Just in Video Footage of skate fan leaving the bathroom at nottarf. (Stick with it, it has sub-titles) https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1_BstJzcQNA See what happens when you get fat in the pipes

Good point well made about the internet My youngest formed an Emo band while at school. They found a mate who had a home studio system and recorded what in the old days would have been called a "garage" album. They stuck it on Audiostreet and made it into the top 10 in their genre. That summer they got a record deal from an Indy label in the UK, recorded the album then grew up.... well they all went to different Uni's so never took it further. Point being they got their without A&R or demo tapes. Locally (as I have mentioned before) we have a couple of lads (one's a Saints fan) who have got together, recorded some club type stuff and bingo, they got signed by EMI, released their first single which has been #1 on Itunes in the whole damned region, has reached playlist #1 in UAE & Lebanon and this week they've been filming their first Video & putting down some more tracks for their first album. EMI intend to inflict it on you lot in time for the summer clubbing season, but it has already been picked up and remixed by a number of "names" Again for them it totally would not have been possible without FB & Twitter. They pinged the song out on Social Media, got their mates up and retweeting, sharing etc and woosh. It's actually alright if you're plastered in a club, hum along to on the radion but ain't gonna be on any "epic" cult album.

Have heard a couple of times that Matt is as good or better than Luke but was less "mature" as a footballer at the start of the season. Could be a better cover for Luke on the bench for tomorrow than taxi

Hmm. Wonder if we'll give them a Targett to aim at tomorrow?

Who?

Also, with so many Apps etc available these days, kids are able to make their own music OR their own remixes etc as easily (for them) as we can read a Rallyboy missive on PTS While there is One Direction everywhere (perhaps these days the only people who buy music are kids with their pocket money the rest of us find it free on You Tube) or leave MTV/VH1 on or have the Internet Radio playing at home instead of albums. In fact with the internet & Satellite TV maybe we simply don't sit down of an evening to listen to an album like we used to. In fact how many of us now have "Music Listening" systems rather than TV Sound Systems... One thing I have noticed (maybe because I am over here) is that the much maligned "Stadium Rock/Glam Rock" of the 70's/early 80's is popular - luckily I hear as much Journey or Boston when I travel around as I do One Direction. At the Slash gig 3 weeks ago the average age of the audience was mid twenties (with a few old farts scattered around) & when Alice Cooper came on stage they really did go nuts (and it is still a bigger conversation topic than The Stone Roses gig for example) Simon Cowell is very clever. Kids pay for their new music, they have their Iphones now. When we were their age we had to save for a month to buy an album, or wait for the weekend to buy a new single. Kids today get it now. We had the joy of anticipation, they are the wannitnow generation. Anyways, want to watch real music? Go see The Zucchinis somewhere in the South of England. The more Vodka/Beer they (and you) drink, the better they are with their post-punk rock covers mix.

Oops Dave's gonna be having a bad week then LibDem win UKIP second Tories 3rd Ouch

The local Virgin MegaStore now has a large selection of Vinyl on sale. They are also selling tickets to a gig tomorrow night - 80's Rewind starring Rick Astley, ABC, Heaven 17, Howard Jones & T'Pau. Of those, the only one I would call a real Musician is Jones, having seen him play an unplugged gig about 5 years ago which we STILL rate as one of the best gigs in a pub we have ever seen. Don't blame CD's & Downloads. Blame Stock Aitken & Waterman

You see there they go again. Another legal loophole left open. The Creditors Committee can always have a word with The Administrator, because IF he turns down a real bid that offers a better return? More legal loopholes. I'm gonna get up at the crack of mid morning tomorrow to go buy myself a nice bit of Emmental cheese to go with my Popcorn next week Now, before we go there, one quick question. Who has more experience of Football Club Takeovers PDT or Keith & Orville?
-
Well, blimey. This looks like it could be the biggest gathering of TSW members in one place drinking beers since the Legendary Forum matches at SMS. 5 confirmed members now for beers at Barasti on Saturday. Weekly attendance continues to grow, reckon by the end of the season we'll have more down the pub here than the skates took to some of their PL away games. Thought the whole build up to Newcastle was over confident, so obvious a kick in the teeth was coming. Start with Puncheon Saturday and the passing game will be better, bring on JRod or Mayuka to run them ragged later on. Fonte in for Jos my only other change
-
Oh did I forget to mention about a week after that, the law suits will start rolling in again
-
They'll be fine. They simply have to get control before the end of this season then 20 seconds after the whistle blows they'll have 200,000 queuing round the block to buy their Season Tickets for next year
-
Yep, we should get it here about 4 hours before you lot. I can get my review in just in time to let Bearsy know what the bewb count is Just discovered they were showing Banshee down here - damn you Tokes, we're at Episode 7 why didn't you do your reviews on that earlier.

Here's some vids I made earlier Zep. Obviously I can't open the link because if I do that then the front door gets blown up by a SWAT team. Also,I don't want to give a Mod the pain of having to fly all the way here to give me an infract but this is an interesting page in google search http://search.yahoo.com/search?fr=mcafee&p=sex+with+goat Oh this one is OK to open though See what happens when you try and have Camel Sex? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-476349/Camel-killed-woman-trying-sex-her.html

Look, just leave it out tonight. There is only so much pain and suffering a man can take in one day. Mate calls, two spare tickets for the big 80' Rewind gig here in town tomorrow. I rush home to give the good news to FMDP and she says.. So who's playing? Well Rick Astley & Heaven 17 and ABC and Howard Jones and she says............... Who? Sod you lot, I'm off to listen to Rick's Greatest Hits EP

In May 2011, a resident of Dubai was arrested at Bangkok airport for attempting to smuggle a Bear as carry-on baggage onto a first class flight to Dubai. Bearsy. Why didn't you tell us you were in town? We could have got you an upgrade, didn't need to go to all that trouble
-
On a side note. Interestingly. Carole Yeo @Carolestfc1 So according to sky, Bournemouth have the highest paid squad and manager in League 1 history. All that on an average attendance of 6,620.

May be worth googling around to see whether the newly negotiated TV packages for the PL (especially the Overseas rights value which will make a major jump in income for PL teams NEXT season) have also had an impact on the older outstanding Parachute payments due to all ex PL clubs in the past 4 years.

'fraid so Family photo And of course Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cama_%28animal%29 More interesting Camel facts after a few beers this evening (although i am sure that Eric will be along sometime today to comment on his particular area of expertise, their toes)
-
8.2ml apparently was collected then stuck in a Syringe and squirted in. Unfortunately Eric never mentioned whether he used KY Jel Meanwhile as you so obviously want to try some yourself Perhaps I'll bring a box of Camel Chocs back for the Norwich game.
