Quote of the day

"February 25: Metallica play the Ice Arena, resulting in the greatest Evening Post forum quote ever, from 'Brian of Grantham': 'the best 2 bands in the world r guns n roses and metallica and seein gnr at milton keynes in 93 (with long hair) was possibly the best day of my life ... the 2nd best day was when i saw metallica at download 2006 (again with long hair) ... I've now had my hair cut off as i got it caught in a tractor last september'".

Aw, the East Midlands. I miss it. Just hearing the accent on this week's frankly rubbish installment of The Secret Millionaire got me all misty-eyed. Looking forward to a night out there over the Bank Holiday weekend, though I suspect there'll be some moping around outside what used to be Selectadisc too.
