Alan Cynic

Disagree with Christy.... I'm disappointed that the Arabs are out... but what a screamer of a goal that did it!

I dare say he doesn't know much about anything.

Enjoyed the Dons game last night. Mawene and Gonzales look like great signings, couldn't really judge Osborne, good to have Foster back, the young guys coming through look good - particularly Robertson - and Pawlett looks like he's going to tear the SPL apart if Villarreal don't put in a bid for him before the window shuts

All this English pish and big money 'will he? won't he?' transfer speculation doesn't interest me. Money, money, money. The SPL is where it's at. Godspeed Saturday! Starting line up for St. Johnstone game?

My thoughts exactly!!!!

Patty Waters 'Black is the colour'

Will do!

She's one of those folk I like in short bursts. I saw her way back when she was in Sugarcubes, and have had a few of

her albums over the years, only to sell them again ( still have Post).

Great news...look forward to reading it:up:

Glad I home record, where the only twattish engineer I have to worry about is me.

Any other Dons fans reckon our signings so far look like just the ticket!? Only 1 tricky forward required to make a damned fine team. My fiver on the Dons for the league doesn't look so daft (well...not quite as daft, maybe).

The above post is the kind of thing I'd like to see more of...maybe part of an A-Z of Aberdeen bands since the 50s. Ideally with photos.

Adam...the Great Scots Musicography was a large format book by Martin Strong. It wasn't overly accurate with my entry either (apparently my career 'went down the plughole in the early 90s'.)

I like that wee beach too! Beginning to find the path a bit hairy though....auld manny thing!

I've seen them live, and been on the same bill as Malcolm Middleton once at Tunnels and Bill'n'Aidan at Tryptych. But, like you, I've only really got into their music more recently. I have got a cool cdr of them live in Sweden, if you'd like a copy?

Lou Reed 'Nobody but you'

I already PMd with the same message.

Double lunch time Rosemount stalk - Alan Cynic (I think) walking past Sainsbury's whilst putting on a black Thinsulate bunnet followed by Graham Knight walking past the Barber's Pole in standard white shirt/black trouser combo.

Good one.... I was doing my Rosemount charity shops trawl, but inwardly moaning that I'd forgotten my reading specs.

Me, me!!!

Yeah...big 'high-five' to you!

For some reason I love neepheid's post above!

I just don't know why.

2 pretty decent guitarists from Aberdeen...Billy Bremner and Dave Flett.

Everything started round about here... first air-breathimg thing to crawl from the sea was frm Stoney, as was Rabbie Burns' dad. Plus Elvis' family came fromhereabouts.

Happy - 'Good morning Mr Walker' (Joseph Spence)

Sad - 'So strange is man' (Lal Waterson)

Angry - 'How I learned to love the bomb' (TVPs)

Sleepy - 'Gnossienne 4' (Satie)

If Don Quixote was ever so gay

He'd play with the boys every day

And then he would dance-a

With wee Sancho Panza

And roger his ringpiece away

next..... If Cliff Richard was a devil worshipper

I would question that response!

There was a wee lad called Oor Wullie

Whose hair looked exceedingly silly

So he plastered it well with some foul-smelling gel

Now instead of being spiky it's hilly.

next topic.....wasps

oops....too late!...how's about Cameron Diaz and a wasp?

I found mine in an old family photo album...also used him on a Matricarians cover.

Californian DJ Don Campau plays 2 dangerlamb? and 1 Kitchen Cynics one on his latest show on KOWS FM (and in Europe on Webradio Radio Marabu - das Webradio mit Europes alternative Music )

He's also podcast the show here...

Yep...an excellent film (Pan's Labyrinth). Watched Mystic River last night....didn't impress me as much as it did Luke 1976, but still a good watch, with a great cast. Although well-acted I wasn't particularly surprised by the plot.
