Oh yes Paul, definitely I know I SHOULD like him, but its not so much that I dont, but that I just CAN'T! Ive tried mate, honest! But its all that quirkiness, it just get on me nerves! Lightbulbs and fish and egyptians - it just doesnt make any sense to me! And that 'yip yip' one from yesterday??! GAAAAAH!

Aforementioned mate is a MASSIVE fan, loves him and the Soft Boys to bits, has tried (or did do, until we fell out!) for nigh on 20 years to convince me that its worth the fuss, but I just dont get it.

Sadly, I have to admit the same sentiment for Jimi Hendrix and I KNOW thats wrong!

I like Hem though.  And Ani DiFranco.  Does that count?
:o)

And Kate... I want you to know that after I went offline last night, all I could bloody hear in my head was "lack of involvement with the father or over involvement with the mother can result in lack of ability to relate a sexual peeeeeak..." And you KNOW its impossible to only sing a little bit of that song in your head so I had to keep starting from the beginning over and over and over again - and I can't bloody STAND Robyn Hitchcock! ;o) I only know a few of the songs coz I had a mate once who insisted on putting them on compilation tapes for me in the hope I'd grow to like him!

Me:

You can't stand Robyn Hitchcock?!?! Say it ain't so! One of the great British underground mavericks, perversely more popular in the States now than over here. I reckon there is probably quite a bit of crossover between Planes fans and Hitchcock fans (Nick W who posts here is, but if I remember rightly PV2 doesn't share this enthusiasm!)

He's playing at the Fleece Thursday 26th Jan, and I can't wait!
