This sucks
It would be a crying shame if they close the West End since to be honest there's fuck all else to do in Aldershot except get pissed or get beaten up by squaddies. I went to the Westie several times including the excellent comedy nights they held there and I remember seeing JJ72 there years ago and astonishingly they were very good. If that's not reason enough to keep it going I don't know what is!
I dunno
i really dunno about this, it could be amazing but then again it could be shite. depends if dicky's ego gets in the way. last time i saw the verve was january '97 at brixton. it was amazing. mind you i was stoned off me tits at the time. :)
the cribs / frank & walters
do they sound alike? no, the cribs are just fucking awful... plus I bet they don't look so hot in straw hats and blazers as the franks' did at Glasto '92.
Not named after Senser offshoot...
but a village near Newmarket. Sort of. Looks alright this. Then again...
Terrible
Probably the worst Glasto line up in history. Fact.
the long blondes 10 out of 10?
really? mmm...
there are some very strange choices on here
some incredibly strange choices. mmm...
why should i try?
to even bother submitting a post about these cretins? fuck me, they're shite.
Hurrah
A band I actually like play Cambridge! Thank fuck for that!
sigh
that is all.
style over substance
norton hang your head in shame
christ on a freewheeling bike
just look at that list.
GO ON! LOOK AT IT!
What a bunch of tossers!
Yet another reason to hate America...
...and James Blunt.
Cunts.
All of 'em.
i saw the carling weekender on tv...
and, muse aside, it was largely shite.
jk is a twunt
thanks for clearing that up but why did you bother going to this festival? why waste writing so many words about the twat in a hat when you could have told us about longcut, jamie liddell, cut copy etc instead?
emi
sent me three copies of this. i threw 'em all in the bin. they're probably being picked at by seagulls on a rubbish tip somewhere.
10/10?
I don't think so.
my washing machine makes more interesting noises.
ah i see...
'twas confused. must be my age...
blimey
something decent from a new cambridge band? whatever next? the visions get a record contract?
i remember ned's...
...being chased across a field at Glastonbury '92 by some bloke on stilts dressed as a robot. no i wasn't on drugs at the time. this actually happened.
i think ned's are a bit shit tho'.
hey DiS kids...
...the reason you can't buy records is cos the vast majority of you are a bunch of lazy, non-working students.
get a job. earn money. buy records. it really is that simple. mind you some of the rubbish that's plugged on here really isn't worth your money.
it were all fields around here in my day.
anthony
aged 33 and 1 month. officially 'old' apparently. which is bollocks.
bring back shirley bassey
'Goldfinger' & 'Diamonds Are Forever' are sheer class.
brilliant review
particularly the bit about kicking a puppy. i don't condone animal cruelty but in this case let the kicking begin! :)
i 'heart' the broken family band
they're the fucking best.
the modern are
fucking rubbish.
no fucking cambridge date!
that means a train journey to hell. otherwise known as peterborough. well worth it though methinks.
that alex turner
is a right little diva apparently... and anyway they're not from sheffield they're from huddersfield. that's what i was told anyway.
Pram Face Alert!
pram face! pram face! pram face! PRAAAAAAAAAAM FAAAAACE!
The Like look nice...
... but sound utter shite. The Sundays were waaay better anyway.
i like the crimea
they are ace. if anyone's interested they did a brilliant version of this single and a swoonsome take on fleetwood mac's 'everywhere' on radio 2 on saturday night. check it out here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/dermot/
here's my top 10...
1. Antony & The Johnsons - I Am A Bird Now

go see ...tank
be amazed. they were awesome in cambridge. my ears hurt for days after. always the sign of a good gig that y'know.
with the exception of elbow...
...what a load of old shite
miles hunt
his name rhymes with something rude for a reason you know... and the stuffies were and indeed still are utter shite.
oh and just for the record i'd be very surprised if it's the original wonder stuff touring cos they all hate each other. fact.
hampshire
i used to live there you know. in basingstoke of all places. awful, awful place.
I like this
I really do. I think some of you are tone deaf.
So there.
re: the soundhaus stole a lot of the trade...
...the reason the soundhaus is doing so well is partly down to the promoters, the very same people who did an excellent job at the roadmender until they were, according to the local rumour mill, 'kicked out'. feel free to correct this of course!
disgraceful but...
...inevitable. true, the roadmender has been the venue for some exciting gigs & theatre (the polyphonic spree being a personal fave) but if you're going to start charging punters £10 to see 65daysofstatic one does wonder what's going on.
still, it's bloody shame. can jo whiley not put her hand in her pocket? she must be loaded! :)
re: stagger lee's comment
'he wants to.. fuck you with an armadillo'
i'm up for that. how much?
when i hear the strokes...
...particuarly julian wotisface's voice, i just can't help but mimic vic reeves' northern club singer.
oh and the new single is a complete rip off of the eighties matchbox b-line disaster. Fact.

Mmm...
...saw TSDOLE in Cambridge last week and I couldn't get past the fact the frontman's hair appears to be on loan from Toploader. That and the yelping put me right off.
