It would be one for the ages. Currently on the 82 set from Milton Keynes, I saw them on the same tour at Elland Road and it was amazing, same set list on the farm would be stunning. That's made me jealous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh right! I hope Neutral Milk Hotel come back at some point in future. They were everything you'd want and more the last time they did some shows but Jeff Mangum doesn't seem keen on doing more.

Beloved of crimson faced grandpas who hang on Jeremy Clarkson's every word, yet simultaneously doing things like Lily of the Valley and Nevermore and opera. They're a bit like ABBA and Ziggy-period Bowie - despite the fact that confused boomers and racist mums on Facebook hold them dear, they're still really good.

I'm not sure if I buy this Schroedinger's Gammon theory I think you have to accept that if you like a truly diverse range of music some of it will taste of ham.

Surely a Gammon Uncertainty Principle would be along the lines of the more precisely you listen to "You Really Got Me" in your wellend, parka, and moped combo the less certain it becomes that Ray Davies is one of Britain's greatest songwriters.

That one is kind of true though, I’ve long maintained that The Masterplan is their best album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
