Ukraine v ENGLAND tonight.....

Drew 0-0......Nearly there.

 

 

It was pathetic. I honestly think Crystal Palace could have won that game. Possibly even Luton. Ukraine were very poor, there for the taking and the England manager failed miserably to punish them by putting out a predictable, boring team with a number of players who were completely unable to pass to a team-mate. His substitution was ineffective and he didn't use any more to change the game. Inept management and a very poor performance, which will be glossed due to the fact that on paper it was a reasonable result.

 

 

I think you guys are in the wrong thread. You should go to the 'The Uninteresting Thread'.

 

 

You may have a point.

 

I shall make amends. Courtesy of the excellent Horrible Histories:

 

Teenage Roman Emperor Elagabalus threw prank dinner parties where his guests had to eat fake food, or had dangerous animals hidden in their bedrooms. He also ran a lottery at the amphitheatre where the prizes could be amazing, or they could be a dead dog or a box of angry bees.

 

You know the Celts didn't go around singing and performing choreographed dance routines, though, right?

Recently finished the Yngwie J Malmsteen book Relentless. Not bad, I did not like however how he referred to Spinal Tap mentioning him in their movie....c'mon Yngwie it was in a music video not the movie, doesn't anyone fact check anything anymore.

 

You want to read 'Watch You Bleed - The Saga Of Guns n' Roses', or, rather, you don't ... it's full of mistakes (how hard can it be to check who plays what in KISS, for example?)

 

 

It amazes me that such a book would get published. Although I suppose that's similar to terrible albums being released by record labels. If it meets the bill of what they're after at the time, it'll do, regardless of quality, or in the book's case, veracity.

 

Maybe we should write a biography of GnR as well. I'll start:

 

"Axl and Slash both attended Smethwick Green Comprehensive School in Birmingham, where they shared a love of cricket and Shakespearean sonnets. When they first met, in Mr Bastard's detention for late submission of Geography homework, they can have had no idea that number one albums, world tours, knighthoods and guest appearances on 'Coronation Street' were to follow in a few short years. Of course, they were then known by their original names, Barry Borthwicke and Alessandro Montelimar..."

 

Even then, Axl's ego had assumed gigantic proportions, and had already taken over the captaincy of the cricket team. After de-selecting the entire team and replacing them with an increasingly bizarre choice of replacements (including an opening batsman who wore a McDonald's Happy Meal box around his nether regions), Axl went on to tour the world replaying the finest games from the team's past in the hope that spectators would be fooled into thinking they were watching something of substance and worth ...

 

 

 

 

World War Z

I am so apprehensive about this as the book was so good and unique.

 

Don't expect the book. From what I hear -- I haven't read the book -- it's completely different. But it's still one of the most intense zombie flicks I've seen.

 

 

The only thing the film shares with the book is the title ...

 

 

Now you what you've done - you've set him off. Here we go...

 

I'm not saying a word ... my feelings about the film when compared to the book have been well-documented elsewhere ...

If there are any songs that are heavy and not a case of, "listen to what we can do with some musical instruments ... for ages and ages and ages", I'll happily check them out, but I don't hold out much hope...

I can certainly help you out on the Marillion front I'm not sure if anything they've ever done would fit in with your definition of 'heavy' (although something like 'Forgotten Sons' probably comes close), but they certainly have their darker moments - both lyrically and musically ... 'White Russian', 'Slainte Mhath', 'Incubus', 'Assassing', 'Fugazi', 'Freaks', 'Tux On', most of the 'Misplaced Childhood' album (the 'hits' aside) ... and Fish's solo work certainly has its moments - the sublime 'Vigil In A Wilderness Of Mirrors' being a case in point ...

You may be right.. I am thinking it's only going to get better, least I HOPE it is... I kinda like how they changed the Legend of Sleepy Hollow a bit as I don't recall the headless Horseman being one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse....

Which one is he?
