Mystery C#nt

feeds@yuku.com (AL FIENDISH) — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:49:20 GMT

Someone twittered this to Captain asking if he was involved. Warning: Definately contains sweary words, lots of them.

Was it you that twittered it? Anyone any ideas? I think I spotted Wobble in there too...

Whatever it is, it's absolutely hilarious and my new favourite song, cheers!!!

Working abroad? (In UK)

feeds@yuku.com (lemonslimes) — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 01:09:56 GMT

Good evening (or morning or afternoon)

Short story: I'm *possibly* looking into studying abroad in England this summer. Seems like the most popular type of temporary work is au pairing (babysitter/nanny) or pub work. Have any tips for doing so? Great read on…

Long story: I'm only 18. Well 17, but will be 18 this spring. I have an EU passport thanks to dual citizenship, so getting a work permit is not a problem. I'm a female and will most likely...

Original Hawkwind - Motorhead and Valium Ten.

From around 1974/75 with the great Dave Brock on vocal and guitar and Lemmy bass.

It was re-released as a double A side in 1978.

Bring back Jah Sausage

Hearing him mentioned in the ooga-booga thread made me recall him with fondness.
He used to cheer me up.

Jah is the Ruler...

Come back to us!!!

Damned Fridge Magnets

feeds@yuku.com (That Nasty Mr Hodges) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 11:50:01 GMT

Just spotted a couple of Damned fridge magnets on eBay (Neat Neat Neat and Friday 13th EP), both only 1.5 inches in diameter.

A bit rubbish, I'd say, but then again I've never quite seen what fridge magnets are all about.

That said, if there were a decent-quality Damned fridge magnet the size of a wall-tile, I might begin to see the sense in such a thing.

But do such things exist? Have they ever existed? Has the world of punk ever really woken up to the...

The Young Ones - fave bits!

feeds@yuku.com (janie) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 01:14:47 GMT

Its probably been done but it IS brilliant so what the hell!

My fave YO quote has gotta be ' I'm not a vampire, I'm a driving instructor! From Johannesberg!' in the Nasty episode.

Whats yours?

computer experts, I have a question....

feeds@yuku.com (anavidfan) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:33:53 GMT

Someone I work with is a mac person, a slightly belligerent one at that, but its mostly in fun. He asked me if it were possible to load the mac operating system on to any computer.In theory I say why not. I mean if you do a wipe on a pc and load an OS wont it just load? I believe that on any pc there are inherent pieces of info on the mother board and things having to do with the hardware to make the machine run in DOS so you can turn it on. I think that its probably not possible, but if you...

Lemon-Entry My Dear Marlin.

feeds@yuku.com (Corporeal Clot) — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 22:41:38 GMT

When voltage (generated by the moving coil cartridge?) is applied to one coil (frequently called the primary or input) it magnetises the iron core, which induces a voltage in the other coil, (frequently called the secondary or output). The turns ratio of the two sets of windings determines the amount of voltage transformation.

Recording guitar onto the computer.

feeds@yuku.com (love policeman) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 20:52:06 GMT

I'm pulling my hairs out now trying to record the guitar onto my comp. I have an absolute stunning mix of Street of dreams here and each time I try to record the guitar into it the guitar sound sounds absolutely poo. I have a Rockfrog usb interface which I have tried in conjunction with guitar rig 3. Sounds bloody lovely when I am playing along to it but when I play it back it takes out all the crispy drum sounds and bits of the bass vanish.
I have also tried to record it through my...

feeds@yuku.com (heykeith) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:21:58 GMT

so whats your favorite damned song to sing along loudly with? i think mine is lively arts, at least at the moment. i think some music triggers euphoric recall and takes me back to the time i associate with the most fun

Is this messageboard in it's last breaths - is it time to turn off the life support?

feeds@yuku.com (The Marlin) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 08:18:28 GMT

I do enjoy popping into this messageboard to see what's going on, and chat about guitars and hi fi (and ocassionally The Damned) - but lately, it seems to be dieing in it's feet. Threads that haven't been touched in days are still near the top of the board. A few years ago, an unattended post would hve slid off the first page in a matter of hours.

In these days of Facebook, Myspace and Bebo, is a stand alone messageboard like this still relevant?

Early gig lists ?

feeds@yuku.com (DrSativa) — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 19:36:39 GMT

Hi fellow Damned fans. I first saw the Damned in 1979 at a small nighclub called 'Smartyz' in Chester. It was as i say a small place and Rat had to set up his kit in the DJ booth to the side of the stage, and they could only put up maybe half of their normal P.A. ! Needless to say a fantastic gig ensued, they just blew my head off
I am trying to remember just exactly when it was. Does anyone have any...
