Dad Rock


Wow, some of these classic rock bands are getting oooold. I think it's quite an interesting concept, spending your entire 'working' life in a band. But when you look at groups like The Rolling Stones and Aerosmith - who have hit retirement age but should have long ago thrown in the towel because they're tired and doughy now - the idea of bands signing up their own kids puts a whole new spin on things.

Who else is doing this, and which band will be the first to be completely replaced by their own offspring? It's all a bit weird and biological and asexual-reproductiony.

Know thine cheese

Was chatting with HF earlier today. She suggested toast as a remedy for my Samsung bluescreen woes, and mentioned that a workmate of hers has mashed banana on toast. "It looks like melted cheese," and she even offered to take a photo of how much it looks like cheese. I suggested she could post it on www.CheeseOrNotCheese.com to gauge the opinions of a wider audience, but this site doesn't exist yet. Surely this is a web opportunity that is ripe for the picking?
