    They did a cover of Dizzy with Vic Reeves but he wasn't in the band. Size of a Cow was probably their only other hit over here. Very popular in the UK apparently. Still going. According to Wikipedia...

    Oh gawd, you old farts talking about the music you listen to. It's not a problem for me ... I always have an audio book playing in the car

    Today I met a person as boring as myself. We discovered that we both listen exclusively to ABC radio. Does this mean that we are deceased?

    Yup. There's a meeting tonight at the cemetary. Third mausoleum from the south gate, the one with the gargoyles - I'm sure you know the one I mean.

    Yes I know it. I thought it was a dream. OK. I'll lie down now.

    I saw Eskimo Joe play last night. Are they considered 'watery pap'??:confused:

    Great gig.

    They have a couple of good songs but the rest of the latest album is a bit sooky for my liking. Not watery pap though.

    So sooky, but not watery pap.:confused:

    You writing your own dictionary there, Silent? Can I have a read? Or can you just clarify the difference between these two?

    I'll grant that Eskimo Joe isn't really the high energy rock band that one would mosh to, but their show was really solid last night.

    Do I sound like I know what I'm talking about?

    Watery Pap: wishy washy, dreamy stuff with no real beat and a watery sort of melody. Lead singer a suspected homer sexual.

    Sooky: girly sooky lyrics with jangly guitars designed to appeal to the chicks. Lead singer probably not a homer sexual but could be the type of person who picks up girls by making them feel sorry for him.

    Hope it helps

    BTW I just switched off JJJ because they started playing a Scissor Sisters song. That guy IS a homer sexual, not that there's anything wrong with that.

    I've dug out an old Blur cd instead.

    I hope not! For radio listening, I only tune in to ABC Classic FM (it's on the car radio, the alarm clock, the study HiFi, the shed radio and the main HiFi...

    But, I still have a good collection of Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Dire Straits, etc as well as many many hundred CDs of classical music. Oh, quite a bit of Enya and Clannad (the band she was part of before going solo) and Andreas Vollenweider, etc
