I was going to also ask why people are 'so much busier these days'.

As for One Up, yes, I'm buying more vinyl now than I have done for years. To get a nice record and mp3 downloads from the card inside is a great thing. CDs though - nope...can't stand them any more.

My favourite album of the year is Cian Ciaran's Outside In - just can't stop listening to it, and that's what being a best album is all about.

Underground Bacon is a sizzling new night featuring some of the best of Scotland's bedroom producers past and present. The bill on the opening night (Sunday, 23rd September) features the video mash-up wizardry of Thriftshop XL (MTV (Europe), The Box, Smash Hits TV, Kerrang! TV, QTV, FHM TV, BBC and STV and resident of La Roche Rumba in Glasgow), Dunproofin' (DJ Hero producer), pomDeter (Aberdeen's top mash-up DJ) and Faither of E-Jitz (the bloke who stuck Jimmy Shand with 50 Cent).

10pm til Late at the Tunnels. Entry: £5 / £3. Freshers get in free and there's a free CD giveaway for the first 100 through the door.

I'm not surprised, that's why I was uncommonly quick this time!

Just bought my ticket - it was the tea towel that swung it.

That's what it's all about - the care and attention. Long may this continue, and thanks!

Hi Stichman, check your inbox - sorry I didn't reply til yesterday.

Picked up a ticket yesterday - and very nice it looks too. A nice change from the standard cardboard prints.

Sounds good, hopefully make it along.

Thanks everyone! I've updated the list with what's been grabbed so far taken out.

Hi everyone, I'm selling my CD collection to fund a spoken word record release. My full list is below and it's pretty much £2 each or 6 for a tenner, but I'm willing to listen to offers as I know CDs are barely worth a jot these days. I can post out if need be, but it'd be better if you could come round and pick them up in person.

Drop me a line if you fancy any of them.

Cheers,

Richie.

Aye, Edgar Prais were really good I thought.

Were Coast (mid-90s around Britpop time) not from up here? I thought they'd go somewhere.

I bought a ticket to Daniel Sloss (upcoming comedian / wee Scottish chap) at the Lemon Tree next Saturday (26th) but I can't go to it now.

It was about 13 including booking fee and the whole gig is sold out now so if anyone wants it for a tenner then let me know: richie@culturedeluxe.com

Cheers,

Richie.

Dutch Uncles who were to be the main support are not playing as their van has broken down apparently! Anyone know what time Sky Larkin will be going on? Don't say in five minutes!

Nice one - they were great last time they were up here.

That implies that he at one time had a voice, which is not the case. He has always been a gash live singer.

Heh heh, true. But there was a time he just about got away with it.

Ace stuff. Loved Errors at the Lemon Tree and keep on managing to miss The Twilight Sad. Count me in.

Oh yes, and here's mine: Culturedeluxe - RockNess 2010

Got some ok pics too. I agree with whoever said Ian Brown was terrible, his band are fine but somebody needs to tell him to give up: his voice has long gone.

I got tickets in Drummonds on Wednesday - there were a couple of posters too.

Are tickets from One Up / on the door priced without the ridiculous 5 service charge? Otherwise I'm not going.

Tsk...Arab Strap's first gig was broadcast on the Evening Session with Steve Lamacq, not Peel. I still have it on tape somewhere.

Nice one on getting the Mondays.

Chapterhouse are back together again by the way (hint hint!)

I fancy popping down to this now. It is indeed a great name for a label.

Just an apostrophe away from being Gerry Love's Records which is what I initially read this as. Any connection there?

Sorry, 22.50 has put me off too. Same with PiL down in Glasgow, just far too much really.
