I don't have any cool friends, but when my clunky, nerdy ones come over I whip out the brass band CD's and we GET DOWN, especially to the Williams Fairey Band playing "10 Acid House Anthems", quite a treat actually. Let's Get Brutal (Nitro Deluxe) and Can U Dance (DJ Fast Eddie) are faves.

Oh yes, it's quite a piece of work, I have no idea how I aquired it, I do think I may have gotten a tat that night though.

I must admit to vague feeling of embarassment about "the best of Dave Dee Beaky Meg and Titch", but it's the "swinging hit as played by the massed military bands",or someting like that, that's truely dire. T' other half accquired it froma dead relative and won't chuck it

I used to have the best of dance 97 or some gubbins that I got one Christmas. Never been my sort of music but I had to look thankful at the time. It got nicked the year after...

Hey, here's probably an excellent place to ask...
...there's a new cd out of Gregorian monks singing "recent" songs (Coldplay's "clocks" comes to mind)...I've been seriously considering finding it and buying it...
...am I un
beyond redemption ?

I don't mind the Gregorian monks, but doing modern hits? It's like those bloody pan pipes CDs. It's just wrong, I think

...I have one of the panpipes cds as well 
(It was on $5, and I wanted an instrumental of "something" by the Beatles 
!)
...and this is why I don't even pretend that I'm cool, no one would believe me

Who'd want to be normal anyway?

I'm considered weird wherever I go. I like to think that's a good thing...

It definitely saves time for me...if people already assume I'm mad, I don't have to worry about pretending to be normal !
