Just wondering if anybody knows if the iPlayer radio is offline? Just tried to listen to Tom Robinson's show on 6music but it wouldn't connect. I tried to listen to other stations, and older shows, but no joy! I'm in Ireland, but I'm usually able to listen to live, and old shows!

Just discovered a cool site that streams live concerts. It's called Wolfgang's Vault (http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/)just click on 'Concert Vault' and you get a ton of live gigs! It requires you to register but it's worth it. The other site I've found (thanks to on of the Word massive!) is Deezer. Excellent site that allows you to stream full albums, and it's completely legal! Anyone got anymore to add?

Just read this article on the Guardian website http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2008/jul/24/digitalmedia.piracy. Just wanted to know everyone's thoughts on this move? Is it a step in the right direction or too little too late?

I went to see Paul Weller at The Marquee, Cork last night, and it was fantastic. Lots of energy, and Weller really enjoying himself. The crowd loved it, well everyone except my mate! You see, he went with the sole purpose of hearing Weller play some Style Council tunes, and when he got none he was really annoyed.

Now, I had told him that Weller usually doesn't play a lot of stuff from the 80s but this fell on deaf ears. He was of the opinion that people (him mainly) paid a lot of money for a ticket so should get a lot of old hits. I'm of the opinion that I want to hear what the artist is currently doing, and don't really mind if he plays really old stuff!

It obviously helps that I like Weller and know his solo records fairly well, but I still thought that it was unrealistic of my mate to expect him to play a load of Style Council or Jam tunes. Or am I wrong? what does everyone think?

ps. For the record here is a close enough set list to what he played last night.

Looking for something new to listen to, can anyone recommend any new albums worth checking out? I hear a lot of people talking about Fleet Foxes, is it worth buying?

Just wondering if anybody else is suffering from "shuffle-itis"? I had to stop using my ipod for a bit because I was only listening to less than a minute of a song before skipping to the next! It got so bad that friends banned me from operating the ipod in the car or at parties! So, I decided to take a break and just listen to one album at a time, just like when I was a teenager, and I've actually re-discovered the pleasure of listening to complete albums. At the moment it's "Closing Time" by Tom Waits. Has this happened to anyone else or is it just me?!

Been listening to the December 07 cd, and I'm being driven mad trying to figure out who the band "The Elephants" sound like! The only info I have is that they sound like an American band, maybe from the 1990s!.Can anyone help? i'm getting a headache trying to think of who it is!!!
