Friendship
Just to let everyone know I’ve been in contact with @KatRobin. She’s had a bit of a torrid time since the beginning of the year, so has not had the time to come onto here. She’s alright though and pulling through and hopes to get back on here soon b…

Album 8
Looking back a past albums, they always seem to be prefixed by Alison touring around gathering influences, which is what she appears to have been doing for the last 18 months, really since the end of the last tour. When Will says they have been on a…

A diagnosis is presenting 5 or more of these. He's a slam dunk for all 9!

Occhams Razor suggests that Trump is just an extreme right wing capitalist who is obsessed with white being right, the advancement of his personal fortune and adulation by people who tell him he is great. If you look up the typical manifestations o…

STUMM433 = a new track?
Interesting to listen to 58 covers of silence!

Black Cherry Purple vinyl re-issue
From the blurb with this one, they are reissuing them all one at a time on coloured vinyl. I guess they started with BC because FM was released not the long ago on white vinyl so that may come again at the end.

Not wishing to sound like a Milenial, but I think the appropriate response here is Word!

I feel it's our public duty; all of us, wherever we are, to speak up for fairness, against corruption and criminality, and to nail this constant barrage of lies and propaganda that is intended to distort people perceptions of what is really goi…

A different kind of war is being waged. What annoys me the most is, at our level, the public level, it is one of hearts and minds and a lot if the public are so easily duped by lies and propaganda. Many of them have become emboldened to be seen as o…

RIP
Rutger Hauer was such a menacing character as android Roy Batty in Blade Runner. Hard to believe he was 75. Mind you, when you realise the film was made 37 years ago in 1982, I suppose he would have to be. Might have to give it a watch this weekend…

Thought this thread should have a bump in the current situation with Boris Johnson becoming British PM. 'They say he's the British Trump' says the orange overlord. 'That's what they want; they really like me over there'…

Just saw this myself. As this is on the radio, by going to https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live:bbc_radio_three you should be able to listen anywhere in the world you are.

Black Cherry Purple vinyl re-issue
There were 150 available with a signed art print, but they had sold out by the time I got there, which was about 10 minutes after the email was issued so no idea who got them. Another 50 will be added into random orders after that so fingers crossed…

B52's were fabulous, but what would you expect? Another bunch of stalwart musicians getting on with it despite their age. Cindy is a mere 62, Fred 67 and Kate Peirson, like Stevie Nicks, is 71. They're keeping their Freak Flag flying! At …

Fleetwood Mac were superb as were the Pretenders, if all a little distant in a space as cavernous as Wembley Stadium. Stadium gigs are not my favourites. Any gig where using binoculars is viable is going to leave you detached from the band. It also …

Hi El. Marc Kremmers was one, Adam Klein was the other. He's from Fascination Management (I have an email address for them). TBH, I've had most response from mute@mute.com. That time the site went down and then once up the emails for invit…

Muse were brilliant as usual. Old board friend @Littlebird saw them in Manchester. Not sure if @HellsBells got to see them. We chat on Twitter and if she did, she hasn't said. This Sunday is Fleetwood Mac at Wembley Stadium. Added bonus is tha…

It doesn't necessarily mean anything. Quite a few songs feature Alison in full free form vocal interpretation mode, a la Liz Fraser, using the voice as a musical instrument in its own right, or as it puts it on her Wiki page, 'not relying …

@Halloween_Jack I assume you can't do that unless they get back to you? Someone must be tending to this site otherwise it would have crashed by now. Is there a briefcase with Nucleur codes? I stroll through here most days as the tab is never c…

How do you feel today?
I saw one thing yesterday that was quite touching. They arranged a meeting between a British Commando, who was 19 when he landed on the beach and a German soldier, who was 18. That sat down with them and introduced them to each other and they both s…

Hi El One thing I have noticed is the forum aliens don't like some email addresses that people use, such as GMail. I've had others who did not receive the joining email from the aliens as it goes into their spam folder. You could try emai…

I saw Toyah again last Friday. This was an Up Close and Personal Acoustic gig so she interpreted a number of her songs to suit 2 acoustic guitars and an electric/upright bass. No percussion, just what could be generated off of the acoustic guitars b…

In honour of her birthday, my favourite song about a girl called Alison, by Elvis Costello The simple, clean guitar work on this is impeccable, especially the end section under the repeated line, my aim is true! It's from the viewpoint of the …
