The 'No Negativity' / 'Good karma' thread

I love England and being English, home of the greatest cricketer, footballer, band and me

Warney, Pascal Chimbonda and We Are Scientists? Wrong country, wrong country and wrong country.

 

[steds]

Arcade Fire are Canadian

Which is why they aren't the greatest band in the world.

 

[superkingdave]

neither are We Are Scientist.

OTOH British Sea Power are, and not surprisingly they are British

First American band I thought of. And I doubt British Sea Power are, either.

With the sunshine power provided by amazing global warming, the summer
of 2006 could be the warmest yet. And with the FIFA World Cup, Bon
Jovi’s Have A Nice Day Stadium Tour and three concerts from British Sea
Power, the worlds of entertainment and sport are also set to turn up the
heat.

Angola, Germany and Paraguay are all confirmed as World Cup
participants, while the Commercial Hospitality Programme will be handled by
iSe-Hospitality of Zug, Switzerland. By the time the Pervert Lion controversy
reaches forth, we predict this four-yearly soccer tourney will be
television news. Lion-like official mascot Goleo VI has been attacked by
German fans group BAFF over his lack of trousers or underwear. Such is
their disquiet that this proactive fan alliance has launched an unofficial
World Cup mascot. The revised lion - Prolleo - will carry beer and wear
trousers. “He’ll mingle with fans in host cities,” says a BAFF
spokesman. “And he’ll have trousers on, unlike the pervert lion.”

Footballing legend also shadows Bon Jovi’s much anticipated stadium
tour. Attentive rock-watchers will recall that, in 2001, Bon Jovi were the
last band ever to play at the old Wembley Stadium. Now, responding to
the gravest forces of historical imperative, on 11 June 2006, Bon Jovi
will be the first band to play the new Wembley Stadium. Do not imagine
that British Sea Power could ignore this exhilarating storm centre where
the realms of music and sport collide. In May, BSP are to play two
shows in Brighton, home of Brighton & Hove Albion, the football team.

By the biennial oscillation (strong since 1997) we're due a pretty average summer this year (however hot it might be), and early signs, let's face it, ain't great. Nearly April and we've still only had one real summer-like day down here.

No, it's not.

True, but by Lo **** Oscillator

La lune est libre,
bien plus libre qu'on ne le croit,
elle fluctue de et l,
les parties qu'on ne voit pas,
c'est pas grave a reviendra

It was just the word oscillation that got me going.


Edit: Damn filter filtering the link, too. Replace the stars with a b, 2 o's and another b

 

[Richard]

A band, then? (I can tell that by the "discography" in the link)

 

[steds]

A song by Stereolab.

Oh.
As some barrister once said: "Objection! Relevance?!"

well i've not seen a cloud for a few days here. In between the rain n snow weve had some decent dry (but cold) periods up here. It's been delightfully crisp of late

 

[Richard]

Wow... things are different in Lancs and Devon.
Wonders will never cease...

Overruled - hearsay and conjecture.

 

[Richard]

Your Honour, I must protest. My client clearly made absolutely no appearence in the said circumstances.

Anyone else getting 'Single Female Lawyer' in their minds right now? No....... Oh...........

 

[Smudge]

Neil Finn & Sir Mix-a-Lot! Talk about running the gamut!

The world of music often tosses up strange bedfellows.

WG and Beatles. Thaere's at least two thirds truth in that.
