In literature there are loads of famous first lines.... but less so with songs (I think) which is surprising to me. I'm not a big fan of Happy Mondays but, to start this thread off, is there a better first line than "Son I'm thirty, I only went with your mother cos she's dirty"? Maybe there is...

I always think that Die Antwoord were very influential. More so than people talk about. After they came out with their saffa scum bag shtick you started getting equivalents from all over. Oirish plastic pikeys revelling in their dirtiness.. Russians playing at being gopniks There must be...

For whatever reason I've been listening to some Paul Simon lately and it struck me that - as far as I know - we have no thread about these guys even thought they are probably much much bigger than your favourite band unless your favourite band is the Beach Boys and Led Zeppelin combined or...

At my parents' house and they induced me to watch a documentary about birds of prey, there was a bit where they went to the garden of this guy who had owls visiting recently and he wore a t-shirt that said The Owls Are Not What They Seem. So what are they then? Why are they so important? I...

Who knows anything about this guy? American in Victorian London. From what I've read he was a very interesting character, regularly bested Oscar Wilde in battles of wits, his signature was a butterfly with a scorpions tale which is pretty fucking cool..... I like the story of him decorating for...

How come GB always does so well in this? Apparently they were second in the medal table last time round and they are second again now. What does it mean that they are outperforming bigger countries - eg and also ie the US - that outperform them in the Olympics?

No names here please, don't want to turn into actual bullying threat.... But, how would you respond to this delicate little tease wich was whispered coquettishly into my ear as I slid between the sheets for the first time with a genuinely beautiful woman... 'I'm sorry if my asshile feels...

That is a badly worded title question, and i think that the reason for that is cos the language to discuss it properly basically doesn't exist - possibly through design. But I mean this as a genuine question. How does one go about pursuing someone they like and making them like you? And, once...

Harrison IV and Idle Rich return to Desterro for Raiders of the Lost DARC part XI - from 11pm until 4am free entry to members, see you there.

Inspired by @WashYourHands mentioning the famous bit in Midnight Cowboy when Dustin Hoffman shouted "I'm walking here" at a car that almost hit him during the filming of a scene and they left it in the film. What else though? Off the top of my head I think of Marlon Brando putting on a glove...

Anyone read the above? I saw someone on a podcast being interviewed and this guy (dunno who he was) went on and on about it as though it was something properly special. He seemed to have had his mind completely blown by the experience of reading it, sold it as a kinda indescribable mindbending...

There are a load of songs I like in this genre however you calm it; Fuck Me On The Dance floor, Let Me Bang, that Every Freaking Day one.... basically all the obvious famous ones that you hear all the time. Thing is, outside of those kinda things are there any other real poptastic bangers? It...

Yes we made it to episode ten, these last few nights have really been hitting the vibe we want, get down there from about 11pm to hear Harris and I smashing the fuck out of the place with loads of ebm, acid and dark electro until 4am or more...

Wake up sheeple! Film night is back at Ocio_lx this Wednesday and it's your chance to break away from the herd (flock, whatever) and join a smaller, cooler and downright better herd of people including Chooprakov, Igor Milosevic, Bhardwaj Raghav and myself - people who have opened their minds by...

On a Thursday this time for some reason... Idle Rich and Harrison IV are back again at Desterro, boshing out the usual mixture of acid, ebm and I dunno what. From about 10pm until 4am... Last few nights have been rocking and all the omens point to this one being a killer too.

Idle Rich and Harrison IV are back once again, slithering around in the dark where we belong, illuminating it every now and again with a blinding energy flash of acid ebm electro or new beat...

I guess this (or something like it) had to happen eventually. Now I haven't seen this yet - have any of you lot? - but from what Taras says, it looks pretty interesting and I'm planning to catch it. It's this account is what I'm saying
