I bought some when my vicks inhaler ran out, used it for a while then got really sick of the smell. I love vicks though, I could get addicted snorting that al lthe time. I have not sniffed it for a while now. Which reminds me I must buy some on Sunday when I am out at the shop.

it doesnt matter what style a musicain plays, whether they play pop or rock or soul or punk or blues. That does not determine if they are good or not, it is what they play,how they pplay and what they play, and above all that it is personal preferance.

I would say I am not a pop fan at all but I do know that Mark King is an amazing bass player, and that is about as far as I go with pop or it might make me look like a closet pop fan

I tihnk avril can play and sing, I thin kshe is ok for a wee burd starting out young. She can only get better.

I know a very good female guitar player, she is not famous and her main instrument is the fiddle but she blows me away on a guitar and not only that, she is retired!! So she is at least 60 years old, but looks about 67. She might even be 70 but she can strum,pluck and jam.

Alan,

I quite like it but  icannot bevy on it, one glass with a bit extra water than normal is ok, but for £46 a bottle I wouldnt go out and buy it.
Lagavulin is my mates favourite whisky of all time and he can drink it with just ice, hmmm, na, not for me either. I like highland and speyside malts, but my favourite is bladnoch but at £45 a bottle and I can drink it like water itself, I dont buy it that much, only for special occasions.
All Islay malts are very peaty as well as Jura malt, but if you go for a 21 year old they do taste a lot better.

the exact reason why I will cheer on and clap anyone that gets up and sings at karaeoke when sober and especially if I think they are awful, they get a bigger clap for doing it.

and to a certain expent same as anyone that posts songs of their own on here.
I know that some people have written songs but will not share them in case they seem rubbish or too lovey dovey.

All attempts at singing or songwriting is good. Some songs in this section I have thought have not been that good ( not saying what ones, I am not mean) but I have tried a lot out, and some that I thought looked not very good turned out to be very good wee songs. and ones that looked good, I just couldnt do them. So everything is worth a bash.

Ken

wouldnt say a crook, just a manipulative greedy swine he is/was human after all.

Ken

nope lena
I have not, not yet anyway

cheers for that.

moddish @ the greasy bikers and pill poppers.

I still say all these so called "mod " bands were not actually mods, or they were but not the music.
I see "mod" as a fashion not the music. It is only because the fashion sensed "mods" like a certain bands music that they were called a mod band, but the music was and is rock music.

just like punk bands, the music is rock it is punks that was into the music.

Now if we get onto Ravers and rave music, then yeah it is all cr*p but rave msuic is in fact Dance msuic that ravers like. NO idea why they would like that, I tihnk they are too much out their faces on drugs to really know what they are listening too.lol

anyway, back on topic.....
Paul Weller called himself and probably still does, a mod. even though they started out as a punk band. The music? well ........ it is still rock music whether punks or mods like them. Bruce Foxton considers himself to be a punk even though he dressed like a mod and now he does again. ( and I cannot wait until the 15th of december when i go to see them, also got some great videos on youtube of "two from the jam")

So, all this stuff about styles of msuic and fans, it is the fans that carry the label in terms of rockers and mods. Even though there could still be a good argument to consider some rock music as mod music because it was people that considered themselves to be mods that liked that particular music. And if a band said they were rockers but mods liked them, they would not have much of a choice but to go along with the fans in what they want ( thats if the band wanted to stay successful)

I think the things with mods and rockers was simply the dress sense and what they drove rather than the music.

I love what is considered mod music and also punk music and rock music and country music and folk music and some blues and country. What am I classed as?

too long a name.

I just tried adding songs and it worked fine.

Hi Phil,
I can tell you that the who and the kinks are both rock bands, as are a lot of bands from the 60's that were classed as "mods".
It was more the style of clothes they wore, nicely pressed trousers with a firm crease down the middle, a shirt with a big collar and a three buttoned jacket. And when it was cold they wore a parka. ( a british army coat) over their nice clothes.
They drove about in scooters ( just as the film Quadraphenia shows) and this is probably why the rockers and mods did not get on well. The rockers that were mainly big bike riders didnt see scooters as real motor bikes and probably a lot of slagging off went on that led to fights.

Rockers Were into led zep, sabbath, stones, and more that I cannot think of right now.

Although you have entitled this ENGLAND : the sixties etc, this was all over britain but mainly stemmed from London. the so called mod bands played in Scotland,wales and Northern Ireland too so it was not confined to just England.

The film quadraphenia shows a good story of one guy's life in the 60's when the fights were rife with rockers and mods but people have to remember that it is a film, made up through fiction but based around a true fight at Brighton in 1965. I know a few that thought this film was based on a true story and everything they saw is real, just like some think braveheart was all real.
