    Happiness Outside the Prem - from Oliver Holt's column in The Mirror published today

    Happiness outside of the Prem I went to Roots Hall on Saturday to watch Southend United play Stockport County in the first round of the FA Cup. It was £10 to get in at the away end, the stewarding was friendly and efficient, the interaction between the two sets of fans was good-natured and...

  4. The Shrimp Toothbrush

    Battle of the albums special! I've revived this thread as a salute to the albums that have made it through to the semi's! Oasis, Nirvana, The Pixies and of course, the MIGHTY Stone Roses have pushed aside the lumbering dinosaurs of The Beatles and Pink Floyd, the freak show that is Jackson, and...

    Best cover songs??

    There have been some classic cover songs and some god awful ones, being a hugely obsessed Bowie fan i hate it when his songs are covered but i had to take my hat of to Nirvana when they covered Bowie's "The Man who sold the World" Also really liked Guns and Roses version of "Knocking on Heavens...
  7. MK's Indie Club when he should be revising....

    Ok, a great rock-out choon today, inspired by last weeks Metal Monday. Perfect to listen to while you're eating your Chorizo Prawny thingy that Dave can whip up for you. From the so-called "Seattle scene" of the early 90's that brought us Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden here's a band who...
  8. Indie Disco!

    Completely forgot! Here's two tunes, one bloody obviously one of the finest tunes ever to be laid down....I've got many a bruise from Toothbrush moshing to Nirvana....a more obscure track is from World Of Twist and Sons of The Stage.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgEw_YtfxYM

    The Dave thread

    Plenty time spent on the train Saturday, so plenty time to come up with some nonsense talk. Anyway, two Dave-related themes came up. At one point, I suggested that the day when Channel 4 do a list show called "Top 100 people called Dave" was probably not far away (seeing as they do these list...
  10. Xfm's inaugural hall of fame line-up

    Over the last few weeks Xfm have had a totally open vote to get a shortlist of 5 bands/artists to head up their first ever 'hall of fame' type of event. The suggestion was to vote for the 1 band/artist you think has shaped the music that sums up the station (modern alternative music, in...
  11. 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die

    Just heard about this book that was published late last year - some strange choices and (IMHO) some glaring ommisions. That said, I own 293 of these and have heard a further 108 giving me a respectable total of 401. To be honest, dying would be a favourable option to hearing most of the others...

    One Hundred Albums ...

    Interesting nominations at www.jaguaro.org A few "eyebrow raisers": Nirvana - Nevermind "Yeah, yeah - I realize that this is the one that broke grunge's doors wide open and made Seattle a place to be reckoned with. Are we sure that's good? At best, Nevermind is an...
  13. Grunge

    Following on from the 'New Romantic' thread and moving on a decade, did the grunge scene do anything for you? Personally I think Nirvana were one of the best bands ever - truly inspirational and a shot in the arm for the music industry when it was desperately needed. Sadly they led the...
