I need to trade in my club, it leaves splinters.

It's been there for ages, JJ, but the tired old fogies like me don't do a great deal of clubbing these days, so we've waiting for swinging, hip youngsters like you, (who enjoy the music of modern beat combos, as I believe that they're called these days) to enlighten us about this new rock-&-roll craze that we keep hearing about ;-)

I'll have to point this out to our Shreddie knitting club. We could do with a new kickstart. expect some rave reviews in future.

I have never noticed this before. Can I be the first person to use it and say that Peter Gabriel is performing his So album in the UK at the end of this year? I missed him last time so I am happy that there is another opportunity to hear him perform his best ever album.

I think that I have been to three or four concerts in my 50 years.

Queen and Status Quo
Eagles
Sidney Devine
Corries

are all that I can think of

Thanks Chris. I have a story to do with the first time I heard this album but I`d better not elaborate.

SJ, you MUST !

JJ - just seen this. I shouldn`t say but anyway.. Years ago when that album was released (I think it was in the late 80s) I was in Berlin. In those days Berlin was still a little bit decadent. It was before the wall came down I think. So my female colleague and I were taken to a bar by our male colleagues. When we got there this bar was populated by British servicemen (mainly Army) and apart from the strippers that worked there, we were the only two females in the place. When we walked into the place, all of the Squaddies said "Hello girls". Anyway, me being no shrinking violet, I was not bothered. So we sat down and a floor show commenced which involved strippers sticking chocolates up their nether regions and using their pelvic muscles to fire them out so that the squaddies could eat them. Then the strippers picked on a man in the audience so that he could join them in the communal pool that they had. Needless to say, we bribed them to choose our colleage who was a bit green about the gills. The best thing about that night was that So by Peter Gabriel was showing on the TV (in between the porn films) and when I got back to London the first thing I did was buy that CD. It`s still a fantastic album. I think I have had a very sheltered life.
