Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Dr Dre is also 60 in Feb. This has made me very happy.

Snoop Dogg and Dre together seems so right, like L&M of TSB.

What happened last night was the 2 hour French closing ceremony over-ran by 25%, and then was utterly upstaged by Tom Cruise, The Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Ms Eilish and Messrs Dogg and Dre.

Not that the French closing ceremony was dreadful, it just dragged terribly in the middle with the rings and the dancers.

I watched it, but feel I may have seen a different programme ;-)

RHCP are quite the faves on the "most overrated band" thread.

I approve of the ‘overrated’ label for RHCP.

One of them appears to be called Fleas. This doesn’t strike me as any sort of a recommendation

In the same “only got one song” box as Morrissey.

Here's a question, inspired by the latest of @MaT.T 's polls.

Did anyone actually *LIKE* Jane's Addiction, or did people just say they did to try and sound cool?

I've just given the poll album another go. It's horrible.

Not sure I have knowingly heard them.

As to “really like” it’s a question of when. See all the Ramones t-shirts being worn by whippersnappers now, as opposed to the five of us who bought the first album when it came out.

Never listened, couldn't name a song. I do know that two of them had a proper fight on stage during their comeback tour last week though 🤷‍♀️
