Why doesn't he just walk.... Well I guess he does because he's a walking PR disaster....
Buy him a flymo and a bag of sunflower seeds....

If I had to invent a pizza for a conference.... I'd call it a sloppy joey.... Are you OK Gregsy? I'm not sure if I want to answer that because we might get dragged into the theories of Plato and Aristotle.....

Out for me....
Even if results can turn around from now I feel too much damage has been done with this appointment.... And then there's the divisions, and all the pending s***.... I don't know why he doesn't just walk....

Pulp were/are one of the few bands of that era that I never saw live and would jump at the chance if they ever reformed; even though I know it would never be the same. I watched lots of that Glastonbury on Channel 4 - must have been a few more years before it ended up on the BBC. The good lady did about 12 Glastos on the bounce. Had tickets for the 50th anniversary in 2019 which got cancelled - were supposed to roll over to 2020 so assume they will for next year.
I've been lucky to see some great stuff over the years; but I can't wait to see some of the rescheduled gigs that I've got coming up over the next few months. A bit like getting back to Fratton Park - it's not so much the performance as the chance to see the performance.
Although the Glastonbury 95 performance was seminal there’s a YouTube video of Common People at Reading 2011 which I think is even better as, sixteen years later, it has even more energy and is a masterclass of stagecraft and musicianship. I love the intro from Jarvis who says that if Pulp are only remembered for that one song, he doesn’t care as it’s a good song, and it could be worse as Black Lace are only remembered for Agadoo! 😂 …and just in case the forum police are monitoring for thread drift, does anyone have a good recipe for pulp fritters with peanut sauce? I was lucky enough to be at that one too, but it was difficult to see at times through all the smoke.....

It was 95 at Glastonbury mate. The whole place was like a forest and there were spiders and bats everywhere....
My other half was at that - one of *the* headline performances by all accounts.
Yeah, the same year I believe pulp stepped in for the stone roses.... I don't believe a word about squires collar bone, I reckon they just knew they weren't prepared.... Pulp were fantastic though.....

I saw the cure at Glastonbury in 95 (I think) and they were awesome.... I'm not a massive fan so I sat at the back under a tree, but it was a great show.... …just the one tree, or a forest? 😉 It was 95 at Glastonbury mate. The whole place was like a forest and there were spiders and bats everywhere....

That's the one. Butch Cassidy was Rain Drops Keep Falling on my Head. Hey, I love Dylan as a recording artist which is why it's all the more disappointing he was so shockingly bad live. Like he was making a point that he'd rearranged every song into a 12 bar blues shuffle style so people wouldn't be getting what they wanted. I'm surprised. Any fan of Dylan should know he has a habit of being a complete dick at live shows. He has a long history of deliberately P?!sing off audiences. Shame, because he is a good artist. On the other side of things, I saw The Cure about 20 years ago and they were absolutely amazing. They played 2½ hours and it was like listening to a recording of every song you would ever wish them to play. (If you are a fan, obviously ) I saw the cure at Glastonbury in 95 (I think) and they were awesome.... I'm not a massive fan so I sat at the back under a tree, but it was a great show....

Where's jocks dinners gone? I'm guessing he's gone for a round of golf at St Andrews, and is currently (approximately) 400 over par.... And still at the first hole.... Can you imagine how crap you would have to be at golf to take over 400 shots on a Par 4 hole that is only 376 yards long?! Maybe more likely if it were a Par 5 mind …. I actually landed a tee shot about 4 yards from the hole at Ashton court once.... Turned out it was the wrong green....
