Re: The Tube DVD - featuring The Strangs
For anyone considering this DVD please note that the DVD only features one Stranglers song (European Female). They don't feature the normal 3 song setlist that all bands had on the show (I presume they did this in order to squeeze in a many bands as possible).

Re: Reggie Perrin
I can't see this remake being successful as you simply can't beat Leonard Rossiter, he was a genius and the Reggie part was made for him. It's a bit like doing a remake of Fawlty towers and getting someone else to do Basil it just would'nt work as the original Cleese performance can't be bettered. 8)

Re: ULTRAVOX! - Return to Eden Tour 2009
Only "Love's Great Adventure" was missing but nothing lost there really - they probably didn't fancy the stop/start style of the song. All in all, a great night, and I haven't been to the Dome for 20 years - great view and sound. Seeing the Manics at the same venue in 5 weeks Totally agre...

Re: ULTRAVOX! - Return to Eden Tour 2009
Went to the Edinburgh Playhouse gig on the 10th April (first show). Excellent gig with a great atmosphere. Just sound as good as their heyday and you wouldn't believe they hadn't played together for 24 years!! Started with the instrumental "Astradyne". The songs I can remember were Vienna,...

Re: Which new headphones?
I bought the Shure SE530 earphones about a year ago and they blow away any other earphones in the market. The sound is amazing on the ipod. They are pricey though, but a good investment.

Re: New Cloughie movie
I saw Archie Gemmill on the TV and he was furious with the book. He said the representation of Brian Clough was so far off the mark it was a joke. He said that the author couldn't have done any research as he said at the time in Cloughie's career he never smoke, drank and very rarely swore. The fami...
