I'm sorry about that comment mate. I was just being silly. I'm a massive fan of The Fall and I have a bit of a soft spot for Right Said Fred and Erasure too so I'm in no position to judge anyone else's musical tastes.I think I must have my mam's genes, NKC, Glenn Miller etc, my younger brother, who was in to punk, northern soul etc & some obscure uncle who must have been a cheesy pop fan

None taking mate, you're not the 1st & certainly won't be the last, it's all in good taste, pardon the pun
Someone once said on here I have horrible taste in my music, but TBH, I don't know what my taste is

The Corrs are preferable. And I would ‘run away’ with them. Even Jim, could send him to the shop to stock up on some decent ales while I tended to all of his sisters wants and needsA Dooley each for you and WeeGord?
I listen to all sorts mate. Said it on another thread the other day but my favourite band or favourite artist can change by the hour. Just depends on what mood you're in at the time. Been listening to a lot of The Country Teasers these last few days but I think I'm in the mood for something a bit noisier tonight. I'll probably stick some Dinosaur Jr. or My Bloody Valentine on and try not to put my back out when I'm doing that whole dancing while sitting in an armchair thing that I do. That's perfectly normal, right? Everybody does armchair dancing . . . don't they?None taking mate, you're not the 1st & certainly won't be the last, it's all in good taste, pardon the pun

Armchair dancing? It's all some of us can manage nowadays. But not with the Dooleys. You'd need a whole sofa for that lot.
How do you get the armchair to dance?
And talking about tastes in music. I have just had two hours on the treadmill listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival. Bliss- I was a teenager again-aaahh those were the days

Sunday morning wake up negotiated, 2 Daim bars did the trick. It’s worrying me she’s a little easy tbh!
Anyway I’m the process added 3 Heineken’s, so no judgement here @joeydiaz.
I feel like I’m doing a tour of countries Prince Philip might insult in tonight’s beers.
I apologise for any post midnight posts in advance, I promise I won’t be asking you describe your musical shape!

Just my natural charm mate. I just give the armchair the eye and then it's just putty in my hands.
It's those arms isn't it? Them bluddy chairs can't keep their arms to themselves. Hussies, that's what they are. You be careful young man
You have to make sure that the armchair gives the eye back afterwards. I wasn't actually joking in that earlier post though. I really did manage to put my back out dancing to Ween in an armchair a few months ago. That's what this whole lockdown thing has reduced me to.It's those arms isn't it?

1 Landlord, glass of red and a Whitby Gin tonight, tucked up in bed now for an early night due to an early alarm for golf tomorrow morning.
Well, you take care mate. I too have a disc that goes out more than I do and it is bluddy painful. Hence me being on the treadmill which actually woks.

Stuttgart memories. My mate didn't turn up because he was delayed in UK so I went out to discover Stuttgart for myself. I ended up in bar called zum Paulaner where I went along the pumps and had the full range of Paulaner beers including a couple of Salvatore. I still have a Salvator poster the gaffer in the bar gave me. It took me a while to get going the following day. My mate turned up at half-time.

I honestly don't know what's happened to my musical tastes. Once on a time my heart slammed the blood round my body to the beat of the Pistols - that foot stomping, marching sound on Holidays In The Sun did funny things to my circulation. But I look at myself now, acoustic guitar hanging off my neck while I fumble around the elusive perimeters of harmonies to 19th century Northumbrian folk songs about coal mining disputes. It's f**king tragic!
A friend of mine told me that 'I too have a disc that goes out more than I do' was the original title of that famous Smiths song but then Morrisey changed it at the last minute because he's a c**t. Not sure if that's really true but I think that I prefer your version to the one that eventually got recorded. Best of luck to you. Back pain is a b****d.

One night it could be the 50's, 60's, the following night Glam Rock, then onto Erasure, Jimmy Summer ville, Bucks Fizz, Dollar, Bay City Rollers
Then on another night punk music, Undertones, new romantics, class
Whatever floats your boat mate. We all have different tastes. I'm a bit like Mr. Vegas. I don't really do the punk stuff that I was in to in my earlier days that much any more and listen to a lot more acoustic folk and country and I've got really in to more electro type stuff as I've got older too. When I was a teenager playing guitar in a crap college band I would never even think about anything that wasn't just guitar, bass, drums and vocals but those tastes evolve over the years. I'm listening to Stereolab right now but I'm trying not to do any of that armchair dancing because I'll only end up regretting it if I do.
