For your delight and entertainment
« on: March 12, 2007, 07:55:23 am »

This may be possibly too obscure for everyone here bar the few who know and love XTC, but everyone else I've shown has got a kick out of it anyway. If only more bands would write a history of themselves into something like this instead of a self-indulgent wank-song. As an aside, can anyone else think of any bands which have made it fairly big yet retained a sense of humour? It's all too rare.

Seriously, you might wonder why the hell I'd bother you with this, in which case de-can me or whatever is fitting.

I can't remember if I cried, when I read about his widowed bride. But something touched me deep inside, the day the music died... OR DID IT?

I'll let you off as it made me go and listen to Primus covering Making Plans again.

Huh, interesting theory.  It did strike me as odd that Terry referred to Misterqueue in his 4th post ever.  I took him to be a well educated noob, but if you look at the avatar... he is oddly familiar.

If Terry isn't Judy, then Judy should sue Terry for ripping off his thing.

Sorry Terry, nothing personal. In fact, thanks for the link, I loved it.

however: I feel like he mentioned something which indicated being older. I forget what... something about "when I was a teen" maybe?

Judy had a variety of avatars.  Shane McGowan mostly.
