Hey I like my (good) music loud! -

Have you heard it gg? I have only heard the DM (please stop now, enough of the buzzing distorted electronics and crappy weak drum sounds, you are spoiling the memory), Garbage (quite good) and NIN (not very good). Not really keen on U2 so no surprise really just don't like the songs that much. -

Today is it? Not going but it will surely be on the local news this evening. Didn't Elvis go last year? -
I don't know yet actually. I might be going back to the us early in the year so a lot will depend on that. But I do hope to have at least a week out as well as some long weekends. Probably in the Nagano area.

Still sounds remarkably fresh which is more than you can say for lots of electronic pop from the early 80's. A real classic. -

I liked the melodic quirky side of REM. Those few albums before and after OOT were great. Some of the songs on the later albums too I really liked - Up, Reveal were very overlooked and have some great songs on them. Not keen on their "rock" side though. -

Actually Fletch has actually said it so unless it is a joke, sounds like it has happened. Not sure I like that idea. They should record some more of their own songs. -
What's everyone watching now?

A friend of mine has a boxset of The Sopranos and I have started watching that, never seen any of it before. Liking it. -

I am going to book 5 days in Shiga Kogen in November when I finalise my vacation plans with work. Other than that, nearer the time. -
Back to work, the grumbling thread

Back to normal pretty much now. -
The scenes they are showing on NHK now look eerily like March tsunami footage. How awful for people affected.

Wow I never knew Kraftwerk started out like that! I am listening to some Massive Attack at the moment. Love the sounds just wish they'd give it more melody/better vocals. -
Had my first Cinnabon in a long time in London. Love those things!

I thought that too, didn't speak much but he seemed like someone you would really enjoy having some laughs with. Came across as really genuine.

Such terrible news and it was when I was there too. But life in central London pretty much seemed to be "as normal". I enjoyed myself and this didn't change that.

Les Miserables was amazing, Alfie Boe has such an impressive voice and Matt Lucas was very funny as Thernadier. Had a chat with him after he show too, he is funny. Rest of the cast were all strong too. Lots of memories but I am back in Japan now and work be

Yes I agree, quite good that one in a poppy way. -

My favorite singer, Dave Gahan, used to be addicted to heroin and nearly (actually!) died because of it. As much as I love the music he makes, I think he was an utter fool and certainy don't respect him for it. He's clean now happily. Amy seems like she has always been a mess. And I don't like her music, can't see any 'genius' there at all.
