-Dead Kennedys front man is coming to Glasgow this August with his new band, The Guatanamo School of Medicine. I missed out on the chance to go and see the remaining members of DK when they played Scotland a few years back so will go along to see Jello and his new act in the hope that th...

Re: News Of The World To Close Down

I''d love to think this was the beginnng of the end for Digger's media empire. The man is a cnut of the highest order and this tax dodging right wing git has way too much influence over government policy, whether it's Cameron or New Labour. However, I'm enough of a cynic to think that Murdoch's ditc...

Re: william and kate

Thank feck I live in the frozen north. Apart from Edinburgh and St Andrews, where you would be lucky to find a scot anyway, nobody gave a toss. Still, even as a republican I have to thank William and Kate for getting me a day off work, especially as its been unseasonably warm up here over the weekend.

Re: Top Three "They're shite!"

Shite might be a bit strong, but bands I really don't get, and think are totally over-rated are as follows Arctic Monkeys - got their first album as a birthday present and thank feck, cos at least I didn't waste my own money on it. Whole album feels like one long, long song. Kings of Leon - couple o...
