There was a great programme on the other week on bbc4 - synth brittania which interviewd just about all the major synths bands up to and including the pet shop boys. The best quote was from Andy McClusky who said "Suddenly synths were seen as old hat and guitars were back and that gave us Oasis ... the horror" Over simplified and conviently forgetting the Smiths but the "horror" bit really made me laugh
Yes! This wasn't here yesterday! But it should have been! So I've gone back and put Wednesday's date on it anyway. How very Orwellian.
ReplyDeleteyou sneaky blighter.
ReplyDeletei liked them till i saw the terrible dancing about. it was just too awful.
Yes, it is quite wrong for synthy people to dance. They should stand properly po-faced behind their keyboards like Kraftwerk.
