Re: Radio this morning.....

Post by becchio bear »

IF I put the radio on I listen to Smooth radio. In the car I just have cds on. I'm beginning to think I have an obsession problem as I have just realised that since purchasing the Arctic Monkeys album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino that is the only cd I have listened to... I bought it on release date in May :oops: :bear:
I'm going back to 505, I saw them at Sheffield and they were amazing.

I've been like that with the Ray Davies 'Americana' CD played it constantly for weeks, I've had to take it out of the car so I can listen to other albums when I'm driving :)

I intend to listen to the latest Arctic's album this week sometime

Smooth is similar to Magic Soul radio which is also excellent

Only caught the tail-end of popmaster yesterday, got the three in ten very easily

Name three Kenny Rogers hits :)

Today I only mustered 18 in the first round however did much better in the 2nd round with a score of 30, the bonus questions fell into my lap being '60's pop groups' :-D

Missed out on the three in ten....Darts

Only got 'It's Raining', kicking myself as I failed to remember 'Daddy Cool' though I couldn't have named three of their songs

Saw them live once, one of the best gigs ever, the atmosphere was superb, and I only went because someone couldn't make it and i had their ticket, last minute thing.

Tough questions on Popmaster this morning

Scored :

21 in the first round
24 in the second round

Both contestants scored 15 so it went to a tie-break

I got all the tie-break answers

Missed out on the 3 in 10 though

Name three Verve hits in ten seconds.....I'm sure a few on here would have got three or more. I could only come up with two....

You have a really good knowledge Faaip considering you don't enjoy so much music.

You must retain much of your knowledge in that brain of yours whereas my memory is sadly lacking somewhat.

I should have got the Snap & Redneck answers :oops:
