2003 is not a time I'd like to return to, thank you very much.
1997, now that'd be a different story.

britpop and drink resulted in me giving up on music between 1994 and 1999.... so for me, 1997 was a terrible year for music...

I was speaking more from a personal point of view, but I did see Pavement thrice in 1997. And that Fannies gig in the Olympia was good. Mogwai in Whelans(?).
That's a good point about no Witnness/Picnic etc though.

*sigh* - this whole mucking about with digging up old posts has really gotta stop! Not the first time it's happened either. It's ok to dig up the odd old post if you have something to add, but excavating a load of old threads really breaks the flow of things.

Blur released a super album in 1997. Also, Dutch Gold began really making it's presence felt that year, a sterling debut.

The finger must point squarely at Joe "Chairman Mao" Dolan who is rewriting the past. Like the Japenese and their refusal in their school history texts to acknowledge the atrocities of their past.

In 2006, joedolan launched the Cultural Revolution, which is viewed by his opponents (including both Western analysts and many Chinese people who were the "new irish" youth at the time) as a strike back at his rivals by mobilizing the youth of the country in support of his thought and purging the moderate leadership.
Extreme disorder followed but gradually under the leadership of protein biscuit moderate forces regained influence. |

...yeah, but it's the crazy ressurrection of long-dead threads that prompted this one, more dead stuff comming startlingly back to life than a George A. Romero movie...
aaaanyway, nothing to see here, move along, no need to alarm the publc with tales of zombie threads.. |
