Aiden Curran's article on busking. 9520 1
Started by vapourmile
Like a lot of amateur writers Aiden's blog on the matters starts ok, and once he's warmed to the task he just goes through some stream of conciousness rubbish based on his opinion of what other's opinion is.
Yes, busking is less salutary than many professional music forms. But arguably, it causes far less wide reaching environmental damage than is indirectly being caused by individuals working in many other industries. Many things in our society receive social sanction by mere majority opinio...

Hi guys, as you can see I'm a new member to this community. So far I can say im really impressed with the layout and the content but to be fair there is an awful lack of content here.

I'm willing to submit content whenever I can, which would probably be a gig review of an album review. Is there any way we can increase the membership to ...

Choice Music Prize shortlist 12987 5
Started by aidan
So, is it a foregone conclusion that Villagers will win Perhaps (and hopefully) not: 5/2 with Paddy Power at the time of writing, tight but hardly unbackable: www.paddypower.com/bet/music/choice-music-prize
Still great value on other runners: Cathy Davey at 8/1 and Two Door Cinema Club at 10/1 - surely worth a punt. (I'd be happy if either of those two won. Or, basically, anyone except Villagers.)
Runners and riders (10 go to post):

CLUAS 2010 Writers Poll results 9798 2
Started by aidan
'Democracy is the right of the village idiot to have his say', Lenin apparently said.
On a completely unrelated note, the CLUAS writers (including self) have voted on the best albums of 2010 and the CLUAS gaffer (more of a Stalin man) has just returned the results: www.cluas.com/poll/2010/best-albums-writers.asp
All reactions, fuming and cheering below. For my part:
Yay - Villagers didn't top the poll: a seriously overrated album - definitely not best Irish album of the year.
Nay - No...

Paddy Casey ; jesus, even he looks like he's pissed off with his own songs as he's singing them.
The Coronas; James Blunt on speed. I thought you couldn't get away with being this s**te anymore. Apparantley I was wrong.
Paul Heaton; He made a joke about his last solo album selling only 1 copy. He probably exagerrated.

Sufjan's The Age of Adz and Neil Young's Le Noise... 9210 2
Started by stephen
... is it just me or are both these records just difficult/annoying to listen toLe Noise first. I think some of the songs on there are strong - nothing too different thought. So they're given a reverb/echo treatment that's disconcerting to say the least. But I'm clearly missing something as this record is getting very strong reviews. I'd be interested in the CLUAS view.The Age of Adz is just plain bad, as far as I can tell. I'm sure it's a reflection of Sufjan's state of mind but it's a deflati...

What is Belly Dance? 5883 0
Started by ROWAN11
Many Belly Dance NYC professionals pronounce belly dancing is the ancient type of dance, having ancestry in all very old civilizations. Perhaps the utmost misapprehension concerning belly dancing is that it is proposed to divert men.
All over history, this ritualized appearance has frequently been executed for extra women, usually for the duration of fertility rites or parties organizing a young woman for marriage. In the majority cases, the being there of men is not allowable.
