Madness this evening at Newmarket races.
Any one in the know got any tips (except McDowell naturally )

[StuartL]

Chas "Smash" Smyth from Madness is a Gooner, came out for the encore and I'm pretty sure he uttered " E I E " before they launched into the next song

Going to see Bruce Springsteen on Tuesday. Saw Little Angels on their farewell tour a while back supported by Toseland the band fronted by motorbike racing bloke James Toseland, they were great had a chat with James as well. Tidy bloke didnt realise he was married to Katie Melula. Shes well fit.

Saw Madness at Newmarket on Friday Night. Another great gig, apart from Lee Thommo Thompson's karaoke version of New York, New York. A lot of stuff from the Oui Oui album sounded great live. Baking hot evening, booze-a-plenty, and won a few quid on the racing as well. All round great night out!

Were you wearing a Bergkamp 10 t shirt by any chance ?

Went to a festival the other week in Holland and got the chance to see Portishead.

Excellent 10/10

Brilliant band!

I went to Portishead and saw quite a few bristols!

Worth a watch - Jimmy Page and Baldrick do a (acoustic) guitar duo in the opening act!

Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel

Love this song, and though it worked very well as an intro to Watchmen (great film by the way )

Sorry Mods & Gooners - Off Topic I know, but what with all the transfer madness, I wanted as many people to see this as possible:

Tomorrow, MPs start debating the gagging law. [1] The government wants to rush it through parliament. [2] Our best hope of stopping them is to make sure MPs realise just what a dodgy law they are being asked to vote for. Please can you email your MP now and help build the pressure?

If passed, the gagging law would have a chilling effect on our democracy. From May 2014, draconian new rules would prevent non-politicians from speaking up on the big issues of the day. A huge range of campaign groups and charities – everyone from The Royal British Legion, to Oxfam, to the RSPB - are warning about the threat this poses. [3]

MPs need to know we won't stand for this – so please take a minute to email yours before Tuesday's debate:

It’s telling that so many groups who wouldn't normally agree with each other have united to oppose the gagging law. Groups that speak out in favour of hunting, windfarms, HS2 or building more houses are joining together with groups who say exactly the opposite. [4]

That’s because there’s one thing we should all be able to agree on: in a healthy democracy, everyone should able to express their views. And everyone should be allowed to get organised to highlight what politicians are saying and doing on the issues that matter to them.

Politics is too important to leave to political parties. When we speak up about decisions that affect us and the future of our country, we can often change things for the better. Are politicians really so arrogant as to think the UK would be better off if all these groups were blocked from campaigning?

Let’s come together quickly and tell MPs that this gagging law must not be passed. The first vote is on Tuesday, so please email your MP now:

Just got in from the Brixton Academy after fulfilling an 18 year dream to see Soundgarden live. The last show on their European tour.

They were fucking brilliant. Chris Cornell was on top form and the tunes off Superunknown and Down on the Upside blew me away
