Amazon, The Misfits...oh alright, nothing really.

by mattk @ Monday, Sep. 08, 2008 – 17:38:04

I don't know if any of you good people use amazon.co.uk for anything, but if you do you might like to have a look at my profile and maybe read some of my reviews (if you're really really bored):

Yes, it's Monday night again and I'm sat at Reception. Right now I'm typing this twaddle. In a few moments I'll be playing Boxhead once again (I'm getting really good at it), and will hopefully continue to listen to The Misfits on my Ipod. If you've never heard The Misfits, may I heartily recommend one of the greatest punk bands of all time, and humbly suggest you start with "Misfits Collection 1" if you're thinking of giving them a try. Any other Misfits fans out there??

      I've heard that one of the recent albums was really good, I think it might have been Heathen...?

I like your writing style on Amazon.

And I have used it recently to purchase some books and hopefully Amazon is good. Especially as the books are new too

  Thank you!
  
  I tend to use Amazon to read the reviews and decide whether or not I really want the item in question, then go and buy it somewhere cheaper!! (play.com, dvd.co.uk)

surely all Bowie is essential?!
- - mattk
  - Monday, Sep. 08, 2008 @ 17:56:41
  I wish that were true...you've clearly not heard any of his, er, shall we say non-essential albums! To mention a few:
  
  Tonight
  Never Let Me Down
  Tin Machine (his midlife crisis band)

Ai yi yi, Tin Machine. I feel tired and sad at just the mention of their name, The Misfits are great. Shame about Glen Danzig being such a prize wally though.

  He's a strange chap isn't he. The kind of bloke that anger management courses were invented for.

read some of your reviews... what do you think of Series 3 Boosh?
Have you read my review of Victorian Pornography?
- - mattk
  - Tuesday, Sep. 09, 2008 @ 11:21:23
  I liked the 3rd Boosh, although it wasn't as good as either of the other two series. I still like the first series the best I think, although there are some good episodes in the 2nd and 3rd as well.
  
  I haven't read your review...is Victorian Pornography the actual title?

    it's the latest entry on my blog sorry, not on Amazon. Shamelessly promoting myself I'm afraid... but then again isn't that what you're doing?
    
    Thought the last Boosh was slightely irritating. WHoever I watched it with, without saying a word there'd be a slightely uncomfortable feeling after so many of the jokes. Self-awareness killed it I think, they started to make too many of the same jokes and pandering to the electro-shoredich crowd. THe secret to British Sitcoms is to never go more than 2 series it seems, except for Fools and Horses, but that met a sticky end eventually too...

      I can't watch Only Fools And Horses any more, it makes my toes curl up in embarassment.
