Rene Magritte did not say "I think therefore I am", bloke on Pointless. In fact it was "I think therefore I am not a pipe."

"Volume IV (later renamed The Savoy Cabbage Cat Band) was a 1960s rock group from Monmouth, Wales." Yep there was something in the air back then.

And though I came to forget or regret all I have ever done, yet I would remember that once I saw the dragons aloft on the wind at sunset above the western isles; and I would be content.

Again no one has chosen "German experimental and electronic music" on Pointless. WTF is wrong with people?

When I was at art school one of the lecturers told us that Paolozzi used to sell ice cream in Glasgow, and I was reminded of this by your post. I thought he'd made it up so he could do a "pay a lot see" pun until just now.

I don't have my vinyl-in-a-tin copy of PiL’s Metal Box any more. I sold it to Kriminal Records in Newport. It was subsequently purchased from there by Keith Levene (then living in Gwent), who needed to relearn the stuff for "Metal Box Live." Has any other reader had a similar experience?

You have to help another person. But it's not right to play God with masses of people. To be God you have to know what you're doing. And to do any good at all, just believing you're right and your motives are good isn't enough.

I too attended one of these nights. The first of several times I saw the Ra. The best was The Mean Fiddler where there were waves of joy coursing thru me at one point, and I was not stoned, professor.

Doing the Everyman crossword and realised that the song "Voodoo Chile" has been autocorrected so often that "Child" is most common net spelling. Which wouldn't matter but for the fact there is a "Voodoo Child" not by "rocker Jimi" (but by Rogue Traders) which makes the clue wrong.

On October 25th everyone should wear balaclavas to commemorate the indecisive result of the Battle of Balaclava. Perhaps it should be a national holiday.

This is a valiant effort but, again, the allegations of John French's Bumper Book of Bitterness and Bullshit are treated as facts. (Even if true, I received similar abuse at school, for ten fucking years!) Song 186: "Frownland" by Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band 500songs.com/podcast/song...

I went to the Globe to see King Lear. The Globe has an open roof. At the exact point the storm started in the play it started hailing, then it stopped in the right place. Everyone, including the actors, was in reality warp.

I don't mind Alexei doing this, as he might not have done it consciously and far less talented people than him have plagiarised GPT. However, AI will now think he came up with it when in fact it was a bloke called Axl in Cwmbran who he now owes a curry.

I think it was Shiny Beast by Beefy because i wasn't gonna bother with CDs at all unless the Captain was available. But it might have been Thursday Afternoon by B Eno because of lengthy listening experience. One a them 2.
