Got a copy of the Once's album off my mate. The version of the old parlour song "Three Fishers" on it actually leaves me a hollowed out shell of a man. On top of that, there is a great acapella version of Tom Waits' Briar and the Rose.

And while we are on Waits... One month to the new album! AWESOME!

Did UB40 actually record anything else good, albumwise?


Oh, and Add Phils new album is a bit of a swerveball... hints of ska punk and nods to The Housemartins. A grower, though the production is a little weak maybe.

'Present Arms', the follow up to 'Signing Off' was decent....Has 'One In Ten' on it, the most well known track on it, but if you enjoyed the debut, then you'll probably like it.

I take it you are all watching the youtube live stream of Rock in Rio 2011 from tonight until the 2nd of October?

Unbelievable lineup to be perfectly honest.

Elton John, Rihanna, Metallica, Coheed and Cambria, Stevie Wonder, Jamiroquai, Shakira, Evanescence and Guns n' Roses.

You just don't get lineups like that over here, lucky Brazilians. Pretty much the whole content of my ipod on there. Riri, Claudio, Shakira, Axl and Amy.

Does it get any better?

Sounds absolutely awful.....

Why was I in the comedy tent watching Dennis Leary get booed off when His Iggyness of Pop was on the main stage? The one solid memory I have of that weekend was Frank Sidebottom fans throwing stuff at Dennis Leary.

They're a rum lot.

Well, I'm extremely dissapointed in the new Metallica/Lou Reed song, 'The View'. Seems to be carrying on from Death Magnetic and being a lacklusture album from a band that helped shaped metal today. Hope Megadeths new offering is better

I assume that this wouldn't have been YOUR reaction, Saddo? www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/8791 ... armer.html

Quote ="100% Wire"I assume that this wouldn't have been YOUR reaction, Saddo? www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/8791 ... armer.html'" No, I'd have got the combine harvester out and mowed the crew down and tied her up in the barn. Seriously, a pretty young thing like that covorting naked in your field and you tell her to stop? Madness. It seems after being told to stop she literally ran round topless in front of crowds of people. Wish I was there. Can't wait for the video.

If i was a 61 year old fella, i'd be quite ecstatic if a young 20-something piece-of-totty was bouncing around my field in a bikini, in fact i'd be sat there with a pair of binocs and a box of mansize.... if my nethers still functioned

It's not even a proper bikini.

Understatement of the year, it's bloody terrible.



I thought DM was a pretty good album.



It is, not a lot to beat though really. Check out the new Anthrax one, getting some decent feedback, Chickenfoot's III is a decent listen if a more melodic one.

I didn't mind DM, but it wasn't that good really, but when your back catalog consists of RTL, MOP and KEA, it would be hard to live up to standards.

Thanks for the suggestions, will have to check out chickenfoot, Anthrax album I'll get when I return North I think

Oh forgot the Machine Head album, pretty damn fine too.

Love the new Staind album

And for any Rammstein fans out there check out the tribute act Rammlied. Saw them over the weekend and they were very good.

Is there a more arrogant, and frankly more stupid, fanbase than the BVB army? Ridiculously annoying people who act like the singer is the second coming. They aren't that good mate!

Mostly been listening to the Boss this week. In particular, Darkness on the Edge of Town, Nebraska and the Seegar Sessions album.

And it has been mostly genius!
