Well I remember the joy that Record Shops used to be BeeP, but I don't go there now, though I hear their song.....
Welcome back gorgeous, you look fantastic tonight!

I heard NMA - Over The Wire on National radio here yesterday evening when we went to the video shop! It's amazing what a tour can do for a band.

Occasionally they come here, but not very often.
I could probably count the number of really good international acts I've seen without having to take of my shoes. Things are looking up though and a few agents are starting to bring undeground acts here.

Don't like record shops? Buy it all off the internet? Not for me I'm afraid. Hate having to wait for things to arrive through the post. And there's nothing like browsing the sales at HMV and Virgin to find several good excuses to spend more money you haven't got.

I like both.
For something new that I know I want then online is the best way but I still like to browse around the shops as well. For all that, CDs will never be as satisfying as vinyl. Just doesn't smell right.
And you kids with your downloads..well I guess I will have to catch up with you sometime, but I like something to hold.
