Yeah! Let's hug them trees.....

Allright, let's keep it on personal taste to avoid putting the Metal on the Club

Ah, well. If tree-hugging means kinda hippy-like I'm a major disappointment, though. I sure like to hug trees, anytime, because I prefer them by all means to my fellow human beings.

I'm more of the opinion that the whole lot of those, like 90% or so, should be sacrificed in a big straw Wickerman to Crom Cruagh, to make the trees grow, the flowers bloom, the animals multiply and the fish spawn.

I'm on the wrong planet! Take me away from here!

Has anyone else noticed that this topic has gained more attention than most queries about catfish get doesn't that seem strange? or have we all lost intrest?

I noticed that and promped me to check out what the excitement is all about. Probibally because fish are not very good listeners I guess. However I think ill refrain from posting my musical taste on here because im afraid of SG_Eurystomus and Misty I prefer my alcohol in the bars (or pubs for some of you?) personally I like my music but never could get use to the scream into ears to hold on a conversation thing.

I blame Mand for all this excitement, and the daftest thread there's been for many a moon.
It should be known that wherever you are on Earth, there is only really one true 'Midlands' and it's that place where they talk funny and think Slade were actually serious musicians. Fulla country!

I'm awfully sorry fatcat for making you afraid to post your musical tastes, I really won't insult them. If you look back you will notice I only started getting protective after my favourite type of music was insulted. I'm actually very open-minded to different types of music, its just that I've done my part of listening to music that consists of loud screaming and my brain can't take it anymore. But anything that's not shouting, that's fine.

Respect to your musical tastes coelacanth (?), but who on earth is Nick Cave? And what is the Madchester sound? (Just out of interest, its not because I'm going to scorn the type of music?)

Yup. Just goes to show. I think it's becuase this topic doesn't really have a logical end point. Bet if I go and post a "Hey, what's the best type of beer in the world" topic then that will compete with this one for dubious use of bandwidth.

Misty,

Madchester is the Happy Mondays, Charlatans, Stone Roses etc early 1990s sound born of Manchester and a night club called the Hacienda. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Late 80's if I'm being pedantic. What came after was the diluted version that ultimately resulted in the caricature that is Oasis. None of the members of that group keep Catfish, as far as I'm aware. Unsurprisingly. No taste, talent or imagination. I imagine they keep Red Parrot Cichlids and try to pass them off as Discus.

And Nick Cave is someone who has around on the fringes of the music industry for the past 25 years, and is widely regarded to be the best songwriter to have emerged during that time. His music is very humorous and dark. Catfish like dark places. They also like to live in caves, which is his surname. Hence this is not irrelevant.

Does being a daft clubber from Scotland count??

Listening to the best of cafe del mar right now(but it really not the same as being there ).
