Money's Too Tight To Mention came on radio today, I forgot how good that record is.

Don't like Simply Red as such. Fairground was popular but I had to turn the radio off every time it was played. I quite like 'Sunshine' and 'It's only Love'. Cheesy, but good.

The Ting Tings The Courteeners The Fall Nine Black Alps

Two out of four ain't bad...

the chameleons

My personal opinion is New Order or Joy Division.

But I'm aware that the majority of people think more Smiths, Oasis, Mondays.

But I don't care about the majority of people.

I like the cut of your jib

thing is ,right now or ever?

new order/joy divsion smiths doves elbow

old skool,magazine,buzzcocks have big special gigs coming up of which i will be attending.

went elbow manchester last night,still a really great live band but noticed some dodgy stuff going on there there with balloons and dry ice though, i reckon someome like liam would have fucking spewed up,ha

so anyway maybe DOVES for me of the current bands !!! what happening with there comeback though ? i know they were not on mike's list cus he's still living in the 70's/80's i might be going hawkwind mike.

by the way buzzcocks doing first two albums start to finish at manc academy in jan,anyone fancy it ? or magazine comeback gig at london forum in feb ?

Should still be Take That musch bigger pulling power, by the tickets they sell

just because take that sell more it does not make them better - by that argument mcdonalds is the best restaurant in the world.

you missed loads out from hermanns hermits, freddie & the dreamers through to the ting tings, the whip etc

besides, new order are a salford band.

Funny thing is every member of Take That has a better voice than Barney

New order are a salford band ?, well the gumpy half,, the other 2 are mac lad ies

always be 10 cc for me.

so dont forget it

Stone Roses?

Anyway - although not by much I would always say NO from Smiths by a whisker.

Can any other city (even London) boast a similarly impressive array of talent?

What exactly does "ish" mean?

And where is recycle? He's taking his time in berating everyone for not automatically supporting New Order.

Not everyone, just you.

I might go on the forums of a band I used to like and just abusing everyone and everyone's posts....... might start with the Interpol site.

Off you go then!
