I bet you won't be complaining so much come December when Thurston appears! This is a prediction, by the way, not a fact. But it seems obvious that the Thurs will appear on some TV programme when he's touring in Europe, and there's not really an credible UK alternative to Jools-Woolsy, is there?

funny thing is, i don't dislike jools as a character person.

Good shout, that popular SY rennaissance might well be on the way.

Looks like Battles are on next week. That's something at least.

oh yes. tonto im sure.... jools will be scrathing his chin ferociously im sure!

I dont get Battles at all. Maybe seeing them on the show next week ill have an epiphany. Shit, the show might do what its supposed to again.

trust me ikara.... they are good. damn good. even better live.

Ive had false dawns before; people telling me Modest Mouse were any good springs to mind. But who knows eh.

I saw Kaki King for the first time on fridays show, and she blew me away. What a brilliant guitar player.
Any fans?
