I don't mean to sound crass but people die every die. The fact that one poster's sad and untimely death must be shouted from the rooftops underlines the cliquish atmosphere that many have criticized Boreds.ie for in the past. There is an inner circle of protected regulars that are pally with the mo...

Aw, that's terrible. May she rest in peace.

My Bloody Valentine.

The Jesus & Mary Chain in 2014. There were a lot of sound problems, especially with the guitar, so it was rather disappointing.

Similar thing happened when I saw John Cale a couple of years before that. He was getting frustrated himself and didn't bother to do an encore because of it.

An often overlooked album by them. Suppose it doesn't help that it was released just before DSOTM.

"Jack Charlton should have achieved more given the players at his disposal"

Agreed

That won't help his case anyway.

I get not liking them but saying they can't play their instruments is ridiculous.

I'm assuming that's a joke.

I think Barton Fink is one of the best Coen Brothers' movies.

Also, cubism and abstract art was around by 1910 so it doesn't make sense as a comparison either.

Meh, just makes me think of people who complain about modern music and dismissing it just because they're nostalgic about the past.

What do you mean by modern artists?

I've been into a pub for a pint by myself, last Friday.

Yeah, I don't understand that either.

Also, The Mighty Boosh. Again I just didn't get it at all, and I like Noel Fielding's comedy in general, but not this.

Agree about The Mighty Boosh.

Leisure by Blur

I've spent the last few days listening to the second album by Lump (Laura Marling & Mike Lindsay). A very good follow up to their debut and quickly becoming one of my favourites of the year so far.

Ok, thanks for answering.

Slightly off topic but I'm surprised at the number of regular boardsies who have remained "Uncle Tom" like on the other platform and persist with posts that few can find and fewer still bother trying to reply to. The only reason I pop in there several times a day is to view the feedback a...

Shia LaBeouf. I refuse to watch anything he's in.

Listening to a lot of Joni Mitchell recently.
