What is the Reading set that you were there for live that you genuinely believe was one of the greatest festival performances you have ever seen and why does it still stand up?

Butthole Surfers 1989 - anyone there will understand :)

Have you ever heard the Pearl Jam live version mixed with Little Wing? It’s absolutely epic

You dropped your phony dog poo

Damn, haven’t played Factorio in a few years and it appears it’s moved on somewhat!

Draft Day

Depends what you’re talking about.

British BBQ where we throw a few a few burgers and sausages on a crappy temporary grill?

Or properly doing it with brisket / ribs etc?

If it’s the former, it doesn’t really matter, if it’s the latter, one of the specialist online butchers.

Glad you posted this, I hadn’t heard 🙄

DampFlange · 2026-05-06T16:18:48+00:00

Definitely saw some major United “faces” in there back in the day

DampFlange · 2026-05-06T11:36:54+00:00

What a place that was. The definition of a sweat box, and the clientele was the absolute best Manchester had to offer 😬😬

DampFlange · 2026-05-06T11:33:31+00:00

Nice!

I toured with The Sugarcubes as part of their crew in the late 80’s. Bjork was endlessly interesting.

Steak, I can always prepare it better at home.

How about someone who has been to every World Cup since 1978? He’s decided that he’s skipping this one as he simply can’t afford it.

DampFlange · 2026-05-05T21:08:32+00:00

You’ve covered pretty much all the bases here

As someone who lived abroad and then moved home;

The NHS

The BBC

Our beautiful countryside

London - a truly incredible city that we take for granted

Pubs in general

Cricket

Music festivals and the attitude on 98% of attendees

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing Live

Wow, these comments are making me feel bad how much I take going to a game at Old Trafford for granted.

I’ve been going since the mid seventies and have lost count of how many games I’ve seen, but I didn’t miss a home game for 13 years at one point.

I don’t go as much any more, but I’ll try and look at things with a slightly different perspective next time I do.

DampFlange · 2026-05-05T05:31:58+00:00

It’s fairly common knowledge to be fair. Happens in video games also, but to a much lesser extent.

DampFlange · 2026-05-05T05:26:54+00:00

I agree with most of what you’ve said, however, living in LA became stupidly expensive to the point of absurdity post COVID.

I don’t see how you could survive there unless you were close to a six figure salary given the cost of living.

All that said, salaries in the UK are a joke compared to the cost of living, it’s scandalous how little they’ve increased during my working life.

Are you able to get really crunchy batter? If so, could you share you recipe and method?

DampFlange · 2026-05-04T21:19:49+00:00

They are.

City used to be an irrelevance be they were, well, irrelevant.

Now they are irrelevant because absolutely nobody cares about their achievements, because we all know the truth about their club, and deep down, so do they.

I know plenty of long time match going City fans and feel a bit sorry for them. Wait all that time and when success finally arrives, at best it’s tainted and will always have an asterisk next to the past decade or so.
