The new football season is go! The betting account is off to a 100% flyer thanks to Coventry and Birmingham but my Reading supporting expectations took a little knock yesterday as we looked average at best in our 0-0 bore draw. The Prem season kicks off on Saturday and my Fantasy Football team looks like a squad of superhero stallions.This week we have the This Town Needs Guns/Pennines split 7" an
In boxing parlance, a "tomato can" is a hand-picked schlub brought in to go a few rounds with the champ, whose odds of scoring an upset are comparable to say, Madison, Wisconsin landing the next games of the Olympiad.While these guys are technically professional fighters, at least when they're not earning a living as roofers, drywallers and doing other jobs that don't require a background check, it's not uncommon for the town drunk to take one glassy-eyed look at one of these soft around the midriff ham 'n' eggers and think to themselves, "I could take 'em"--especially if he's facing the other way and I'm swinging a barstool.

This is a good thing, by the way.
So, arriving shortly after doors open, we're amazed to see a band actually going on stage. What kind of devilry is this? A band? Onstage before nine? Just what kind of gig venue is this, with bands running on time and everything? Even more encouraging than that is the huge number of pedals by the guitarist's feet. I suspect that Boypatient are going to be shoegaze, but no.

Neil and Chris have given their 'Barfly' recording of 'It's A Sin' for a forthcoming compilation album. When the Pet Shop Boys performed at the Camden Barfly in March 2004 for the War Child charity, they programmed a new version of 'It's A Sin' and later recorded it in their own studio, shortly before performing it on the 'Parkinson' TV show. This is it's first release. The album called 'Popjustice: 100% Solid Pop' is a non-stop mix of everything that's right in the world of pop, the compilation album celebrates an eclectic array of artists, with other exclusive tracks from Girls Aloud and Sophie Ellis-Bextor to indie-pop favourites The Killers and The Automatic. It's released on Monday 30th October 2006.Pet Shop Boys - It's A Sin (Barfly Mix)
