Another glorious day in the salt mines, comrades!

The sun shines bright on the magnificent saltmines of the motherland this morning.... I'm typing up letters and eating toast. How's everyone?

I'm working from home today as we haven't paid the rent on the office yet again!
Unfortunately that doesn't mean I can sit on B3ta all day as I still have stuff to do. Including booking some EuroStar tickets for later this week.

I'm quite happy today. The sun is shining, I walked just over five miles in the sun yesterday and got a tan, watched the rugby, drank beer and ate sausages.
Good times.

Along the lines of "...The Best Road Trip CD In The World! EVER! Volume Five..."?
I dunno if that makes it better than the first one, or not.
Hmmm...

Don't try to justify it, it just makes you look weak.
Anyhoo I have a Paul Anka CD! I bought it because I like it.

I hate the use of genres but can anybody recommend bands that might be described as funk punk, funkcore or funk metal. Adequate seven and rage against the machine (especially renegades) is the sort of stuff I've listened to that seems to fall in those genres and I'd like to listen to more of that kind of thing.
:edit: I was just surprised it didn't get mentioned. Normally people scoff at me owning it. Temporary insanity was the reason I bought the CD but I enjoy it now anyway. It's on my mp3 player at the moment actually.

They're hard to describe.

Listen to Rancid they always cheer me up! Also Sublime are slighlty less shouty. In fact everyone go and listen to sublime right now

Never listened to Sublime though. I need to find the CDs I've lost. Had some Rancid, Greenday, AC/DC and more that's now missing =[

A while back, randomly supporting Hoobastank. Also Reel Big Fish were there. Go listen to them as well
( , Mon 16 Mar 2009, 14:37, Reply)

They're bloody amazing, but I'd class them as gypsy punk (if forced to abridge my description of their genre to two words), there's not a great deal of funk in there...
( , Mon 16 Mar 2009, 14:37, Reply)

Cooool!
Also, Reel Big Fish are awesome fun.

311, King Prawn and the adequate seven albums I don't yet have will keep me going for now.

Didn't really like that much of the 'third wave' stuff.
Gogol Bordello are one of the best live bands I've ever seen!

Remind me quite a bit of Young Gods, who are damn good. Especially "Young Gods Play Kurt Weill".

Classically-influenced pop/rock band. There's just something about their sound that makes me dance in my chair.

Hopefully not while driving though. Based on Clenders' response we might die.

If you embark on a six hour drive, Kaol might have been able to write half a text before you arrive.
