poptimistsJaysis I'm ruined.
The pop quiz was somewhat of a triumph - £330 in the kitty for charity, pretty good result, bigger things expected of the auction on Friday tho. Nobody got the Bradford fire question; nobody got Chernenko; I think one team got Chumbawamba; nobody got I'd Rather Jack; almost nobody got ABBA; EVERYBODY got Busted, hurrah.
Does anyone want more bits and pieces questions?
Here is a question that's been floating around my brain a bit: is pop music a good medium for self-expression? When I think of records which have some kind of confessional or soul-baring component to them I tend to be thinking of records I think are a BIG BAG OF SH1TE. "Self-expression" isn't exactly the right words here, maybe with conversation I can work towards a better way of phrasing this...

Date: 2005-10-06 11:20 am (UTC)It's one of the big things I just don't GET about the way some people enjoy music - something like John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band just seems so awful to me because it really REQUIRES you to take some kind of interest in JL's inner life, it feels boring and intrusive somehow.
