    Yes had some mad ones at Slough Centre...in Farnham Road not far from that record shop which everyone used use to know as Slough Imports (forgot the real name) and which also went back into the dawn of time. Can't help you with the name of the other night at Valbonnes I was up in town most of...

    thought I better see what this Nu-rave bollocks was all about and ended up to my horror on the NME site (a review of the Klaxons album)....and for sheer hasnt got a clue, head up his own arse complete and utter fuckery this piece by some arsehole by the name of Alex Miller has to be seen to be...

    "10,00 Drug Crazed Youths" - 2007 style

    The "ecstasy wrappers" were in actuality pieces of the decorations that had fallen onto the floor...don't know where the Sun got the pigeons from though. This was of course "describing" the big Sunrise Midsummer Night Party in June 1989 which can coincidentally be seen in all its...

    Went to Passion a few times when it was still in Maidenhead (at Valbonnes which used to put on a lot of jazz/funk/soul nights on pre-88). As far as I remember Judge Jules (!) was the main man at Passion I used to think it was more or less his night...when it was at Maidenhead anyway...never...

There sick too death of being kept awake every night (at least this was at the weekend but...

    Arctic Monkeys Explosion.

    I think the north-east must be very different from down here (and in Lancashire) the 2 places I have experience off (and no I'm not personally over 60!). Yes I know they're desperate to attract punters hence the fact that at the rate they're presently shutting it's thought there wont be any left...

    Arctic Monkeys Explosion.

    The same feeling they inspire in me...as though their manager/Domino Records/Alex Turner whoever sit down and carefully calculate everything to show how "authentic" they are. When anyone with any nous who doesn't want to be conned can see straight through it. I find this "Sheffield as a theme...

    Arctic Monkeys Explosion.

    Unanimous appreciation in Sheffield is hardly something conveyed by a quick look at the poll on sheffieldforum.co.uk and even on the threads on there solely about them... But whatever it's still derivative shit of the worst kind..the triumph of hype over substance...(fitting in some ways that...

    Arctic Monkeys Explosion.

    Total fakes singing about stuff they know nothing about to backing tracks that sound like b-sides from 1978-79. If this band were from London the piss would be ripped so completely that theyd be a standing joke. ie imagine a band from somewhere like Barnet who's parents are all teachers etc...
