    Glastonbury 2025

    Turnstile tour only took a few hours to sell out. If anyone had a brain they'll be looking to add dates in the parts of the country they've missed but it rarely works like that.

    Oasis Reunion

    Everything is about hype these days. Has to be the best ever or world beating. Seems impossible for anyone to just say it was a good gig and they had fun. I’m in a few music groups and it drives me mad, every day there’s ’best gig ever’ posts.

    Things that annoy you

    Well yes but I don't think anyone really considers who owns the means of production until they're sat at home unemployed firing out hundreds of job applications and not getting a response. We may not be seeing record profits but my experience across three employers in the last 15 years is that...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I would happily pay more tax if a) I thought everyone was paying their fair share and b) I thought it would actually make any difference to services and not just disappear off into some donors pocket My experience of speaking to people in high tax countries is that it really doesn't bother...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    does make me laugh the uproar anytime there's any suggestion that the 1% should pay more. whatever is suggested its always 'the economy will crash' or 'they'll all leave the country'. but people are quite happy for those at the bottom to be hit with a bigger tax bill or benefits to be taken off...

    Things that annoy you

    And if we're looking at AI being annoying then the now daily phone calls from managers saying 'I need you to implement AI' with zero clue what it is or what they want to use it for.

    Things that annoy you

    Does that not highlight a problem though? What you're describing there is improvements in automation leading to better conditions for the masses. If you go back far enough you can trace a move from 12 hour shifts 7 days a week to 9-5 Monday-Friday. Thats a clear benefit to the population at...

    Oasis Reunion

    If I was an Oasis fan I'd be wanting to go and see Oasis. Not like it's a band which had a revolving door of members. I would have far less interest in going to see Liam, Noel and pals. It's being promoted similarly to when the Robinson brothers got back together and created a new Black Crowes...

    All-purpose tennis thread

    Hard to argue with Sabalenka when she says its won't be long before Radacanu is in the top 10

    Club finances

    Exactly, I mean at some point one won't but hopefully it's not us. It was only really a bigger concern with SISU because a club not playing in its home city with an owner wanting to get all their money back wasn't an easy sell.

    Club finances

    I suspect if we hadn't been through all the shit with SISU nobody would be giving a second thought to our finances. While its good to be aware, and I prefer people to be concerned rather than being like Portsmouth fans who demand ridiculous levels of investment within months of being 'saved'...

    Oasis Reunion

    How come the the other band members are being forgotten about. I get the brothers being the main focus but it's not like they're backed by a bunch of random session musicians. Even the 'band' photos are just the two of them.

    Oasis Reunion

    I'd be amazed if he does more than a couple of songs, probably with a backing track like his last few 'live' appearances. Think the best case scenario is he's well enough to sit on his throne and watch other artists guest with his solo band and Sabbath. tbh that is by far the better option. I...

    Glastonbury 2025

    The local Conservative Party threatened the promoter, and the venue, with action under the public order act and a vague 'other relevant legislation', but the main threat was from Israeli linked solicitors, UK Lawyers For Israel, who were threating legal action against pretty much anyone involved...

    Death List 2025

    Julian McMahon, 56, fucking cancer. If you don’t know the name you would likely recognise him, been in everything from Homr & Away to Dr Doom in the Fantastic Four movies.

    Glastonbury 2025

    So Bob Vylan were supposed to be headlining Radar festival this weekend but they got removed and then it all kicked off. Ticket buyers were furious and when the festival refused refunds people started doing chargebacks via their card issuer and other acts due to appear started pulling out...

    All-purpose tennis thread

    The abuse the female brit players get is absolutely disgusting. We've got a number of player doing pretty well and towards the top end of the rankings, and improving but the abuse is relentless. Radacanu gets the worst of it, not to mention some serious issues with a stalker. There's a lot of...
