Iā€™ve often threatened to listen to more of these guys but i never really got around to it. Any album you could recommend?

Iā€™d say I listened to ā€˜Rulers, ruling all thingsā€™ about 15 times yesterday, Farmer. Love that song, album is a bit patchy though.

I just have Chronicles albums myself. Bayou Country and Green River would probably be their best studio albums. They are awesome though. Everyone should listen to them.

Great song. The album definately isnā€™t as good as Van Occupanther but it seems to get better every time I listen to it.

Anybody going to Cork to see them?

I really like Courage I must say. Itā€™s not as good as Van Occupanther but it is still a very good effort. I would actually say Small Mountain is my favourite on it - like SS with Rulers, I listen to it about 5 times a day.

Van Occupanther tailed off a bit towards the end for me.

Not even Midlake would make me go to Cork Fran.

:rolleyes:

Have you ever even been?

A comment against Cork, anywhere within the forum and you can be sure Kev will sniff it out.

It was only in jest. I have been to Cork a good few times and couldnā€™t say anything against it really. In my previous job, one of the soundest clients we had was from Cork. Spot on bloke.

I was more curious really, seeing as youā€™d been spotted in LImerick recently.

It has already been determined that yer man was too small to have been me.
