I bought a guitar in a charity shop for a tenner and discovered it was crap. However, adversity can be a powerful driving force, so I thought, if I could write a song on this excuse for a musical instrument, it would probably become an anthem and displace VFR. I have a few chords and lyrics, mostly about former owners which I thought would go down well with the grudge brigade, plus some funky rap in the middle. My vocals could be a little disturbing, as at my age things get a bit croaky. I can't read music but that didn't hamper Abba and the Bee Gees. If Thomas backs out I'll have to shelve it 'cos it mentions him in the last bit. Maybe I could put it on i tunes or something like that so it's downloadable. Edit: Groupies, Glastonbury, drugs, sex, it's all possible!
Billy Cotton, bandleader who recorded Red Red Robin, could not read music, or even play a musical instrument.
If Abba's music were the painted dome in the Sistine Chapel, mine would be the back of a s**t house door. It's different (Green Card)
This is my only home mate, I don't lie. Got that? If you need to be provocative then away you go, but not a very dignified occupation for a grown man.,
Apologies for misreading, but your reputation will at times spawn a misplaced reaction, but my after thought still stands. This is meant to be is fun thread. if you have a beef with Chris, please take it somewhere else ok.
Lol. I am one of the handful of founding members of this (excellent) forum - it’s a bit like taking advice from your 6 year old nephew. Welcome to 606 BTW
He won't take it somewhere else Pat, he's a wimp, been asking him to look me in the eye for years but he's a bottle job is the Petts Wood Pussy. Your PL54 account is back open by the way. Where are the newbies Nick, the ITTV exodus as you called it. This forum is made up of failed mods!!
Cheers for the welcome, and I agree, an excellent forum, but it could be even more excellent if swords were put back into their respective scabbards. My own sword is seldom drawn, it's surface as bright as the sun, it's cutting edge the width of an atom. Yours is blunt and blood covered from the constant attempts to cut and divide the fan base, your family...would you divide your own sons with it? Black, white, Charlton, Palace, we all share the same DNA. I cannot change your life Nick, but I can give you the tools to change it yourself. If you worked with me and others we could make this oft mocked forum the mould for all future forums. All you have to do is make one simple statement, "I've screwed up on forums, can we start again please" The good will embrace and forgive, All over, simple! Without the weight of self expectation you'd be free to use your infectious energy and quick mind to make this forum buzz. You were the inspiration for the song, for I feared that a section of our fanbase would imitate you, and follow blindly into a world of suspicion and dislocation. Life and the hope within it is akin to a sky scraper. Those with good hearts and without agenda reside in the penthouse, whilst those that wish to create divisions in community dwell in the basement with the flames of hell licking around their sorry back sides. If your decision is to remain status quo, then those that stand with you will be judged accordingly. I don't need to be liked, because I do my best at all times, and tomorrow I'll do even better. There is no meaning to life, we all die. What we do before that happens is what matters. Decide on your purpose Nick, and don't shy away from the love of your fellow man. A new era? Entirely your decision. Good luck.
Thought I'd go the Tracy Emin route, simple and incomprehensible, so recorded the piano going down the stairs...will make a dramatic intro I think.
Just for you Nick. Duchaterlet is the most unlikely to sell the real estate, and it's very doubtful that he is pissing TS around about renting, more likely TS wanting the whole lot but hasn't got the ready's because of monies commited elsewhere. I think we are playing a waiting game with around 40 million offered as in take it or I walk.
Somebody told me recently that I knew more about football than RD, and I've been a little smug ever since.
Hi Chris, I'm not Pat, it's just when I joined, different members told me who I was, so to keep everyone happy I use a different name everyday. Monday: Nigel Andersen. Tuesday: Major Anfersen. Wednesday: Pat Andersen. Thursday: I A Andersen Feiday: Galen Andersen. Saturday: Doug Andersen. My scandalous IQ rules out Bexley Andersen, so still missing a Sunday name. I don't mind Nick so much, or any other member....it's only momentary differences.
Now we have confirmation I'll put the song together over the weekend. Thank f**k Elliot didn't get the gig, as it would have been near impossible to write a song with that much dullness in it. My first attempt at lyrics was in 1969 when I penned the immortal "You're gonna get your f**king heads kicked in) I've moderated since then, the title of the new song being "Cry for love" Yeah, sounds a bit soft, but reserve judgement until you hear it.
