OK, so I have written a novel set in Sheffield, which has had me listening to Pulp (along with other music from the city) as part of my imaginary soundtrack. Sheffield: Sex City has figured a lot, given the themes of the novel, and repeated plays make me think there's an additional place name in the openi...

Obviously they went on to host some pretty legendary artists like NMH and Pere Ubu, but how small were they when Pulp were signed? Local scale? Any media traction> -- Edited by greezer47 on Sunday 27th of April 2025 05:41:08 PM

It might be a good idea to keep all the chatter of tomorrow's events in the same place. Maybe folk can use the spoiler tags too when talking about the new material...or perhaps not, and those of us not attending tomorrow, can choose not to read on here until the album comes out next week! If anyone is going...

BBC Look North (the Yorkshire edition, not sure if it's on anywhere else but it'll certainly be on iPlayer) is doing a segment on the 30th anniv of Common People tonight. I'm on it, and so is Nick apparently. Essential viewing!

Hello! As a new member of this illustrious forum, here's my contribution: A first list of songs where I find a clear influence of the best band in Sheffield (and the world).

"Got to Have Love" has now been released as the second single from "More" Well, I was lucky enough to hear it and see the video last night as someone ripped it then uploaded it to Reddit before quickly taking it down.

Was listening to the Bandsplain podcast and Yasi reports this as something that actually took place....of course, this obviously didn't happen as we all must know - Common People and Underwear were played in 1994, Pencil Skirt and Monday Morning materialised in early 1995, plus Glastonbury intro...

Hiya! This is my first post on Bar Italia. I'm Ester, some of you may already know me. Was wondering if anyone was planning on attending the Hardcore book launch on Thursday? I'm really looking forward to it!

This means, news is imminant, given my track record. It was a strange dream. I'm not sure if I should tell you. You might think I'm weird. -- Edited by SarahAWilson on Saturday 24th of December 2011 09:17:55 PM

A new video of "Help The Aged" on November 21, 1997 is available on YouTube. Then I found the full show that seems available on BBC iPlayer.

Just wanted to say that I am loving the additions to the PulpWiki recently, to add little drop pins to each live location so they can be found on maps - and cross-referenced with other Pulp gigs that took place there. Lovely stuff. That's all.

With everyone looking for Pulp news, interviews and comments at the moment, it feels the right time to throw this out.
