Arrgghhh Nnnnoooooo!! Queen and Paul Rodgers are touring this year and 2 concerts in Ireland have been announced! Unfortunately I won’t be here! I’ll be in Chicago!
Here’s the full list of concerts but they’re probably all sold out – the UK concerts sold out within hours of being announced.
I must read that Uncut interview with them soon. I haven’t a clue who Paul Rodgers is!

Jem & They – ding ding ding ding ding
Gah! That ding-ding song is on the radio again! I had to turn down the volume earlier as it was giving me headaches listening to it! Others like it and the singer is talented, but lose the bloody dings please!
Fred – new album on Feb 25th!
Yay! Fred are going to release their second album on February 25th! Release of the album is accompanied by a release tour. They’re playing in Cork on the 26th, but I won’t be in town that night. They are playing in Clon at the end of March so who’s up for a trip down the country? 🙂
Fat Dutch Man – Funny guy dancing
Here’s a video of a fat Dutch man – dancing and singing along to “Ozone’s Dragostea Din Tei”.
It’s a wonder what some people get up to. *shudder*
(Thanks Martin for the link!)
Edit (2016-12-07): added a Youtube version since the link above is now broken. Thanks Reddit. Apparently today is the twelfth anniversary of the video which is actually called Numa Numa.
Tonight thank God it's them instead of you!
After all the hype over Bono or Justin singing the famous line, I just heard the new Band Aid song on the radio and am not impressed. It’ll probably grow on me but I still prefer the original! Here’s the original lineup and lyrics for those interested.
Go buy it anyway, it’s for a good cause!
Ramones tribute night, Cyprus Avenue on Sunday
Damn, this could be a great gig! A trbute to the Ramones performed by Fred, The Shades, Stan, Sylvia Saint and lots more!
€10 in and all proceeds will go to cancer research!
Apple to iPod owners: slaps all around!
On a lighter note, Apple is threatening it’s iPod owning users over a bit of software that lets you download your music off your iPod. They really didn’t have a choice, it was the big bad music corporations guiding their hand! Still, I love the simple work-around 🙂
the stypod on Queen – Dancer
I’m a huge Queen fan, one look at my CD collection and that’ll become clear. Unfortunately, there are two of their albums I really don’t like. Those are “Hot Space” and “Jazz”. They sound very 80’s-ish, and not in a good way. I think they haven’t dated very well.
Anyhow, the stypod has a feature on Dancer, one of the songs from Hot Space. Besides “Under Pressure” it probably is one of the stronger musical pieces on the album.
/me goes back to Queen at the Beeb.. ah yes!
stypod – top 10
The Stypod will have “The Top 10 Number Ten Singles Of The Past Ten Years” next week but here’s 3 top 10 singles that came out just a bit too early to include! Couple of good tracks!
