Have fun!

I know what you mean. When I was at school, the title of 'cock of the year' was bestowed upon the lad who was toughest and best at fighting. Unless you're referring to something else. Hmm...

Heh. It was my favourite exclamatory swearword a while ago. Nowadays, I favour the all-purpose COCK!

You just want Thom to sound cheerful in comparison when he arrives!

Oh Brad! Dammit Janet just came on. I don't think I could ever hear those lyrics again without thinking about you. ;-D

I hope it doesn't disappoint, there's nothing worse than a build-up sometimes!

Maybe they're phasing it according to when you placed your order. You'll like it!

You had 104 tracks to my 63. So I guess you don't grade SO harshly!* Ya, the marathon is well and truly over!** *percentage wise. I'm being geeky again. **Never mind Christopher O'Riley, The Eraser, Easy Star All-Stars or any of the other follow-ups I might have considered, I'm all paranoided out***. ***Says he, slapping on the most depressing Pet Shop Boys album of all!

Oh that would be amazing! Be prepared for the Scando takeover of your weekly neighbours...! By way of a Glaswegian/post-rock cultural exchange, I may see if I can get Mogwai into my weekly charts.

I'm feeling very much in demand right now! :D

Double D'oh! Just twigged that I can check your Seen Live tag for that one. God bless the interweb. It's been a very long day. So, let me tell you they are INCREDIBLE and very rythmically and sonically exciting. I'm talking to myself really. Sorry, a bit rambly. It's been a very, very long day.

D'oh! Was just wondering who would win this non-pissing contest and only just twigged that I could check your library too. It's been a long day. Anyway, you clearly win. :-) On an unrelated note, have you seen them live? P.S. and equally unrelated, how many times and do any of them include big one-off homecoming gigs in Oxford? ;-)

Just emailed you the list - bear in mind there's one dupe from a compilation and I haven't imported any of Pablo Honey except Creep, though the CD is knocking around somewhere.

I know, how harsh of me! Might revisit that album at some point, 'You' and 'Stop Whispering' at least might well get upgraded. If you're really staying up you might well get In Rainbows before me, I expect they'll release it while I'm at work...

Yay to simultaneous shouting! And I think teh internets is safe, you lot will all be in bed ;-)

Sure no problem-let me know if you change your mind!

The Radiohead marathon is ON. Just the four and five star tracks, mind, or I'll be up all night. There's still 46 of the fuckers though!

Really liking Holy Fuck-do you need the new PJ Harvey at all?

It's weird, considering the album is legitimately available for free if you want it, and considering the amount of music in my collection that I haven't paid for, that I found myself paying £5 for it. Some sort of reverse psychology?

Me again! Hello! Do I spot the beginnings of a listen-to-all-of-Radiohead before the new one comes out? I was going to do that. But it's coming tomorrow and I forgot to start!

PS Who you calling vintage? ;-)

They've got a big discography & that's the only one I've got. But it's the best by all accounts.

You know, I only recently bothered to find out what a K-Hole was. It was about a zillion times less rude than I thought it was :( I'm so naive.

They want you! They want you! They want you as a new recruit!

Bright Eyes, brilliant, thanks! I've put up something for you too, it's [album artist=Can]Tago Mago[/album] - when you're in the mood for something experimental it'll knock your socks off. This record is older than me, but if it came out today it would still get reviewed as innovative and fresh. Think you'll like the drumming.

Oh I do like a surprise - thanks!

I'm not the sort of girl who can spy the words 'drink' 'onion' and 'jug' without popping round to check I'm not being slandered. I'd say it was more an english onion soup, really, paler than its french cousin; not so much caramelised as honeyfied. Fucking lovely too. (and that was certainly neither fack nor fook!)

Oh don't bloody encourage him. (FYI: Northerners say Fuck not Fook. i.e. how it's supposed to sound. It's actually Southerners who say Fack. Oh, and no-one says FYI). Apart from being very pedantic and parochial, I'm fine thank-you. I have to give a talk at the end of the week to my colleagues about... well, me really. I am fookin' shittin' bricks ov'r it, I tell yer.

And Patrick Wilson may be one of my favorite actors of the moment right now... LOVED Hard Candy and thought he was highly underrated in that, seeing as Ellen Page had the best lines (Didn't Roman Polanski just win an Oscar!?) Can honestly say I thought Kate Winslet was never better than with her work in Little Children though...

Evan Rachel Wood's appearance on my list is down to Across The Universe, the new movie with all of the Beatles songs in it... her stuff isn't too good, really but there's a few really good covers on it (I Want To Hold Your Hand becomes a lesbian love anthem, per example...)

The secret is to caramelise the onions nice and slowly. And to stir in some flour just before you - pah! Why am I telling you my secrets? And this isn't recipeswap.fm after all ;-)

That new Oceansize album surprised me, very very POST-ROCKISH

Afternoon/Morning to you Brad, long time no hear. Hope all is well... Seems NIN is getting a bit more netplay round these parts of late... any cool new stuff? I understand the Arcade Fire lived up to all sorts of expectations...

What an album, oh yes. And I'm not a bad host, apparently. My home made french onion soup was good enough that Mimey drank it cold from a jug when we got back in on Saturday night. I do like my own cooking, but not THAT much ;)

Sounds good! OFF the rails as ever here :), I had [url=http://www.last.fm/user/Mimey/]two[/url] [url=http://www.last.fm/user/bbamethyst/]houseguests[/url], a great deal to drink, and an eventful karaoke night.

Good morning to you - have you had a nice weekend?

No Linderman yet! They've been teasing us for months...

It's the best thing on telly at the moment by a long chalk! Christopher Eccleston just showed up over here, which was especially exciting for us Doctor Who geeks.

Yay! Let's hope they stick around.

I've seen a promo picture! And nearly fainted. No spoilers though, we're only halfway through season 1 here! :)

There is a bit of a similarity now you mention it, stupid fringe and all. Mind you I've never really thought about Conor that way. Except when he sings [track artist=Bright Eyes]Lover I Don't Have To Love[/track], when it's hard to think about anything else :)

aww, no no. Just different!

It's the pine needles. They get everywhere. Even virtual ones! ;)

How about Black Dice? On the post-rocker radar? Just grabbing Holy Fuck many thanks again!
