What's going on? These days we get more spam than tips. I understand the lack of industry gossip (nobody in the music biz gives a shit anymore) but there are some great tracks around - Some Nights, Walks Like Rihanna, Impossible... doesn't anybody (with a few noticeable exceptions like Giles and our Mancunian poster) like music anymore?

Spammers seem to be squeaking past our Capcha. Must upgrade.

Well no. I dont think I do like (most new) music any more.I am absolutely bored stiff and irritated by much of it and I have
only liked a handful of chart hits so far this year.

Even so, I do listen to everything posted here, and if I thought anybody was going to look I might post a few new things too.

Their dates are at www.mokoomba.com/agenda/ (Cambridge on the 27th).

Not pop music per se. But I still prefer it to most of the tepid indie stuff being sent my way.
