Name Your Shame

Hahaha Luscious Lucy I too have given myself away really badly with my Heart radio Time Tunnel knowledge - both in terms of my age and my dodgy taste in music... it's embarassing, but there is some secret pride in there somewhere....

first gig...Bryan Adams - Hammersmith Odeon '85 (dated to show that at least it was pre-Kevin Costner/Robin Hood yrs)

second gig, a few weeks later... Rick Springfield - Hamm Odeon as well.

coincidentally, support for both gigs was a band called 'Scorched Earth'. so, they're the first band i've ever seen twice!

first single...Men At Work 'Down Under'...when it went to #1

I've got the first 4 Robbie albums. Was a bit gutted that the RW Glasto rumour turned out to be bollocks. I'd enjoy watching him. And I do love his cover of Back For Good.

I also own 'Back to Bedlam' by James Blunt. 'You're Beautiful' is complete and total shite, but otherwise there's nowt wrong with that album. I remember seeing him at Glastonbury in (I think) 2005 - before it was cool to hate him - and most people in the audience quite liked him.

I was a big fan of Travis until they released 12 Memories which was utter gash. Their headline performance in 2000 was ace.

Nothing wrong with Ocean Colour Scene - stop being such f**king snobs. :P Still love them and don't even remotely think of them as a 'guilty pleasure'.

Shakin' Stevens would be up there, but his abysmal performance in 2008 has put me right off him.

First band I saw was Dire Straits (oh the shame. . . ). I suppose he's a good guitarist at least, this was Brothers In Arms era though :P

Thankfully the next 2 were the Cult and the Damned

Meat Loaf! I have been listening to him on the way to work for the past 3 weeks love him! He'd go down a storm on the pyramid stage!

Also i like Scouting for Girls too and a band called Hocus Pocus who sang a song (in the 70's?) called Focus...its great but very uncool according to my boyfriend...it has yodelling in it and some funny voices :P

Also i like Lady Gaga but i think she's cool so she doesnt belong in this thread.....yes, really!...and Take That are amazing they just get better and better!

Any of the above. We have a winner. That's simply horrible. That list is so bad, it would make ampersand shudder with horror.

ANY Abba at all is unforgiveable, but the soundtrack to a shite film based on the 'music' of Abba is beyond evil - it's like being a serial killer, and keeping a scrap book of all the press cuttings of your grisly crimes, using the victims' blood as glue.

    • 1. Baby Dave - Billy 2. A - Prang   Not really got round to listening to many more in May so not really fair to vote but shoutout to EPs from Bleech 9:3 - Bleech 9:3 & Villanelle - Measly Means
    • Guitarricadelafuente was bloody brilliant tonight. This is going to be a very Spanish focussed year for me. Rusowsky dragging out Las Ketchup on Saturday has the potential to be a Prima magic moment.
    • £112 for standard entry. No thank you.
    • Meanwhile Gracie Abrams is £92 for the cheapest with the average price around £160 for lower tier and £103 standing.   First time in a while I've gone from a definite yes to a definite no on price alone.   Amble was £31 this morning.
