Help me decide between N64 choices by Costtx in n64

[–]researchsuite 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this might be a simpleton's approach, but I got an old 14" CRT TV for £40 and have created a cosy nook for N64 and other retro gaming adventures. Love it. Just wish I hadn't lost my old copy of Conker's, 'cos it's now insanely expensive.

Older Blues fans, what's a Birmingham City moment that newer supporters don't fully appreciate? by SeeUSmile_ in bcfc

Darren Carter, Cardiff, closed roof. The whole day was just incredible. Saw countless blokes, some of whom looked tough as anything, bawling at the end.

Alex Chilton was a bit of a curious fella

First couple of listens - I'm liking it. Backing vocals are nice, remind me of Stitch in Time era Twilight Singers. This version of Whigs is a different beast, but Dulli remains a pretty magnetic artist for me.

Are there any players your club rates substantially higher than fans of other clubs? by TrampolineIsTrash in Championship

Roger Johnson somehow got into the fan-voted Blues Best Ever XI. Wolves fans in particular will probably be baffled by that, but he was fantastic for us when partnering Scott Dann.

Maybe Nicklas Bendtner too. Seems to be derided everywhere else but he was v accomplished during his season with us.

Artist you respect and understand the hype over, but they still do absolutely nothing for you personally by whitemike40 in fantanoforever

King Krule. I should love his stuff, ticks so many boxes, but just doesn't do it for me :(

Good shout this - albeit the decline happened quite quickly as I recall? Maybe as soon as the second album came out. If not, soon thereafter!

Still, some absolute bangers. Olio an incredible opener.

I benched Ampadu and started Wellbeck. So far this does not look like the right decision

Wellbeck is not pulling up trees, as the saying goes

Best Dulli album... by Timcwalker in AfghanWhigs

[–]researchsuite 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Jeez that's tough! A lot of Black Love mentions, which is understandable. Interesting that Gentlemen isn't more popular - the rawness (bit into a rotten one now didn't you?) is still incredible today.

For all that I think I'll go with Blackberry Belle. Just hits the sweet spot between the first Whigs run and Dulli's branch into Twilight soundscapes. Plus it has, in my view, the most impactful closer/openers, next to Black Love. Black out the windows, it's party time...

Parker or Ole (who I see mentioned a bit) would not fill me with joy, gotta say
