Headliners 2015

[toppo]

Thanks for the thingy. This forum never fails to impress me

[Winslow Leach]

I still think heart attacks his best. Although possibly cos that's on at the minute. And just finished small change. This may be prejudicing my suggestions but I don't think so.

I think heart attack was my first Waits album, but I hardly ever listen to it now. You've persuaded me to give it another spin tomorrow.

"THE MENU"

"THE MENU"

Gretchen, stop trying to make "fetch" happen, it's not going to happen.

It's always been called "the menu". You just haven't been cool enough to know that.

[Superunknown]

I'm sure this has already been asked and dismissed. But how about The Cure? Though that would seem a little too like R+L 2012 especially if Flo were to sub as well.

[Woffy]

The Cure aren't on the Menu, Sir.

[Guest]

The Cure aren't on the Menu, Sir.

Surely the chef can put something together? After all, we've had The Cure so many times in the past.

[Superunknown]

The Cure aren't on the Menu, Sir.

I'll just take a Radiohead then please.

[Spindles]

I tried listening to Kanye this afternoon, in the name of science. At least I tried.

[Andy0808 v5]

I'd like to Order The Cure, with a side of Pixies and a Pint of New Order. Thank you sir.

Fuck me that's some faith you've placed in a senile old fools Internet post!!

You familiar with waits at all? If not you could be in for an expensive ride after that takes a hold of you.

Yeah perhaps! Not really familiar with Tom Waits and am always open to suggestions and I was sold. Listening to Heartattack and Vine currently, Saving All My Love is a cracker. Pulp, Suede, The Verve etc all music I grew up listening to and I do struggle to get into anyone past the 2000's so have decided to work backwards instead.

I've been listening to Kanye all weekend (admittedly I did like his music before the announcement, regardless of how much of a lunatic he is). His first two albums are probably what you'd want to listen to, and his fifth album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is one of the best albums ever recorded.

But, again, the man is a lunatic.

I prefer 'The Agenda'. Maybe even 'The Flight Plan'.

'The Menu' should be the name of the line-up poster.

Yeah, it's a slow day.

Agreed. think Graduation was a good album in all fairness.

Ive also been doing this over the weekend. Over on the Kayne thread I was recommended My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. To my complete surprise, I'm actually enjoying some of it! And I've never been enticed by this genre before.

MInd you, last year I bought Funeral to try and get into Arcade Fire (which is more my genre), but after many many listens I struggled to embrace it's appeal.

I like Graduation too, but I put it a notch below those other three. Just don't ask me why Yeezus got good reviews.

[Waapster]

No love for 'the hreat of saturday night'? Worth it for 'san diego serenade' alone. I'm not a fan of much post swordfishtrombones, really.

I'm a big, ugly 51 year old and San Diego Serenade makes me cry every time.

I like your thinking, but the 'the menu' will always be 'the menu'

[marcwilson87]

Every time Tom Waits gets mentioned on this thread I end up sticking him on again.

Honestly forgot how genius Closing Time is. Cheers for bringing it up again!

[Bisque]

I wish this was on the menu....

[Badlands]

This headliner thread is at its best when we're not speculating headliners.

[oneeye]

I'd like No. 666 from the menu

[rebus]

This headliner thread is at its best when we're not speculating headliners.

Please try and stay on topic.

[rinzeanne]

Yes please! Very much like their new album!
