Anyone...

...still here? I was listening to this:


and stumbled across this Florence And The Machine track:


Excellent. Had seen the odd tip in the press but hadn't had a listen (and I'll admit here and now that initially I thought it was Kate Nash!). I like it when it goes a bit WOOOOOOOAAAAAAR at the end.

Carry on.

* also includes a Hot Chip track remixed by Fake Blood - EPIC WIN :)

    Nice.

    My daughter goes to playgroup with the son of the sister of the bass player in Shed Seven.

    15-all, your serve.

    Oooh, that's good.

    My wife's second-best friend is engaged to the ex-lead singer of Yorkshire indie darlings, The Shanks.

    30-all, new balls please

    Ooh raising the stakes.

    Let's see, I was at 6th form with Guy Garvey from Elbow, and have a photo of him reading poetry in my bedroom in about 1990.

    I think Alison should get two points for that!

    Oh. I see. Playing the old "photo in my bedroom" card, eh?

    Right.

    I went to sound engineering college in 1993 (and subsequently shared a house and started a Leftfield-esque electro-dub band) with an Irish chap who grew up in Derry, next door to Peter Cunnah* from D:Ream.

    * apparently, and I quote, he was "an utter cock"

    @Alex: To be honest, it's pretty hard to beat the Stiltskin sandwiches...

    @fourstar:

    Very true.

    I'd like to join in but my stories are all to great to count ;)

    @Alex: Yes, I know - actually, if you can get me Lauren Laverne's phone number, I'll...







    ...sorry, what was the question again?

    No she never gave me her number...

    She told me to f*ck off, but only by accident.

    @Alex: "Lauren Laverne told me to f*ck off by accident" probably beats "Stilitskin sandwiches". Or does it?

    I sense a Dylan's Teeth Accidental Celebrity Knockout Cup competition? Last 16?

    I would have entirely forgotten the 'Stiltskin sandwiches' story myself, except I once told it to Joe and he reminds me of it at the slightest provocation.

    I'd have told them to fuck off by accident if I'd had the chance.

    I regularly use to drink in the same pub and so p*ss in the same urinals as Dr Feelgood. I also had a beer once with Garry Bushell (when he wrote for Sounds)...
