  1. Ricey

    RIP David Bowie

    Died at the age of 69, shocked me a little bit this one. Great musician and brilliant in Labrinyth! RIP a true legend.
  2. Napster

    RIP Kenny Ball

    You must of heard of this one at least. First UK jazz musician to be a honorary citizen of New Orleans. Most top 40 hits in UK for any jazz musician. One hit wonder in the US though.

    RIP-Bert Weedon.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-17781762 Another great musician has passed away today.Anybody who's ever seriously played a guitar(not me sadly) probably owes a debt to the Bert Weedon Play in a day songbook.

  7. Harshest Musician on Musician insults

    Some of these made me properly LOL! 30. Wayne Coyne on Arcade Fire “I get really tired of their pompousness [sic]… We’ve played some shows with them and they really treat people like ****. People treat Arcade Fire like they’re the greatest thing ever and they get away with it… They have good...

    Famous musicians and their offspring...

    I got tweeted a link to Evan James' myspace yesterday. He's the son of a big hero of mine, Bruce Springsteen. Have a listen here: http://www.myspace.com/evanjamesmusictime I tried to be objective, and tried to image what I would think if I didn't know he was Springsteen's son. Not easy. It...

    Country music

    Is it "white peoples Blues" as an unattributed black blues musician is supposed to have said? I don't know but I find myself enjoying it more with age.I'm an occasional listener to Whispering Bob Harris's country music programme on Radio 2 and late last night I sat through a whole series of...

    Rediscovering bands

    I love it when i rediscover a band that I haven't listened to in years. I recently rediscovered the almost universally hated The Smashing Pumpkins. I don't like their later stuff but up to and including Mellon Collie I think they are a quality band. Billy Corgan maybe a tosser but I don't...

    Who is he/she?

    Following the success of the who are you thread, how about a who is he/she thread? Basically you answer on behalf of someone else, then nominate another regular poster and someone answers on behalf of them and nominates someone else and so on. Might be quite entertaining or might develop into a...

    Question Who are you?

    There is constant talk at the minute about a clique. What i suggest is that you use this thread like a dating agency and sell yourself. You don't have to enter anything private if you don't want to. Hopefully this will make it easier for everyone to get to know somebody Name i would prefer to...

    New ideas for TV shows

    Our five-a-side game at Mile End was one player short tonight so someone suggested having a reality TV show to find an extra player. Part of me found this so funny it needed sharing, part of it is undoubtedly self-indulgent but a big part of me is hopeful of getting more ideas from the good...
