Yeah, they're all British. And I agree about the rats. At our school pet show I got to look after Ashley's rats cos no one else would go near them. They were lovely.

You have to admit rats are tough fighters and have been known to engage in questionable activity, but they're not demonically evil like the squirrels

Rats aren't demonically evil..read the Rats by James Herbert...now THAT is demonic (or should that be daemonic..whats the difference)

'They've got the drugs I could use but then i don't want any
All that i want is a photograph of Photo Jenny
How will i get one?
I don't know
How will i get one?
I don't know
How will i get her to strike a pose?'
-B&S- Photo Jenny

I used to call myself Photo Jenny, and there's a picture of me at the Broken Violin website (it's a bad photo, I'm trying to find a better one), but I doubt you're interested...

did anyone make it to Oxford for the Radiohead concert? I was in Oxford that day visiting a friend but obviously couldn't get tickets

I couldn't go but I read a review.

It started by saying.

"During most of this concert it was perfect sunshine until a sudden downpoar soaked the audience. If Radiohead were gods then they could control the weather and this would have started the instant that Thom Yorke sang "rain down one me" in the bridge section of Paranoid Android. Instead, sadly, it started about three songs later. This is the only way in which I could tell that Radiohead are not god. It was that good."

It was supposedly the best concert Radiohead have ever played and, therefore, one of the best concerts in Oxford, ever!
They supposedly played all their hit singles and most popular album tracks and B-sides from everything from "The Bends" to "Amnesiac" (they don't really like Pablo Honey any more.)
High&Dry, Fake Plastic trees, Just, Street Spirit, Paraniod android, Karma Police, No surprises, Airbag, Idioteque, Pyramid Song, Knives Out etc. and the ultimate, once only, crowd pleasing encore track...

...CREEP.

I would give almost anything to have gone.

WOW.,,they never play creep anymore..that would've been very cool

ditto. too bad about the rain, I wondered if that might have affected the concert, it managed to shut down the line between London & Oxford that day

'Always to thine own selves be true,
not to fools like me
who change their minds for the sake of rhyming scheme'
Suck my plums
(the question here is whether or not they moderate that....questions questions)

....I went to the oxford gig....bloody brilliant. When they kicked into creep at the end, man the place erupted. If the venue had had a roof, it would have been blown off. Also, if the venue had a roof, i wouldn't have got soaked through...although i thought the rain actually added to the atmosphere.
Funniest moment? Thom dedicating Paranoid Android to Geri Halliwell because 'she was on the same train as me back from Paris'. The crowd cheered, sparking rumours of a Yorke-Halliwell romance...what a mis-match that would be.

Oh God!

Think of the children

scary beyond all reason
