Being emailed wonderful Pearl Jam rarities as a Christmas present. How come people online are so much nicer than 90% of the people I meet in "real life"?

Because the people in real life have shit taste in music.

I only got into them just when 'Elephant' came out, I knew they existed but never listened to their stuff.

Even though I liked "Half Full Glass Of Wine" & "Desire Be Desire Go" without knowing they played it.

Ohh okay, that's okay then, I forgive you.

Haven't you ever got that with a song/band? know a song by them but you don't know who it's by or what it's called? Then a few years after you finally find out by coincidence of listening to that specific band or just clicking on it in youtube suggestions.

I got it with Clubfoot by Kasabian
Every Pendulum single ever released -_-
Jellylegs by Children Collide
& Shamefully enough...He's A Rocker (I forgot about The Vines around 2007 when "Anysound" stopped playing on rage)

In Utero and Bleach work everytime




Merry Christmas Australians and Scottishians!

Eeee, yay! Uhmm, try Marblehead Johnson by The Bluetones, and Going For Gold by Shed Seven.

I haven't heard that Shed Seven song in years. It's a great tune.

Currently listening to The Subway's debut album and it's filled with the most priceless nostalgia. They were the first ever band I saw live back in 2005. When they came here, they played in a tiny venue that was only supposed to hold 100 people, but somehow, there was over 200 of us crammed inside bouncing around like there was no tomorrow. Not entirely sure how that worked out, but it was probably the best first gig you could've asked for. It had the lot, it really did. Crowd surfing, jumping off of the speakers into the crowd and a stage invasion during the encore! Fuck me, that was a good night.

The singer actually used to post on the old Vines' forum years ago, but he stopped after he made it big. Looking back, I can see that this album's heavily influenced by The Vines, so maybe that's why I have such fond memories of it. It's genuinely an epic 40 minutes.

Hi, my loveee! I reaally liked Marblehead Johnson....but Shed Seven reminds me too much of Oasis mixed with REM and I can't really connect with them. Not saying I don't like Oasis (I can't recall how many times I've listened to Morning Glory in my car) but they only have a few songs I truly connect with (like Songbird and She's Electric--both remind me of you). Oasis for me is like the Kooks for you (maybe?) and REM just aren't my type.
Pleasssee, Queen of Britpop don't kill me Just kidding, thank you sooo much for the recommendations.
If I have one to rec to you, it'd be Waterloo Sunset by The Kinks bc that songs makes me feel good like you do

wooah, I use to love the Subways....I had no idea Billy Lunn use to post on the old forum. Any chance you remember his forum name so I can go stalk his posts?

Haha awh that's totally okay. I don't mind at all, and understand completely. Not everyone can like everything, even people with similar tastes in music. I won't kill you.

And ohh haven't you seen on my blog/Twitter how I've been listening to The Kinks a lot lately? Waterloo Sunset is my favourite of all their songs I've heard (which is - comparatively to their entire discography - not many). I honestly adore it. And beyond that, I absolutely fell in love with the rendition Ray Davies did at the Olympics Closing Ceremony.

You haven't listened to much of The Kinks? Wow. For someone that takes pride in listening to British bands, it's beyond me that you're not that familiar with them. Next you'll be saying that you don't know Pink Floyd.

As for Billy Lunn, the old forum we all used to post on doesn't exist anymore and even if it did, I'd be amazed if I could remember a username from 2003.

... I haven't listened to much Pink Floyd. I know, I know! It's terrible. There are quite a few gaps in my library when it comes to "staple" British bands, not for any other reason except the fact I can't afford their discography. When I get into bands, I like to do it thoroughly, you know?

Tame Impala in town in April/May, with Groovin' AND sideshows

AW YISSSSS

My Mother is now 72 shuuush! It is a secret!
She just met a lady she thought was around 80
but found out she was really 91. My Mum said
"She is old enough to be her Mother".

I should do something special for Mum since she
is missing her Mother - gone for about 17 years now.

Any Ideas? Note: she is living in another state so
it has to been something to cheer her long distance.
or by mail... I do have some pictures my Grandma
gave me from my Mother's childhood.
