I don't think it'll make the slightest bit of difference to One Up.

The thing that's killing One Up isn't competing stores on Union Street, it's competing stores on the internet.

Can't really deny that losing a high-street competitor is bad for One Up, though, really.

That said I'll be quite sad to see HMV go, even if I'm only there to rake through their rock/pop section.

Is the one next to HMV a Waterstones? I thought it was Ottakars.

Been a Waterstones for almost a year (probably longer). And yeah, either that or the one on that corner will probably turn into a Tesco or something.

Hey

I'm looking for a xylophone or a glockenspiel for, well, musical things.

I'm not paying the 150-odd Bruce Millers were asking for one though.

PM me if you've got one spare/gathering dust, cheers x

PMd, even if I'm not a "band" per se.

under Marks & Spencers pretty much (walk along the path next to M&S on the Union St side, down the hill right next to it and its along at the end of the dark tunnel)

Im shit at directions though so maybe go with Google Maps

Nah, that's spot on. Just look right as you approach Markies' front entrance and you'll see the hill.

the national - high violet, hot chip - one life stand, lcd soundsystem - this is happening are probably my three most played from 2010

I really wanted to like Hot Chip's one. Really did. ):

Love the Independent. They wonder why their sales are dropping but continue to churn out this gash daily.

Aye it was a boxing day release though I saw it in Jan 2010 and enjoyed it very much. Still wouldn't give it a placing in my top 10 I doubt though...

Was it? Could have sworn I saw it in the summer... obviously not

Nah, me neither. Nice to look at but the plot and dialogue were pants.

I find it interesting that noone has mentioned Avatar.. Personally never seen it because I think it looks like a giant pile of balls but I thought it was generally very popular?

Released last year matey

Going to see Harry Potter tomorrow so will see if it's any good then.

Other than Inception I really laxed on the film front this year...

Is it bad I already have a list sorted for 2011?

Is Thatcher on it?

I WAS RIGHT

(on a vaguely related note, did you get my facebook message?)

Not heard of these "A Nice Cup of Tea" chaps but they sound FANTASTIC.

May as well go on and talk out my arse for a bit

My website is foxhunting . I don't have photos of me. Why don't I have photos? I've had one gig and nobody there had a camera. I'm not getting my mate to photograph me with a guitar in my bedroom either, it just doesn't really reflect my music (in my opinion, of course) and frankly the only photograph that would is live - and if you haven't played live, where the hell are you getting a photo from?

I guarantee if I listed influences they'd be the same as everyone else in my genre, so what's the point? It'd be a list of favourite bands, for the most part, anyway.

And I thought the idea of album art was to provide artistic context for music? If you want to see their faces, see them live.

And I like to know who their "top friends" are, because they my actually be good.

Assuming everyone's got MySpace is probably not the best thing to do in 2010.

Merry Christmas, right back at you.

Ahh, that's cool. It's nice that you've thought about it fits a narrative. That's interesting.

The CDs been in my car for a few weeks so it's been getting a lot of play.

Thank you

I noticed something in the Foxhunting song this morning...

"As the sun sets on the east side"

o_O

There's a story behind that, but the gist of it is that the first "pre-chorus" (is it the pre-chorus? a bridge?) would have "west" (which is, of course, correct) and then the second would have "east" which is not. I'm not going to go too in-depth but basically the narrator (and his walk partner) in the song get lost.

EDIT: Might add that I'm honoured you're listening so closely you picked that up.

it's not awfully difficult to do, you know

I know, I need to get round to it, tho.

WHOA! Capital letters AND three exclamation marks! What an opportunity

One of these days I have to apply for a Moorings Gig or something.

Fucking racist.

Yup.

i think my main gripe is that it is over 3 days. you are effectively exposed to the elements from thursday until monday. i don't mind camping for 2 nights but the whole round trip is what knackers me, combine that with insane amounts of walking and drinking (just to get by) and you have a long ass week. i doubt that even ray mears could do it without a post festivle grumble.

You're not obliged to go on Thursday. Just means it's more walking until you find space.

Perfect. ('Cause that's all we have.)

If it's anything like the Musa set...

Obviously not!! Its about future proofing our internet needs for the next 10 years.

8meg is good until you want high def movies, have more than one or two people using a connection or like me being a videographer try to upload something!

If your fine with Aberdeen being left behind the rest of the country as other cities get upgrades and the demand for better speeds increases as the internet 'experience' gets more vivid go ahead, moan about it otherwise just shut up and vote.

I'll support your cause when you learn the difference between "your" and "you're". Ta.
