I think there's an ugly sense of entitlement showing up in the Clinton campaign.
O please god, jesus, the holy spirit and the fucken angels on high... she's not actually going to win is she?

I'm fascinated by the nature of offensiveness, and I've been studying it casually for years.
My favourite/least favourite/t-shirt slogan ever: I eat more pussy than cervical cancer
Actually felt ill when I saw it, which surprised me.

I think there's a little something to my point without being rude.
The repetitive and simplified nature of much dance music means you don't have to think too much about the deep and meaningful lyrics or complex chord structures, which probably makes it very good for dancing too, or driving to, a soundtrack while doing something else.No one's going to bite, are they? Please god no...

Burial
Can I just say, and only slightly on-topic, that I've found Burial to be a lot of hype and no substance. Quite boring, actually, and attracting attention away from other acts who IMO are much more worthy of it: Kode9, for example, whose recent album Memories of the Future (feat. The Spaceape) is just frankly incredibly good.
Metro Area CD while cruising Lewis Pass / Southern Alps
Peter, I wasn't being facetious. Did it really make perfect sense? (In terms of listening to an artist called "Metro" Area while traveling in the remote heart of the country?) If so, how?

(roughan is hardly unskilled but he is obviously out of touch with the wants of the audience)
No, I rather think that after 30 or so years at it, he's lost a bit of hearing and over-compensates for it, at everyone else's expense. Common problem.

I don't think that we're going to see an increase in gig going though, the kids have got other thing on their minds, (playstation, supped up cars and herbal highs) and the elderly take offense at the volume.
Russell, I think he's talking about you ;)

the Gordons' 'Coalminers Song' sounds almost exactly the same backwards as it does forwards ...
I wouldn't be surprised if that was true of most of their catalogue!

There was a wonderfully surreal "Soup Nazi" moment though:
"You eat here or take away?"
"Eat here, please"
"No! We closed! You take away!"
I'm totally going to add that to my Kebab Shop Guy routine.
