What are you playing tonight?

[Beefheart]

40 years on & still the best guitarist ever ... & the best rock voice.

Nah. You're wrong. Sorry.

[KeyserSoze]

Bit of Nick Drake to put me in a reflective mood.

Going through a few covers by the Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain. top stuff.

In that case you may, or may not, like this - it's by the Portsmouth Sinfonia. A classical ensemble with varying levels of skill amongst the players. It's from the early 70's and there's lots more from them, but this is a good opener

[Bruce Rioja]

I see that him that was in Home Alone got booed off in Nottingham. Apparently his 'band' do Velvet Underground covers but change the lyrics to pizza references and play Kazoos. This begs two questions;

1/ How did they get the gig in the first place?

2/ What were the audience expecting?

[Prufrock]

My housemate saw him by chance in Hackney a couple of weeks ago. Said it was 'spectacularly surreal'. That kid is all f*cked up.

I'm presuming the woman is Billy the Kid. She's very irritating in a number of ways: firstly her name, secondly her voice is a bit shit in an irritating way, but thirdly and most irritatingly her body language in that video is so very "oo aren't I arty".

You're very easily irritated LLS!
Looking forward to this gig a lot. Still not been in Gorilla.

I am possibly the most easily irritated person on the planet. What irritates me most is that I've not been recognised for this fact. An OBE for Services to Irritation is the least some fecker could do, although a one off Nobel Prize for Irritability would be preferable.

Listened to a bit of their stuff. Right up my street, shame I missed them unless I get to Download last minute!

Do radio productions count? Cos for the first time I've actually listened to the Orson Welles War of the Worlds adaptation. It's well(es) good.
