It is films like this that prove what a mad, demented, world we live in. It cost a million to make and is total shit yet made over a 100 million(us). People actually paid to go see this. In my perfect world people like that, and those that run red lights, should be strapped to a chair and made to watch the dreadful John Carter on a constant loop.

Anyway on a happy note Judge Dredd is soon upon us :-)

ha, well speaking of people that run red lights, I went through a red light on my bike (green man, no pedestrians, it's the done thing in the centre of manchester) and a cop skidded in front of me with his siren on LAPD style...

I've been resisting commenting on this, because at present nothing can be proven, but in a town near me a woman mounted the pavement and mowed down and killed a 22 year old, hoodie wearing bloke on a bmx. She has been charged with causing death by dangerous driving and I for one will be awaiting to court case to hear the details. I certainly have suspicions as to what happened and why, but it would be wrong to comment until the facts are known.

I have noticed alot of anti-cyclist sentiment from certain sections of public opinion in recent months though. In my own town the council painted in cycle lanes, they can't be used as they are used as parking spaces, meaning that the cyclists have to chance it on further out in the traffic or ride on the pavement.

I'm a pedestrian, so I've never been on either side of the argument.

I'd bet my life that most people don't every so often. It just happens. I have never got in a car and gone on a journey for more than 2 miles without seeing someone else breaking the law or highway code in some way. I know I've done a few classic violations of traffic law depending on the state I'm in mentally. We all break the law from time to time, most of us stick to it fairly rigidly but there's that 1% of the time driven by all sorts of impulses and motivations that make you go "ah fuck it" every now and then. Absolutely no-one is perfect, and if we were it'd be a conformist world without chaos; robotic and cultureless. It's in our nature to indulge in stupid acts of defiance.

As a pedestrian, cyclist, and a motorist, I'm not pro or anti any of the three groups.

I'm just anti c**ts that ignore other road users and think they're above the law.

      I would be surprised if they don't, given 2022 was the twentieth I imagine next year is going to be pushed as the 25th anniversary so having the most local big name artist possible headline seems natural. Maybe SFA are being saved for then too?

      2027 Headliners

      By archiegow · Posted

      I’d be incredibly surprised if she was in the headline conversation at all. At best I could say a high Pyramid slot but I reckon maybe Other headliner against a rock act like Fender or even Other sub (where I have her in my predictions). I’d say Gracie Abrams is pulling similar if not better numbers to Tate and she was third down on the Other last year.

      Sophie Williams (journalist and Mercury Prize judge) was on Huw Stephens' roundtable last week, said she'd love to see Overmono headline Green Man. Does feel like it's bound to happen. 2027 is surely on the cards seeing as they're about to release a new album
