Art School vs Agricultural College
Posted by Prestonia on 28 May 2011 - 1:14am.
Beards. Plaid shirts. Jumpers. Songs about seasons and cereal crops. Fleet Foxes. Midlake. Etc. Agricultural colleges are the new art schools when it comes to hotbeds of young musical talent. Discuss.
I'm off to bed.

but ...
how many of these agricultural records will you listen to in 6 months?
Agricultural college
All I will say about my time at agricultural college is :-
I got to hang out with Noel Redding ( who lived nearby and gigged the local pubs )
17 years olds should not have access to explosives ( my bedroom door did not see the year out )
Judging from the local yoot,
I'd guess that Ag students will listen to anything that isn't the chugging drone of a 12 litre diesel engine, the sound of 200 groaning milkers fit to split at 4:30 in the morning, or the odd noise made by a PTO when something nasty has got caught in the shaft. As long as it's accompanied by vast quantities of fags, vodka and cider.
Whenever I had the misfortune to hear
Dave Lee Travis, he always seemed to be preparing for or recalling one of his Agricultural College 'gigs' where, no doubt, he'd play Laurie Lingo & The Dipsticks and call the crowd 'Pilchards!' What a cunt.
