Woo-hoo

I am so glad that I concur with DiS, I listened to SOS again on Sunday and decided once and for all that it was my album of the year, then check on here for the first time in a few days, and you agree!

The most pathetic thing about this ridiculous list is...

the way it changes almost completely from year to year, with no rhyme nor reason. Conor McNicholas must surely be the only person in the world who actually thinks this passes for music journalism.

When when when?

When is Saul Williams playing a music-type gig in London next?

I've got to agree

The more you respond, the more ridiculous you look. I just don't understand why you bothered to even mention SFA and Dizzee in your review.

Or...

You could have just not mentioned them, I'm pretty sure there were more than four acts playing.

Just listening to the XFM Tony Wilson tribute

They had one of the blokes from Editors on and when Clint Boon said that Joy Division were an obvious influence on Editors the guy had the bare-faced cheek to say "not a direct influence" What a cock.

It's almost not worth bothering...

But I'm going to.
So you didn't see SFA's set cos you were chatting backstage (cliche or what?), yet they get a 6/10? Brilliant, well done.

We nearly got 100% agreement

There's always one.

I'd love to know about all the bands you like that manage to create music completely free of influences.

I'm going on Friday

but I've heard quite a few negative reviews, and apparently Cross is essentially just the compere, and does very little material.

I'm not suggesting...

They change the beginning and end, just the bit in between! As you say, they've had the same setlist for four or five years now!

As ace as they were...

I really hope they have a complete setlist renovation some time soon. I think I've heard Hello Sunshine and Golden Retriever enough times now. They only played one song each from Fuzzy Logic and Radiator. (Yes I know every fan of every band ever moans about this kind of thing)

The front cover

I thought the cover was particularly cheap and nasty myself, I really can't work out if the Manics have taken complete leave of their senses or are just taking the piss out of everyone now, with the Lennon cover being the final straw

Trouble reading articles?

Is anyone else having persistent problems reading articles on the site lately? I think it's something to do with the ads on the left hand side.

When indeed?!

Why is it always so hard to find info on Bruce tickets? It was the same when he played the Albert Hall.
