Newest little project!
Take one old church window with the center busted out, replace with a mirror, add some framing to the back, add lights and voila! Christmas is sorted!

Click for image, because it's too big for some, apparently.

That's one of those things
that's always made me wonder. The Great Wall isn't really all that wide or tall- we have roadways bigger than that. Why do they always say that about the Great Wall when you can't see the NY Thruway?

Apparently it's the dust surrounding it, not the wall itself, that is visible.

Thanks!
I used to have a similar one in my house, but it belonged to someone else who took it with her. Took me most of the day to do, because the idiots at the store cut the mirror wrong, among other mishaps. (I tried cutting an old scrap of mirror myself, but apparently it's bastard stuff to cut. It ended up as scrap.)

Now I just need to decide who to give it to...

Black Market Minerals
is a chain that carries polished stone from around the world made into various things (or as it is), and things like drums and masks and rain sticks that look vaguely African. I go in there for slabs of stone to put into stained glass pieces, and that mask (and a few others) caught my eye. I have a couple on trees outside and a couple hanging in the house, along with my African tribal mask from Kenya and other strange carvings my grandparents brought back in the 1940s.

Oh, and the six foot Masai spear that Grandpa bought in the market over there.

I think it is impossible to be passionate about the Smiths.
Even though, they should be right up your street you misery.

Okay. Question. Create two bands, one living, one dead out of any people who are, err, either living or dead.

Obviously, it would be useful if I knew who your band members were, but rather than me ask you to create a band of people I'd know, if you can post a YouTube link to their finest work as individuals, that'll be great.

One singer.
One bassist
2 guitarists (one one if that is easier)
Drummer.

Dead band:
vocals: Steve Marriott
bass: John Entwistle
lead guitar: Hendrix
rhythm: Fred 'Sonic' Smith
drums: Clyde Stubblefield

Living band:
vocals: Jim Jones
bass: Lemmy
lead: Angus Young
drums: fuck knows

These are not necessarily my all time favourites but the combination of the musicians might be good.

You should be able to find a drummer for the living band.

Well, a living band that consisted of
Manuel Göttsching and Oren Ambarchi on guitars, Chris Squire on bass and Charles Hayward on drums would certainly be interesting.

Think I missed the point of the original question due to being ratted
Dead band - Vocalist Janis Joplin, drummer Jon Bonham, with Monty on the others.

Live band - Ooh - I think Imelda Mae vocals, Chuck Prophet lead, JJB bass (although he'd sulk) and the geezer who is currently playing with Focus on percussion.

And Oi Vavoy as a backing band.

Such a short series though. Can't believe it finished on that note
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Fri 19 Nov 2010, 0:01, Reply)
It hasn't (apparently)
It'll be back in the new-year, the series is 20-odd episodes long, but they've broken up transmission or something.

It'll be back on in the New Year.

Did you watch Hotel Babylon as well?
