NME or NDE?

Near Meth Experience—a band, but also a fine play on words. The actual term, NDE, or Near Death Experience, is real. I had one.
And I’ll say this.

If you’ve ever wronged someone:
Ask for forgiveness.
Make amends.

And be sure to do so before you die.

“Life is short and love is … “

Ah you rode the beast - one of many. Glad you made it back.

And even if you don't have a near death experience, your advice is true for all - who believe they have a soul.

Thanks. Actually though, I was sent back.
Not so much one of many, as one at all.

I always preferred Sounds to the NME personally. In fact I'd rather have Melody Maker than the NME.

Near Meth Experience, not New Music Express; but hey, I’d choose Melody Maker, too.

The Maker always seemed to be friendly towards the Sisters. Unlike the NME or was that more Eldritch's distain for them

Very clever. :lol:
There’s a new movie out called, “After Death.”
I guess this topic is establishing its own genre.

The same NME that used the description (I forget which Sisters song) of 'like a goblin being sick into a bucket' and the same NME whose editor kept a fax saying (and I paraphrase) 'happy headache' as their single chartered. Perhaps a love/hate relationship.

I too was a 70's 'Sounds' guy, but moved gradually to the NME via Melody Maker.

Living in, or around Leeds for major parts of my life I've also had a few NME live experiences.

New-style Manilla Envelopes? I doubt Eldritch has sent a paper letter since 2005.

So you mean Neural Meningital Encephalitis? He's just had the flu... 8)

Actually, writing “paper” letters is quite an art. I’ve seen some great calligraphy that no computer could ever match. :wink:
