Aargh , I think I just got up on the wrong side of the bed yesterday. No
offense to Who fans, Television fans, abstract scatological art fans, as
T.V. says: bla bla bla....

Yup , I know.

For all interested, The Big Takeover is an american music publication that
is very thick - more record reivews per cubic inch of magazine than any
other rag - hell, I think they'd review the moosical tinklings of your toe
nails as they bounce off the bathroom floor if you sent them a tape of it .
I like the magazine for their exhastive interviews ( The Bob Mould one from
The Last Dog and Pony Show era comes to mind ), their non-slick - non
Revolver/Spin/Rollingstone look . Here is their web site for further info:
http://www.bigtakeover.com/ . Someone mentioned Mojo - and of course I love
Mojo too, for different reasons. Both magazine cover pretty dead on the
bands and performers I am interested in .

I agree too , I don't mind stuff going off topic - every thread goes off
topic eventually - there is probably a mathematical theory that models just
such behavior - I just get pissy when it happens to my thread right at the
beginning. Thread drift makes the threads all the more interesting ...
sometimes.

Well said !
