Drinking in all that heritage..
Yes, I unknowingly had chosen a fitting choice of food and drink. It's a lovely place. Have you ever been, Prisoner?
Strange/unexpected Moz references?
- Thread starter still I cling
- Start date

I forgot to mention this, and I don't know if anyone else has already done so, but when I went to see Jimmy Carr on his "Rapier Wit" tour he chose to play "Panic" as one of the songs before he entered (as people seated theirselves).

Yes I've had a cuppa in there.

I've been reading Dara O'Briain's book Tickling the English, which concentrates a great deal on English/British identity. In one chapter he quotes from Andy Medhurst's list of things which contribute towards 'English-ness':
"...Coronation Street, the Radio Times, seaside piers, the Grand National, Sheringham in Norfolk on a Sunday afternoon, Mansfield in Nottinghamshire on a Friday night, 'There Is A Light That Never Goes Out' by The Smiths..."

And then they went out on the town (Berlin?) The NME article was entitled:

...Does this Count ???
I was in my local pub on Sunday, wearing a "Ringleaders" T-shirt.
As I was having a Smoke in their Smoking area, Some rather large chappie said to his Mates " That Feckin' Morrissey....he screwed up our Family Holiday last year...Our 'Plane had to wait an hour for him to Board, and we missed our connection at t'other end..."
..or something VERY similar.....
I am not sure if Morrissey even uses aeroplanes.....Or if, indeed, what the chappie said was, in fact, true....
...Just sayin'.......

Well I just about pissed myself during the elevator scene in 500 Days of summer, but that probably wasn't unexpected by most, I just knew nothing about the movie before watching!
I still can't decide if I like that movie, I'm not a huge Zooey Deschanel fan...because she married Ben Gibbard
...who is unfrinkable, but I have to admit to liking Death Cab. Their cover of This Charming Man was terrible though (that was another unexpected thing, when I found they had covered that song!) I did copy her haircut though.
I'm new to these forums but I love em already! Pray for me that I won't one day post something I instantly deeply regret...that always happens to me
(what is that blushing smiley doing with its hand?!)

This may have been posted before. Not necessarily unexpected or strange, but I came across a review for Kenneth Williams: Fantabulosa! (which is fantastic, by the way) on the internet:
"A film of definitively British miserableness, the sort embodied by Morrissey (before he moved to LA and embraced sunshine)"
Welcome to Solo, Emma.
It is a pretty good place to be, usually. I do agree about the blushing emoticon though.
Yes, I thought the DCFC cover of 'This Charming Man' was pretty dire as well, but I do like them usually. I haven't seen 500 Days of Summer yet, I must do at some point.

Again from Tickling the English...
"In a bizarre confluence of shows which Damon christened our 'Everyday Is Like Sunday' tour, we played one faded seaside town after the other."
If I find another one in this book before I take it back to the library tomorrow, do I get a prize?

silly note writer
There's a short write-up on the Bona Drag 20th Anniversary release in the September issue of 'W' magazine. It's surprising since it's a fashion magazine, and I've never seen mention of Moz there before.
