Foive? I am just listening to Brian Matthews on Radio 2 and the "I'll give it foive" girl, Janice Nicholls, has just been on.

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

Really? Have the TV on, so it's purely coincidental.

Just seen, she has her own website.

Welcome to the website of Janice Nicholls the "thank your lucky stars " tv girl and her husband brian meacham ex gulliver

Making the most of your fifteen minutes of fame didn't start with The Only Way is Essex.

'Fraid i'd already donned my little apron and was tending goats in the Alps when that started - don't know what I was missing!:rolleyes:

One thing though at least we didn't all walk round with our pants hanging off.:D

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

You're right.

Forget teds, mods, punks, goths, new romantics.

The youth of today are just as inventive.

Not wearing a belt, and showing the world your knicker covered ass, is so imaginative.

Yes, the moon can effect people in different ways.

Especially seeing a new, or full moon.

First I expect sarcasm from you! :dummy2:

I saw Prodigy on TV recently, a gig from 2010 and they were playing basically same thing as they did 20 years ago - thing is the audience were this generation - by that I mean teenagers early 20's! Point being that they havn't aged. Compare that to someone like Status Quo - 20 years on the audience had aged - but not with the Prodigy!:mosher::mosher::mosher:

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

I would have thought Status Quo to be a fair comparison.
However, last year I had the pleasure of seeing Roger Waters (ex Moody Bass Player of Pink Floyd) perform The Wall.
There was a very good mix of ages, from those who bought DSOM when it first came out, through those of us in middle age to young teenagers.
And he still fills stadiums the world over, in fact he is still touring, the tour has lasted almost 2 years, this guy is 69 and still going strong.

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

Just proved my point.

There hasn't been anything radically different since 1987.

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

Quite obviously the same type of people are now watching Prodigy as they did 20 years ago, Um yesterdays numpties are today's parents;)

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

It's not that it's that fact the kids today are still listening to what was supposedly "in "20 years ago and that was Rave music. It hasn't moved on!

True yer still here.:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38:

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

It seems to have affected you in a bad way - looney! Addled your reason!

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

You know Jay, I could not agree more.
Pop music has never gone away, there are more people listening to it every day.
The Beatles are selling albums every day, they last recorded together in 1970.
On the other side of the coin, punk music has all but gone from everyday life.

Re: Punk heralded the death of pop
 

Phew thank god for that, just wish Rotton Johnnie wouldn't keep popping up on our TV screens and reminding us of it:rolleyes:
