Who sez hit parade these days?

PJ don't make videos, well they've made 3 but only the first one, Jeremy, was shown on MTV.

They made one for Do The Evolution...

The video for Oceans is more like an early home movie, showing them surfing and stuff.

Single video theory is sessions for the Yield album.

As for that old dude Neil Young http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvfnO7hphMI
PJ finished the Leeds gig with KORITFW.
In 1996 they made an album together, it's not bad...

I'm interpeting for Ed. He's a 'pop picker'

Right so he likes Brittany and Christina more than proper music?

They were ace at Reading... I wasn't expecting much of them, I've hardly listened to them since 10, just thought they'd become a bit of a joke since. Pleasantly surprised

Reading Odd One Out round: Daphne and Celeste, My Chemical Romance, Good Charlotte, 50 Cent.



(answer: They've all been bottled into tiny pieces at Reading, but big tough 50 Cent was the only one to run away.)

Aah, I saw them for the first and only time them on Jules Holland's show a few monts back - absolutely f***ing brilliant!

Apart from Muse, who were obvious champions, I thought Hundred Reasons were fantastic... They've more or less perfected their festival set now I reckon. Lots of other good stuff, though TBH I thought this was one of the weakest bills for a while. Still had a great time.

Like I've said they don't put much stock in the MTV generation style music career.
If you haven't heard much since 10 then you're about 7 (studio) albums behind. There are about 72 live albums, they even encouraged fans to bootleg the live shows.. Best summed up as the band that plays every gig like it might be their last
