Picked this up on the back of the Armchair Dancefloor column...
...last week. And it is indeed very good.
It's split fairly evenly between Tom and Hayden now...
...you must like Tom's voice, surely?!
I was listened.
Yeah. It's been that sort of day.
SORTED.
M'dear.
The Weight Of The Stars!
Knew I'd forgotten one...
Guess they didn't want to go for Edinburgh...eh?
East Kilbride?
HOLY FUCK SHIT!
!!!
Though not sure it would have been fitting with the rest of it.
Still, looking forward to each one of these. Obv Ruby Tuesday has to make it on for tomorrow and Big Friday for Friday...are you going to do a Saturday one, because The Saturdays would just have to go on for that.
Hmmmm indeed.
Maybe we should just end every sentence about Radiohead with a question mark? That way we'd only be asking questions as opposed to saying anything is true or not?
And, having looked round...
...the other vendors seem to be applying similar levels of booking and collection fees.
!!!
Different writers who review for the same publication MAY HAVE VARYING OPINIONS ON MUSIC!!!!!!
It was ruddy brilliant.
I couldn't stop grinning. The way the whole place was set up, with the lights, the smoke, the backdrop, the balcony was pretty much perfect.
If you can't have faith in YOUR OWN opinion...
...then whose opinion are you going to bloody well have faith in?
Actually...
...Clinic are headliners for that ate. But still...
But IS there a consensus?
I've heard more than enough people slag it/her/them.
TBQFH
You could not have a piece like this WITHOUT Papa Roach in it. Innit.
Quite right. I have no idea what made it come out like that. I think the image was fucked somehow...
...as it wouldn't load up in the first place.
SHIT.
So they are. I did see that on the MySpace when looking through. Oh, Esquires, how I miss you. I'll go back one day, I'm sure.
Added it, anyway.
Did they play in Herefordshire and Cornwall on the same day?!
I'm convinced that's a typo, though...but perhaps not.
This is like some weird variant on Catchphrase.
Is it SPACE JAM?!
CRAINE!
:D
IS THIS NEWS?!
Not any more...
Fair point.
That paragraph was fairly dreadful.
Q: What the fuck does Thom Yorke look like?
A: Worzel Gummidge.
Have listened to it once so far, just starting the second listen.
Think it will grow on me. Not massively enjoying it at the moment but there's some nice touches every now and then.
Reckon it's wide open this year...
Not sure whoever is on the panel will choose Kasabian. At least, that's my hope. They will at least want to appear cutting egde, won't they?
That Gomez record is fucking awful.
But you may be right about the other ones, but it comes down to what you expect the Mercury Prize to be. Is it rewarding unrewarded talent or is it just THE BEST BRITISH ALBUMS OF the given time period with more than half an eye on what is quite mainstream, bar the Jazz act.
Really, the Mercury isn't very cutting edge. But we knew that anyway, didn't we?
WHAT IS THE POINT OF THE JAZZ ENTRY?
Someone tell me?
I think Mr Lukowski may just have struggled a bit to listen to Sonic Youth in 1981.
...but well done anyway.
"Or because you were unable to make it as a musician and had to settled for second best, as it were"
That is probably the LEAST valid question EVER.
Even if you think this is the most important thing in the world...
to go into this level of detail is a complete waste of everyone's time.

You don't know my mum very well.
All she listen to is Motown and Whitney Houston. She would not like this.
