If you listen to Steely Dan (and the lyrics) then you will be educated in the art of great songwriting.

Also Dirty Work is on the Sopranos, so you know it is cool

You should listen for a true musical education. I also forgot about the legendary song that is Deacon Blue purely for it's cracking lyrics.

Thanks. Do you have an opinion on Steely Dan? Jimmy Page I believe agreed with me about reelin' in the years having the greatest guitar solo. They may have been before your time so if you haven't heard of them, educate yourself.

Probably my favourtie band ever. IMO they have everything, memorable songs, fantastic guitar solos and they actually set out to make intelligent songs which have a point rather than the majority of bands nowadays who churn out any old bland cr*p for the money. Some of my favourties include: Reelin' in The Years- Best guitar solo ever. Great song about reminiscing and looking back on life. Do It Again- One of their more well known songs just a classy and cool song. Barrytown- I like it because it's a bit different. Dirty Work- I love David Palmer's vocals. It works really well and the irony of two blokes singing a song from the perspective of 'the other woman' is typical of the band. My Old School- Great little upbeat song. Fantastic to play whilst speeding around in the summer. Black Friday- Shows their diversity and the dark subject matter of this and some of their other songs is pretty cool. Makes a change from most bands who just sing about love. I've probably forgotten a few as well. IMO the diversity of their work is amazing and whilst I have never seen them live, I am told by my father that they were brilliant. Unfortunately, when you bring them up in conversation, a common comment is 'who is Steely Dan?' It seems that they are unappreciated by some which is a shame. I think I prefer that they aren't as mainstream as some of the iconic seventies bands but I reckon they are better. Does anyone else love their music like I do?

Verbal reaffirming his status as the most condescending poster on any web forum since the beginning of the internet I see.

I laughed.

The counterfeiter is my favourite. Watch it if you can.

Yes on the forum which is for banter and light hearted chat. What has that got to do with anything on the main board? It went well anyway thanks for asking.

Yep. He is such a hypocrite it's actually rather amusing.

All systems go

out in a bit will let you know how it goes

im not im considering my options for tonight thanks for the advice

Is there ever an instance where it is ok

It isn't on the way.

Superb post as always Minty.

This. I utterly agree. Anyway, this forum is a victim of its own success. Of course the place was funnier when it first started but obviously when more people join it becomes more mainstream. It's why I lament places like b-anter passing because that was actually amusing and worth a read.

FFS bad mood all weekend now.

They don't have an agreement in place (or at least nothing which would compromise their independence) so it's irrelevant.

Steve has clarified above and yes the accusations were major because they amount to libel (something which Steve pointed out to me privately). Anyway that is the end of the matter. Thanks to Steve.

Cheers Steve.

Those two statements sort of contradict each other. If anything, nick getting his ticket revoked shows how seriously the club takes forum matters.
