The Killers just became my new favourite band.

In the absence of real bands, I'll take a Johnny Come Lately Brit band any day.

Cerr

Eh they're American. I think they're from Las Vegas. The lead singer is a Mormon.

They do have a few good songs.

Josquius

You've just heard the early stuff? Or you like the new stuff?

Hey, I am no expert on accents.

I bought 4 albums in one go.

The 2006 one is best.

Yep.
Some of their early songs were pretty good (though they have since been overplayed to hell; every club, every night....). I don't much rate their more recent work though, too...stadium rock. Of the bad kind.

I expect a gay tirade from Marti soon.

That only lasted oh, so long.

Now I am back on Leonard Cohen.

You all know I am old, and had BAC 0.06 from 2002 to 2005.

BAC?

Blue Angina Cult?

I assume he means Blood Alcohol Content, but I don't understand why 0.06; that's basically the level you get after taking cough medicine, or maybe one drink; not enough to impair his musical tastes from 2002 to 2005.  Now 0.30 or something, that would be hot.

Nah - 0.06 is probably around 3 drinks for most people (more on a heavier person).  It's also enough to get a 24 hour suspension if caught driving. :nerd:

Still not enough to impair his ability to learn new music.
