The only time I remember conversing with you in the last few months was the Thomas cook thread when, yes you guessed it, it was William who scurried off. As for sniping, well who's sniping here?
Projection, William. How's your mum, by the way? Are you still telling her about your chats on here?
Started with Travel Agents, dipped into racism, had a little segue into drugs and is now on the South Wales and West music scene. What a thread.
Nothing more annoying at a gig than a ten deep bar where when you do finally get there you can barely get out again and lose a good portion of your drinks....sounds like the tramshed is a bit of a nightmare, maybe youngsters will put up with that but not in your mid 40’s hey. Love the way you know exactly how many gigs you’ve been to this year btw gunman, forever on it with the stats.
What did you head to the concord for?
I've been keeping a list of the gigs I attend for the last decade simply because I often forget who I've seen, especially when it comes to support bands. It's an age thing.....
For me, not being able to get to the toilet when I need to at a gig is more of a concern than the bar. Again, it's an age thing.....
I went to Brighton just after the last bank holiday to see Bodega. They're a band from Brooklyn I stumbled across last summer at Clwb Ifor Bach and I instantly fell in love with them. Great people, too. So far I've seen them live five times in Cardiff (twice), Berlin, Leicester and Brighton. I have my own bespoke Bodega t-shirt made for me by the female vocalist. Such a pathetic fanboy, even at the age of 52.
I wasn't calling for a return of that religion per se, rather the greater cohesiveness of former times on which it was built. British society had certain norms and practices (culture). The central pillar of that, in my opinion, was/is the family structure which with few exceptions once consisted of married men and women who lived together, and sprog dropping didn't commence until they had walked down an aisle - let's call it the Christian way. Then in the 80s armies of young women caught on that the state was promoting the weakening of what was the traditional family unit through the benefits system. That ultra liberalism gave the message that they could monetise their womb to become wholly reliant on everyone else via a raft of welfare payments that included a free council property thrown in and with it an element of independence, and all for getting knocked-up. A great many chose to reach for the dependency carrot as a way to dodge the 9-5 grind while those who sought a better standard of living, and rose at the crack of dawn, were compelled to pay for their lifestyle choice.
Today there's 2nd and sometimes 3rd generation underclass (chavs) all over, so many of whom appear to have no respect for anyone or anything. I daresay other factors such as dumbing-down, easy accessibility to cheap drugs and internet pornography, celebrity worship, almost a decade of austerity policies, rampant decadence and permissiveness is at play, but I'll maintain the prime reason is fractured families and lousy nurturing due to no, occasional or feckless father figures providing guidance.
