I have some experience with blogspot, but I'm not sure if I can help you in any way, because I'm really not an expert when it comes to this technical stuff... But drop me a message (private message if you're a member or e-mail if you're not... You can find it in my profile I think) and I'll see if I can help you! But don't expect too much - you probably know how to use it much better!

I can't even remember anyone talking about blogspot here, by the way. I might be wrong of course so if I can't help you, I think you should just wait patiently there.

Anyway, message me and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Smile

I used to love Sugar. Copper Blue and Beaster were brilliant albums. File Under Easy Listening was utter wank though and a truly awful front cover. The only one that I can think of which is worse is "Doggystyle" by Snoop Doggy Dogg.

Husker Du were just my entire life when I was 16

and Beaster was just astounding.

I only have "File Under Easy Listening" to them and I didn't like it that much either... So I just decided they're just another average band and never bought anything else... And now you tell me the album is utter wank and the others are much better.
The front cover is bloody awful, you're right about that.

Apparently it was originally going to be called File Under Utter Wank but the acronym wouldn’t have been as good.

Judging Sugar by File Under Easy Listening is like judging Oasis by Standing on the Shoulder of Giants….or Heathen Chemistry…or Be Here How. You really should buy Copper Blue, its brilliant. And you really should sell FUEL or use it as a beer mat or something.

YOU LUCKY ***!

I was an idiot 17 yr old who left it to a mate to sort out the tickets. he promptly got tickets for himself and none for me.

We haven't spoken for 9 years, maybe that's the way he wanted it!!

Hey blogger. I assume you got help from someone else already then?

I have a blog. They can be a pain in the arse if you've nothing to write about......you kinda fell like you should be getting stuff down each day. They are a bit vain really best to use them for opinion pieces unless you think your life is interesting enough for other people to read about...mine isn't, unless you count my days in the jungle with pablo escobar or that time I served as a mercenary in the Congo.

There's something scary and unsettling about diaries who are for all to read, kind of self indulgent, strange, odd. And as Habermas would probably ask himself, is there anything nowadays that is private? The lines aren't just blurred, they've completely disappeared.

I know that was pretentious but it's one of few good ideas he had. L&P

P.S. Tour diaries, studio diaries and things like that are fine I think, what doesn't feel good is someone telling everything about their inner self.
