This live Knife is a wonder.

No wonder Donald Trump adopted the lyrics as his campaign strategy.

Can't agree.

Duke was far better. Abacab and Genesis had some good material.

Illegal Alien and Calling All Stations be damned.


I agree with Spock!

W&W was their last robust

I was not keen on what they became thereafter

Fair enough.

And while they never mentioned you by name, they did say in a 1981 interview that the long years of sharing a fanbase with Ginger Baker's Airforce had thankfully ended at last.

Agreed, although I also consider the recording to be a signature Hackett moment.

I haven't yet properly read the exchange between Johnny the Slider and C posted earlier, but it seems a double might be available.

Ice one...


ahh, punnery so cool.

i am sorry i had to miss this, with my genesissian self. sigh. i love it so.

the good news: the fridge bill was 136.50.

i expected much worse, like a blown compressor or condensor or whatever the fucque it's called. the damn fridge was soundin like a prop plane about to take off. when that com-thingie goes, yer lookin at enough money to buy a whole new fridge... which would've been massively uncool.

(side note: i really need a job, if anyone has any help or advice.)

but enough domestic babble. when's supper ready?

have a fine weekend, everybody.
