Heartland

I would DM you but the last time I tried that you totally blanked me mate

Can I play? The covers I listen to regularly are the KissKass remixes. Some are pants but a lot are very enjoyable Then there are these https://youtu.be/BF3yLqAo4J4 https://youtu.be/xf0qtR5AQGo Yeah these fall under the hateful ‘straight’ cover song. Other than synth bass and some thick pad sounds I...

My 0.02 For any overseas media transactions I find the trusty VPN invaluable. For ex: every June a very long motor race happens in France. Eurosport covers said race in its entirety. Sadly coverage here in cultural wasteland of the new world race cars only turn left. Using the VPN I’m able to make a...

BOOH was the first rock album I ever bought with my own money. Will always have a soft spot in my heart.

Hey now hey now now

And a hey Nonny nonny for good measure

Speaking of Spotify:

Excellent resource. Cheers.

Here’s a thought, if everyone who hates Spotify actually stopped using it maybe, just maybe, they’d lose a ton of users, their stock would plummet and the might die and go away. But hey, laziness rules.

Wife and I got jab 1 of Moderna. 4hrs a bit sleepy. 8hrs arm stiff as hell, 28hrs it hit me like a wave out of the blue. Like the worst hangover, lightheaded, dizzy. Slept it off for 2 hours, like nothing happened. Bit sleepy for a couple of days after. Waiting for the real test of the second jab in...

You guys just come off as very judgemental. Not trying to be confrontational, but just like... be aware of how you treat others, and why it is that you feel these people are lesser than you for enjoying the same thing but in a different way.
Elitism isn't dead.

the band play to at least 250K people but none of the social media groups has more than fifteen thousand members, They play to 250k PEOPLE not 250k fans because, for reasons of ego, TSOM are a festival band “we don’t play small venues, so don’t look for us in your po dunk town” How many of those 25...

One Irish food I must try - Rich tea Biscuits with butter. Apparently every Irish person knows this snack!!!

I used to do plain digestives with butter (not margarine, proper salty butter). Was quite teasty in a sweet and salty kinda way

If anyone knows how to snag a YouTube video these days as all the ones I used to use have gone bye bye, I have izotope rx that does this sort of restoration. Nothing to lose I guess

I loved the Transmissions podcast. But then again anything JD related floats my boat to be fair. I listen to a few different one's (while running or walking the dog). Unexplained is probably my favourite. The Harrowing is worth a listen, as The New Yorker fiction pod. Great recommends. Checked them...

Mfw I just wondered whether The Orb have covered that song Great choice though.

I Drove All Night was a belter of a Roy Orbison song, made popular by Cyndi Lauper. I couldn’t find any reference to The Orb version on YouTube so I couldn’t compare. Don’t know if it’s the same belter

I got as far as looking at flights, but they all come with the warning that 10 days quarantine is required prior to entry. No exceptions for vaccinated folks. Are we thinking that this will change by September or are you all not subject to the same restriction? Yeah same. Reckon by then a lot will ...

I know it's a bit more complicated, but if common cold is an argument for winning natural selection then why not cancer? :wink: Because cancer isn’t a viral infection 😜 Must say that's pretty good argument. :notworthy: My bad, mea stupidity. Hell no not at all. I was being kinda flippant. I don’t k...

How many of you use Spotify? Don’t! Spotify is not in the music business. They don’t care about bands, or fans of bands. They dress up their product to look like “unlimited music for fans of music” But really what its bottom line is Data Spotify is owned by Facebook who’s business model is owning ev...

Love some Steven Wilson

The telling thing will be if anything does happen on the anniversary. It is clearly a date that has meant something to someone over the years. I was talking with the former Ms Swinnow, who attended the 1991 and 2001 dates, and she semi-jokingly suggested the band use this year's date to announce a ...

Much appreciated. Vol. II is underway. The whole chapter on the recording of FALAA I don’t think I agreed with one word. Do you mean the book's criticisms of the album's production in the recording chapter? Or do you mean the lyric analysis chapter? Just curious. I've been slightly disappointed tha...

is this Ramirez? aha! i see from the img location it is.

Yes correct. I’ll admit I never heard of him before this show. My wife grew up in 80s LA so remembers a lot of the events. It was all new to me.

I was once at a gig at Post Haste in Wakefield where some joker kept his hand on the button of the smoke machine for over 10 minutes. There wasn't even a band on stage, it was between sets. You could barely see your hand in front of your face.

It does feel sad to think that the 40th anniversary should come and go without any sort of fanfare.
What about some kind of online Heartland event?

something could be doable eh? i dunno, i reckon Quiff Boy could DJ for an hour or so playing 80's goth classics.

Fantastic idea

Didn’t find a thread for pods, and it’s a medium I enjoy a lot. I’m not necessarily cutting a rug to them, so it wouldn’t go there. I’m not necessarily watching them, so it wouldn’t go there either. And I’m obviously not reading them (other than the show notes) so it wouldn’t fit there. Anyway, I’ve...
