On this day

40 years ago on this day, 4 young chaps sat around a kitchen table in Dublin and created one of the greatest Irish success stories, not to mention one of the greatest bands, of all time.

#U240

Are they forming a new supergroup with UB40?

The likes of @Turenne and @glasagusban wouldn’t get Nirvana. You wouldn’t pop caps in assess wirh your jeans hanging off your arse while listening to Nirvana.

Assess what mate? Tax assessment is it?

Would you identify with nirvana mate? Songs about heroin and killing yourself and getting raped up the arse?

Probably the best single night of Olympic athletics of all-time. Michael Johnson cruised to the 400 metres again and Cathy Freeman brought the house down in the women’s equivalent. Haile Gebreselassie pipped Paul Tergat in arguably the greatest distance race of all-time in the 10k.

Something like seven or eight finals on the one night.

25 years ago today - 20 October 1991, Australia beat Ireland 19-18 in the quarter final of the Rugby World Cup.

Ok no quite on this day, but I know I’ll forget it next weekend. But 40 years ago on 26 November 1976, this was released and life was never the same again. It was quite simply the most important moment in rock and roll history. I remember hearing this for the first time and thinking holy fuck.
