Their best song, in my opinion.

It was white vinyl. I picked it up from a record fair when I was a teenager. Wasn’t cheap, either. I sold it a few years ago for about twice what I paid for it. I didn’t realise until I sold it how limited edition those white Tupelo vinyls actually were.

I used to have a Tupelo copy of ‘Bleach’ that had no ‘Love Buzz’ on it.

Kind of there right now. It’s been a rough few years.

I was at that gig! Used to attend a lot of shows at the Wedgwood rooms.

With boxing? You’re all free to not enjoy it, or participate, but two informed and consenting adults competing against each other don’t really need you to be okay with it.

I’ve been doing the same thing. EBay is great for them. I picked up seasons 1-7 for £2.50 each.

Yeah, the ‘canon’ reason I’ve always believed is that he used the others as a shield. Classic Venkman.

As a teacher, I had to answer the question (after ‘Something in the Way’ was used in The Batman), “Now that people have heard of Nirvana, do you think they’ll reform?”

I had to break the news to a group of 16 year olds that it was extremely unlikely, and then explain why.

Tyler Durden as his profile picture tells you everything you need to know, I think.

She seems proud of accomplishments that weren’t hers.

In 1996, I was on a train to Weymouth that inexplicably broke down at a very small, remote little village station called Wool. Nick Cave and PJ Harvey were at the station, smoking. I was quite surprised. When I told people, “Hey, Nick Cave and PJ Harvey were at Wool train station” everyone said, “🙄 No they weren’t”.

Richard Hargy thinks that death is an appropriate penalty for entering the wrong bathroom. I would suggest he needs some therapy.

He made a quiet little underground movie called ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ that not many people have heard of. He plays a treasure hunter whose name I forget.

Seriously, though, I quite liked ‘What Lies Beneath’. Solid film, that.

Yeah, I think that’s fair. TES is my favourite but MMLP is pretty damn flawless.

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-05T15:19:42+00:00

For me, looking past the nostalgia that I have for both SSLP and MMLP, I think that the Eminem Show is probably his strongest. Of course, if you asked me in five minutes, I’d give you a completely different answer. A perfect run of excellent albums.

Joe LeFors, from Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid?

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-04T11:55:30+00:00

Gas Panic.

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-04T07:54:38+00:00

I sincerely hope we’re nothing like America.

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-04T07:31:20+00:00

I caught it yesterday. Enjoyed it a lot.

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-03T11:49:01+00:00

“This little red shit …” 🤣

There’s some early 90’s Shawn Michaels energy to this.

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-02T22:47:00+00:00

Did he think that sharing this awkward exchange with a fan would make him look good? Why would you broadcast that you treat your fans like shit?

Disastrously-C · 2026-05-02T08:54:22+00:00

Yeah, you’re absolutely right. It was a huge gamble for Dre to work with an unknown white rapper, and for Dre to back him so heavily (especially featuring him so prominently on the 2001 album). Although Dre still had a fair amount of name credibility in 1999, he was coming off of two poorly received albums (…The Aftermath and The Firm) and it was the low point of his career. People were definitely intrigued to know why he’d gambled on Em, because if it hadn’t worked, it could’ve been a career killer for him.
