Yes, it was once a paper of substance. But then it embraced the very Celtic Tiger towards whom it now affects to be iconoclastic.

They didn't let me finish, bastards, having hidden everything under subscription about three years ago. I had time to steal sheer trifles..

Do you keep a black list ?

Nah, I light candles for them in the Pro-Cathedral. They REALLY hate that.

You must be a regular there during this post-reunion period...

The writer obviously wasn't standing near me.

Probably for the best, he's too full of misdirected misery and suffering.

Yeah, the battery company has the "Still Holds A Charge" award, and I heard The Pogues were inducted into the hall recently. Gold plated 12 volts are in the mail.

So maybe lucky subscribers (Nobby 3! I rely on you first of all) will rummage about that treasury, extract some curios and having blown dust away upload them to this section?..

I'm subscribed to the Hotpress mobile/wap site on o2 i-mode. Unfortunaltely, there is no facility to search the archives and at the moment. Rest assured, when I can, I will. :wink:

And this link doesn't help ? Pity...

This review is pathetic. It is the most badly written piece of supposed music journalism I've seen for a long time, and that's saying something these days. The arrogant little turd does not deserve to have the word 'writer' in his job title. :wink:
