well, a 1474 megapixel sensor doesnt exist at the the moment, and doubt if it ever will.

remember kids, the megapixel number is no guarantee of quality. The rest of the optics contribute just as much. Often the really high mp numbers can introduce a lot of noise into the picture, especially on the very small sensors on point and shoot cameras.

Not too sure about this. Give it 5 years and there'll be one somewhere.


Evil gets it right.

That was an interesting read. Nice mix of romanticism and realism, too.

As a lifelong Yid (won't catch any of us switching from Brentford), thought I would cheer you lot up before the North v South London Derby.

I was 1 of many who expected Frank to do well. Then I watched the Summer transfer window. We signed an entertaining show pony (Kudus) and 2 men with zero experience of the Prem (Kolo Muani and Simons). Good players, both, but the former will never be suited to English football, while the latter is trying ever so hard, while hoping next Summer to either play elsewhere or put on the 20 pounds of muscle needed. Presuming he doesn't want to be remembered as the new Bryan Gil

So. Do Spurs learn their lesson? No. We sign an Interim Manager (Tudor) with precisely zero experience of playing in or managing in England. He looks like a decent Manager. But what a time and way to appoint him. Can't sign anyone, no local knowledge, and told he's off in 4 months time. Meanwhile our last Assistant Manager (Heitinga) who had local knowledge from Spurs and Liverpool, as well as Managing Ajax, is shown the door.

The first goal at the Weekend is going to be important...

Damon Albarn is 57 (FIFTY SEVEN).

WTF?

Gotta be the coolest 57 year old on the planet. Even Thewy (similar age) is not that cool.


Noel & Liam have entered the chat!

Back to the 90s, just like that Cheesy


The difference is Damon has talent, so GTFO outa here with your Oasis bilge.

Jarvis has to be in the conversation though

That's spooky, Jarvis/Pulp are another, along with Damon/Gorillaz, I have happily rediscovered of late. It's light stuff but has aged well, & Jarvis always puts on a proper performance, with all the hand actions & strange oohs & ahhs. They've been around (on & off) over 40 years, & I think Candida has been there the whole time. She's so crippled with arthritis in her hands she can only play very basic note sequences, but it all works nicely & it's good that they've stuck with her, & unusual to see a lady in her 60's in a pop band. Hard to pick my favourite Pulp work but "Something Changed" is in the mix, & there's scores of versions of it on YT.

For any Pulp fans here, there's a thing on You Tube called "Tiny Desk Concerts" a sort of modern version of MTV Unplugged, The Pulp edition is excellent, with Jarvis at his theatrical best, Candida doing her repetitive note stuff, Webber hilariously cocking up a guitar riff, & Banks (drummer) using his chair as a drum. Well worth a watch, it's in my daily music mix.


Here you go...





I think Banks is playing a Cajon - a Peruvian percussion instrument.

#Invalid YouTube Link#

Even after 20yrs I still can’t post a YT link

As an aside, he could have used a Dube.

Heard you played the APAT at DTD the other week. I bust fairly early on day 1 and after a quick scan around a full casino, I couldn't see or hear you so decided to get on my merry way. Hope you faired better than I did.

Have a look at Common People from their Glastonbury set last year.
With an accompanying fly past by the Red Arrows.

I’ve ‘done’ Glastonbury a few times and the last two years mystery sets have provided outstanding memories. The secret is rarely kept secure but the reveal is still a shiver moment.


Yes, very good.

Jarvis always gives a full-on "show", full of effort, & it's never really changed since Day 1, but he always gives a performance. Think he'd make a great actor. Amazing how a few big hits can sustain a band for a lifetime, although most bands are not around long enough to cash in. He's in pretty good nick for a man of 62/63.

And he always does that thing where he intros all the band members, with Candida getting the loudest cheer every time. She was in her backless dress & her hair up, pretty brave for a mid-sixties girl.

Maybe I'm easily pleased, but bravo Pulp.

Here's that Glasto '26 rendition of Common People.

ooh, MANTIS is online.

His retort to Cos's comments a page or so back will be something to behold, trust me, assuming he sees it.

Anthony Kendall.

Pretends he hates a ruckus on here.

Absolutely loved it.

What a stirrer.

One more - a lovely sort of al fresco version of Melancholy Hill by Damon. Tell me he's not super cool.
