And yet I still had no idea what your new 'Pulling an H. Singh' banner meant. Today, in the shower, I started singing the Furnaces--"I was listening to classic VH..." and got it, of course. What's weird is that I wasn't listening to the actual song and heard the line--I had already memorized the lyric, i just hadn't put it together yet...Good times, good times. Matthew,

"<i>Almost anything new, or in fact "indie" will get no recognition. Only recognised bands and classics (Smiths/Joy Division/Velvet Underground/Datsuns/Strokes etc) get any sort of response.</i>" That's the Madrid so-called indie scene!

Hopefully I don't seem like an indie snob, I'll just say that all the indie nights here are very "nme approved" and that if you try to get anything else played, you will fail. It's limited.

Seeing a dancefloor clear when Stereo comes on is just plain upsetting. And that's if you can get it played! I think here, there's a sort of indie trend at the moment, and they just haven't heard of a lot of the other stuff. Mainly here - and this is me being terribly general - it's a lot of scarf wearers who will go wild for the Thrills, combine that with the most undaring djs (the same songs every week, they will never play anything they don't know the reaction to). An example being me asking for the yyy's to be played when they first came out, and being told to ask for something "more mainstream". Of course now it is a staple. So what we get is any popular current guitar band, mixed with oasis and other safe bets. It's more Dandy Warhols and Offspring indie, y'know? Oh, it’s totally not that at all.

Mainly here - and this is me being terribly general - it’s a lot of scarf wearers who will go wild for the Thrills, combine that with the most undaring djs (the same songs every week, they will never play anything they don’t know the reaction to).

An example being me asking for the yyy’s to be played when they first came out, and being told to ask for something “more mainstream”. Of course now it is a staple.

So what we get is any popular current guitar band, mixed with oasis and other safe bets. It’s more Dandy Warhols and Offspring indie, y’know?

I think here, there's a sort of indie trend at the moment, and they just haven't heard of a lot of the other stuff.

An example being me asking for the yyy's to be played when they first came out, and being told to ask for something "more mainstream". Of course now it is a staple. So what we get is any popular current guitar band, mixed with oasis and other safe bets. It's more Dandy Warhols and Offspring indie, y'know? Oh, it’s totally not that at all.
