The weekend beer and music thread...

[WeeGord]

Evening folks, and wishing you all a great weekend! Big game tomorrow away to Watford and hoping we can follow up a couple of decent performances with another 3 points. Tough game but hopefully we've turned the corner and it's onwards and upwards from here.

I'm a fan of the Lilleys brewery stuff and picked up a couple of these in Morrisons a couple of days ago. It's not my usual sort of drink but looking forward to giving them a try.



A colourful tune to kick the music off, I saw these last weekend and they were really good!

Evening WeeG. I hope you're well.

Possibly my favourite Simon and Garfunkel, love the guitar lick in this and the lyrics are good too.

35th anniversary of this great album this week. One of my favourite tracks by one of my favourite bands.

Rump steak in peppercorn sauce tonight with chilli squeaky cheese and corn on the cob washed down with a crisp Oregon white Pinot noir.
After the earlier thread this morning, a bit of my friend Stan by Slade.

One of those occasions when the cover is better than the original:

Just had fish and chips, now going to start my Lego Executor Super Star Destroyer and have a glass of two of a delightful Shiraz called Barossa Ink. I'm sure there will be tunage later when I get tired of the Lego.

Very good version
Easier on the eyes too. I wondered why you like the aesthetically looking Rickenbacker

Fad Gadget - A genius that totally passed me by and now I have a lot of catching up to do.

been trying to get hold of some Sycamore Gap Pale Ale but settling for a Punk IPA Hazy Shade of Jane

Purely a coincidence old boy!

Quite a good song ,I quite like them very clever sound and lyrics. This song you have posted I have had to bring the lyrics up as its intrigued me. Very conspiratorial, Kennedy assassination and why has it got the Australian connection?

 

[Low_Key]

Pasta for tea. San Miguel tonight. No music as kids have voted the little mermaid in for the film choice. Taking it easy as ripon races tomorrow

Evening all. I'm on the wagon this weekend, so I thought this track would be appropriate.

Nearly went all "prog" and posted some "Mostly Autumn" (who I heartily recommend should you feel the need for something of that oeuvre). Instead let's have some Tubes:

 

[RedAsABeetroot]

My favourite cider Thatcher's Katy.
Listening to White Lies Big TV album.

Shepherd's pie and French red. Nice mix. Got to say due to life I am pretty drunk already.

 

[TheLodger]

The downside this weekend is I have covid, so no beer, on the plus side I was sent home from work just when the Ryder Cup started, and what a day.


So why not Fleetwood Mac to celebrate an excellent days golfing?

I think you're looking for things that aren't there. I don't know of any Kennedy connection and the hole through the world idea comes out in China, from a comic John Linnell read where a character shoots through a table mounted globe at New York and the characters see the bullet emerge through China, where the name Ng comes from. Looking for something to write a song about Linnell was struck that the surname Ng took up four pages in his local telephone directory, so there were four pages without a vowel.
Hope this helps. They are indeed brilliant lyricists TMBG.

By the way the previous comment is a good thing. Celebrating taking ownership.
