I hate forums that have long lists of "rules" for people to abide by who just want to talk about stuff. I also hate forums with moderators with itchy trigger-fingers and an inflated sense of self-worth. There are, though, sadly, a few things which just aren't allowed. I really don'...

I've just found out (via a royalty statement) that a quote from my book was used on Never Mind the Buzzcocks at some point in the second half of last year. I don't suppose anyone happened to catch the episode? Didn't know you got paid for stuff like that but apparently you do!

Should anyone be interested in seeing Jarv's Gallic hero (and fashion inspiration) Michel Polnareff, he is still going at 80y.o. and he has a show in Hammersmith on 3rd April. There are worse things you could do on a Thursday night.

Apparently Pulp are playing Tramlines festival in Sheffield. Their logo was printed on a bottle of Hendersons relish that was distributed to promote the festival ahead of the official lineup announcement on Monday.

Any reviews/comments from anyone here? I'm trawled through threads and may have missed some, but the Independent review mentions 'other members of Pulp' etc. so just wondering who was there, what form it took etc?

Not directly Pulp related, but a sort of thank you to the community. Ive been taking a trip down memory lane looking at my old blog posts from the height of my obsession with Steve 13 years ago (eugh the passage of time).

Tonight's TOTP repeat features the first of 6 performances from Pulp on the show in 1995. I always watch them anyway, but thought a thread would be useful for anyone not in the habit of watching.

Said with the recognition that esoteric is fairly meaningless in a group of people who are intimately familiar with their back catalogue. Anyway mine is Sprski Jeb because it feels very quintessentially Russell. Also very partial to That Boys Evil.

Tickets go on sale tomorrow, so starting a thread for it. Will Pulp play there for the 30th anniversary of that performance? Or will they for some reason not do that?

Long time lurker first time poster here. John Smith has a new film showing at Kate MacGarry, near Shoreditch High Street/Brick Lane in east London, which is well worth seeing if you can. It straddles a documentary and an art film, and is pleasingly dry humoured. Smith was Jarvis's tutor at St Martins...
