i can do mano chao, laibach, plastic bertrand, jacques brel, erm..

dammit, ca plane pour moi was my centrepiece!


hence the very careful use of the phrase french language in my posts.

Well, I'm tempted to include a mini-Taffy session with the Super Furries and Goldie Looking Chains.

GLC would be ace

Half Man Half Machine or Your Mothers Got a Penis

funnily enough i've been considering an all french set, kicking off with 'le responsable'. i have a great version of 'treason' by teardrop explodes in french that i've been aching to play as well.

I've heard that version and it's F.A.B.!!
gwaaaan do it - douze point for the all-French set

 

[Choc]

yay, i'm looking forward already


btw "all women dj's" sounds like i would be getting a nice little slot myself soon isn't it.. ? promise i won't play any michael jackson either

 

[eme]

talking of which, can anyone point me in the direction of some french language covers of motown/sixties soul classics? do such things existe?

When we were in Belgium they played a french version of Nancy's 'Boots' - it sucked....

However Laisse tomber les filles by France Gall is fab...

I'm thinking of doing a down-under session ranging from Bic Runga to Split Enz.

For the sake of all that's good and right and honest in music..nooooooo!

How could you inflict this on anyone?

Juggler look-a-likees! Argh!

Won't someone please think of the children?!!!

 

[Choc]

hair split ends are just enough to deal with already

no clowns needed for further stress inflictation!

 

[miss minnie]

Juggler look-a-likees! Argh!

but.... you've got to remember that in the antipodean mid 70's, rock'n'roll bands looked like this, so split enz were pretty out there at the time, even if they do resemble bad circus performers now. hey, ldr, how about some skyhooks?

Should be interesting.

Good luck to whoever’s on next, I hear LD Rudeboy’s a hard act to follow…

LDR, I am truly worried as to what actually might be the worst record in your collection

 

[Dubversion]

[Dubversion]

in't there a catatonia song about that?

there might well be, but the odds of it getting within 10 yards of the decks when i'm on them is pretty fucking slim.

caterwauling old alkie

does that mean i get dutronc and bertrand then? can you bring my stupids album too?

looking forward to this. i've only met a handful of folk from the boards and i'm still not entirely sure which name goes with which face. please introduce me to lots of people/come and say hello. and if you happen to be orang utan, feel free to come up to me and say "you were pissed last time we met and you've forgotten what i look like, haven't you?"

allez!

If you want to cheat slightly you could check out the 'ugly mug' photos thread: http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=64594 although I am still too shy (read: lazy) to have my photo there

 

[the B]

I've not been introduced to you ianw, will make sure I do tomorrow.

As for squirmy, be interesting to meet you, I've heard only good things

Don't suppose you fancy a game of chess/table football?

how about a compromise - you get to keep Plastic Bertrand and i get the dutronc?

 

[clandestino]

No, it's cool - you have them both. My only thing is that most of my set is female vocal led and I was tryng to slot in some male vocal as well. As long as you don't mind me going for Et Moi Et Moi Et Moi or Les Cactus at some point.

cheers the b, see you later on!

 

[holteman]
