That's better. Feeling more like myself now HAHA!!

Goodnight Robert mate :-)

Cheers Darren, Night night ALL :-)

OK back :-)

Am I the only one sitting in silence??

I like a GOOD cover (who doesn't), but I would say it's a mistake to try and break with one without a good solid portfolio of well written original material waiting in the wings, else you'll likely end up a one trick pony. If you do opt for a cover, it MUST bring something new to the party and I don't mean a reggae version of "Smoke on the Water" LOL

Night night ALL :-)

Thanks again Baron, great show. Enlightenment can be a slow process, but I've done my bit LOL ;-)

Thanks Baron, in case you didn't notice I quite enjoyed that LOL

Need to be seen live to appreciate their brilliance Ange :-)

Stoner Kebab Waking with the sound of coming troubles I couldn’t say what happened yesterday No matter how I tried to say “I’m sorry” I didn’t know I never had to fail What’s the matter? She’s a drama In the end they say that true love finds you But all I know is you’re screaming in my mind How completely wrong we ran our feelings? Now Japanese No Limits makes me sick And if you’re still my loved one I won’t be afraid to burn Find me an easy way to the sun But if you’re really gone now I won’t be afraid to die Find me an easy way to get out (Sterbus 2018) Sterbus (Rome, Italy) are: Emanuel Sterbini – Vocals and Anything with strings or keys Dominique D’Avanzo – Vocals, Clarinet, Flute Bob Leith – Drums, Vocals … et al (See bandcamp) Bio (from their bandcamp page) Sterbus are from Rome, but their true musical spirit wanders much further afield – from the joyful power-pop of The New Pornogrophers to the rainy Portland of Elliot Smith and most recently all the South of England’s ground-soild Cardiacs, XTC and King Crimson.

Heart Machine Listen to the heart of the factory pumping Liquefied waste of production In a scrap yard of bones made of concrete On the chimney top stands the last welder of languid futility Watching a torpid marsupial quagmire Ramshackle jackhammers thumping along To the rhythm of the assembly line Listen to the heart of the factory pumping Captain Ahab is back for the nightshift Waiting down by the docks for a shipment That may never arrive Kiss the cobalt, smell the limestone and carbon monoxide Now he is singing a song, it is: "Glory, glory, Hallelujah! I'm so proud to be guarding this heart machine, it is Perfect!" Like Phoebus on the crescent, dancing in a blizzard on the moon Flags are hoisted, sailors are closing the breach of the shell Ring the bell! I'm piercing the eye of the moon From the roof I can see perfectly clear, travelling suits of silver, mechanical telescopes, crowded barracks and scaffolds of gold I'm piercing the eye of the moon Snowflakes, stars and orbits, mushroom umbrellas and clouds The mourning cloak of the belching smoke is fluttering over a house like a ghost Through foundries and wobbling grass, rusty arbors and broken glass (Major Parkinson 2014) Major Parkinson (Bergen, Norway) are: Jon Ivar Kollbotn – Vocals Øystein Bech-Eriksen – Guitar Lars Christian Bjørknes – Keyboards Eivind Gammersvik – Bass Sondre Veland – Drums Sondre Skollevoll – Guitar, Backing Vocals Claudia Cox – Violin, etc. Bio (from their bandcamp page) Somewhere in between pop and psychosis, somber poetry and dark rock, there is Major Parkinson. A fearless and distinctly different band, with fresh, unconventional approach to the art of writing music.
