And here is where Stephen Whyte will find himself fleeing from Cockneys come October: http://db.bbc.co.uk/oxford/stage/apollo.shtml > 2. AG said . . . > From: Tom Foolery > > . . . quite a bit, didn't he? :) But at least I managed to say it only once. > You saw KRAFTWERK??? You lucky bastard. Shame on you > though for not busting a move, sir. I was 13, it was wasted on me at that age. It was my first gig by about a month, narrowly beating Duran Duran on their first tour. Which balances things up somewhat. Then again, Duran Duran were supported by Talk Talk which probably swings it back my way a bit. And for the record I never, ever dance. > Level 42 would do an excellent cover of "I'm the > Operator of my Pocket Calculator." Do any young people here who care about such things know whether the wretched Coldplay acknowledged ripping off Kraftwerk's 'Computer Love' in that turgid piece of theirs I hear everywhere? > Speaking of, anybody hip to Senor Coconut? Good grief. Whatever you do don't tell Paul Anka. Actually I quite like bits of the 'Rock Swings' album, albeit that to make it work they've had to not so much arrange the originals as re-write them. Not a patch on a Curtis Stigers I picked up recently though - I only just discovered that far from being the poor man's Michael Bolton I had him pegged as, he's actually more of a modern day Mel Torme. And he's cut his hair as well. > 1.

I'm not sure which is worse, playing Level 42 to the exclusion of other music, or ending up rating Nirvana. A case of two wrongs making a Whyte. Ho ho. > Yeah but > he also went to see Kajagoogoo. This may explain > why he titled one of his posts a while back "The > Never Ending Story" Not so, because - it gets worse - I saw a post-Limahl Kajagoogoo. > although quite why every single > post back in the dawning days of the digest was > named after a film still escapes me... Ah, the eternal question. > 3. Boxing Helena > From: emikatie @ adelphia.net > > My intentional misspelling of the artists name was done for no good reason other than to evoke a smile. Next thing you know he'll be calling the single Haitch-Gang. Why is the Fagen album coming out six days earlier in America? It's not like he needs the delay so he can get here to promote it - too busy touring the homeland. Well, sod him, I'm not buying it. AG PS And what's wrong with you lot that you can't cope with going to a concert on your own? I can't think of anything worse than standing there with someone who doesn't really want to be there. Learn to love yourselves and go it alone guys. ___________________________________________________________ Yahoo!
