  1. "The venue will be open from 8.30am to 11pm, giving musicians the chance to perform morning, afternoon or evening, and the varied times are expected to appeal to students, retired musicians and accomplished school groups and touring artists."
  2. The verb 'to sex' or 'sexing' - refers to determining the gender(sex) of something. Has always been a bona fide verb. You learn something new everyday........although the phrase 'sex a budgie' does make me snigger!
  3. Well as I understand it - Apple Computers had an agreement with the Beatles that they would stay out of music - Apples Founder named the computer company after the beatles record label. Apparently a court battle ensued and there was an agreement the Apple Computers would stay out of Music - Well iTunes and the iPod happened - and another court battle. thats probably why they aren't called 'apple tunes' or 'apple pods'?
  4. Try some Beat Takeshi - his films are very entertaining, sometimes brutal and uncompromising but retaining a sense of humour!
  5. I've got the Timothy Treadwell book at home and wanted to see this film but didn't manage to catch it. He'd had a fairly turbulent life before he went to live with the bears and felt as though he had a real connection with them, but just got a little too close and let his guard down. You just can't mess about with 1,000lbs of bear really!
  6. Anyone else going to this gig on tuesday - should be a great night! Check out Miss Atlanta on myspace www.myspace.com/missatlantamusic
  7. Try www.alternativenation.net or www.edinburgh-music.com
  8. Yeah, I thought that was a little incongruous myself.
  9. Shocking figures indeed, but not that much of a stretch of the imagination to see why people are becoming disillusioned with conventional politics. Quite simply it seems there's a feeling of being let down, promises being broken and liberties being taken. BNP policies include lowering taxes, asylum clampdown and zero tolerance for anti-social behaviour...........................now, stop me if you think that you've heard all this already! Personally, I'd rather take my chances with any of the other main political parties. Even thinking of voting BNP as a protest vote would be playing with fire!
  10. Ha, I didn't realise you had recorded this tune so long ago! It just reminded me a wee bit of BoC, that's all...................i'm probably not very good with musical comparisons to be honest.
  11. Exactly, the treatment of smoking related illnesses bear a heavy burden on the nhs - therefore, you should pay more tax! It certainly does not entitle you to more treatment then anyone else. On a similar note, perhaps junk food should carry more tax as well due to its contribution towards heart disease and obesity...................just a thought!
  12. Porage made with skimmed milk and soft brown sugar (makes it taste like flapjack).........a warm hearty breakfast for these terribly cold mornings.
  13. Are you getting some sweet deal on the rent there or something? If so, you may have to put up and shut up. If not, then why the hell are you putting up with that shit? As for calling the council/raking up past misdemeanors(?sp)..............what's the point. Take the higher ground. I'm sure she'll realise why you are moving out when you eventually do!
  14. these two are my personal faves.................wouldnae be messin wi them like! http://www.budzbar.co.uk/gallery/large/270106.021.htm http://www.budzbar.co.uk/gallery/large/feb.056.htm
  15. Somehow I don't think the demo really does your music any justice, which is a shame.
  16. Was well freaky, I nearly didn't go to work because of it......................too scary!
  17. Understood. Same thing happened when I posted up the DigitalSin thread.........many views, little response! Granted, you can't force people to have an opinion but I was under the impression that opinions were generally forthcoming on here, we were looking for thoughts, feelings and opinions good or bad, just something to go on really. Anyways, don't stop posting up your sounds man, you've obviously put a lot of work into them and they deserve to be heard as much as anyone elses!
  18. That's where i hail from, aherm........ Yeah, sad but true!
  19. Has a lovely ethereal, other-wordly quality................
  20. Always thought his voice was a little too whiney, but hey......
