Old man River

I have an amusin story to tell... Well actually it's a story about cinematic stupidity... Something I've never done before, and at the same time feel very stupid for having done it but also mysteriously proud... I went with a femal friend of mine to the movies, and she wanted to see Sex & The City, I said "alright" despite the fact I didn't give a shit about the show, but anyway I said we'd go and see it. We bought tickets for the 9.15pm session, we're down at the multiplex, we buy the popcorn and the over-sized over-priced frozen Cokes at the candy bar, so we head in the direction of the cinemas... On the dispay board outside Cinema No. 2 It says 'Sex In The City' so we went in, but the movie had already started, I turned to my friend and said "hmm, that's funny, normally there's 15 minutes of previews..." anyway we settled in to the movie, and as I'm watching it I'm thinking "boy, this film must be a continuation of the TV series, I have no idea what's going on..." Anyway after we'd been in there for about 50 minutes, the movie ends! We turned to each other and said "shit, is that it?? A 50 minute movie??" we thought something must've gone wrong, maybe they missed a film reel... anyway we left the cinema and went back to the counter to find a staff member to ask what went wrong and why did we pay full price for a 50 minute movie.... It was then to my utter shock and horror I realised something... Cinema No. 8, thirty metres down the hall-way was also showing Sex & The City...the fucking 9.15 session we bought tickets for! We'd accidently walked into the 7.45 session, and consequently sat down over half-way through the movie...The wrong bloody theatre! aie aie aie I've never done that before. It was because I was lumped with holding all the popcorn and drinks, so I never had a chance to look at our ticket stubs for the cinema number! (we weren't directed to our cinema either because there was nobody on ticket-ripping directing duties...) I stupidly went for just what was written out the front... Oh well. I still think Sarah Jessica Parker looks like a man... And how is it these over-sex New York women who never seem to do anything for a job, all live in Upper East Side apartments that would probably cost three or four million?

By The Light Of The Silvery Moon

Really? You laughed in it? I thought it was such a yawn... The funniest movie I ever saw was Borat. It's the only film where I have actually, literally, fallen off my chair with laughter.

Happy Together

Baby, It's You

Walk On By - Burt Bacharach

Actually, the more I think about it, the more amazing it was...so many unanswered questions in that film...

Boys - The Shirelles

I really recommend you go and see The Orphanage, it's a Spanish horror movie, sort of...It's not a blood-and-guts horror movie, more like The Shining and The Others...

Hang Out The Washing On The Siegfried Line

Have you noticed how Paul Mccartney's almost getting as bad as Cliff Richard these days? I mean I saw a couple of song clips from his "Memory Almost Full" album, and, shit, I just don't know what Macca is thinking...

Eurovision - Telex

But You Know I Love You - Dolly Parton

Do You Know the Way to San José

Okay, because the reason why I thought it was Woodstock was because it's obvioulsy from a large outdoor festival, and also it has that Woodstock amp and cab sound, but after doing some research it says they had to re-tune during Good Morning Little School Girl which definately doesn't happen in my version

Pity it's not from a bayonet...

*sigh* ah yes the drive in... I remember it well... I remember being a kid and walking backwards to the hotdog shop because you didn't want to miss any of the movie... I remember Dad driving away and unforgetting to unhook the speaker... Sitting on the roof of the car watching 'Never Ending Story' and 'The Dark Crystal'...

oh, what do you care about getting older? Someone as amazingly beautiful as you has nothing to fear with age, you just classier and more elegant...

That's the beauty of getting older...you can enjoy nice nights instead of wild nights... a couple of months ago I went to this shitty club and I said to my friend "10 years ago, I probably would've gotten pissed in a place like this, then slept the night on somebody's floor. I'm glad I don't do that anymore"

ah well me and a friend were looking through this trunk full of clothes and we found a couple of ladies' one-piece swimsuits in there, so we put them on and we couldn't get over how big our vaginas were, it was funny

A friend of mine was really into them. I'd go over his place and he'd always have them playing and I thought "yeah, that's some good stuff"

Actually I could be wrong, it could be an Isle of Wight recording... What does Alvin say at the end of the Isle Of Wight recording?

I haven't gotten into ELP yet, however I loved The Nice, which as most of you would know was Keith's first band, before ELP. There were some great tracks from The Nice, Dawn being one of my particular favourites

Yeah which is a great great shame, he was such a hot punch guitarist, he was so good. I loved their performance of Good Morning Little School Girl at Woodstock, it was one of the most kick-ass performances of the whole things! Don't forget Leo Lyons on bass too, he was an awesome bassist, as can be seen at Woodstock, his interplay with Alvin Lee was just perfect Ric Lee great on drums as well
