    It's the hope that kills you.

    Has anybody else ever noticed that although there are loads of bands with fish related names, none of them are very good?

    That moment when you know the takeover isn’t going to happen and the main bloke ITK tries to change the thread topic..
    I'm not blinkin' ITK. My previous couple of messages from GM should show you that. Livin' off scraps!

    Chicken Hirsh from CJ and the Fish actually looked like a fish.

    No one's mentioned Fischer-Z (band name with a pun included). Decent new wave outfit from Brighton.

    Who we played in a friendly last night...

    OK I've run out of connections now...

    I liked Noah and the Whale and thought they were good
    Sorry to be a pedant but a whale isn’t a fish.

    Also, I thought you were finished on Charlton Life? You saw the fish bands and were reeled back in?

    Fish or not, I still think they were very good.
    As for me being finished with Charlton Life, I love it on here, all the banter, show me where I have ever said I was finished

    Just a thought...If you fed eels with LSD and wrapped the eels around a mans neck, would he be considered a tranvestite for wearing high eels?

    Yes.

    And to cross-pollinate from the summer tunes thread, there's always Fleetwood Mackerel.

    I've started playing "takeover thread roulette".

    Each morning I click onto a random historic thread page and for that day I'll get through a few consecutive pages pretending that it's in real time.

    Yesterday was shite as page 426-429 and the takeover was firmly off so was in a poxy mood.

    Today was epic though as it was page 232 whereby something is definitely happening this week and I'm racing through posts positive it will have happened by the time I get to page 239 and turn in for the night so I am currently absolutely buzzing with excitement.

    Just seen an "it's happening gif" so am beside myself.

    So bored of trawling through pages of nothing on this thread I've now started to re read from page 1 "Weirdest thing a colleague has done" so much more enjoyable :smile:

    Well that seems do have done the bands. What about fish songs? The Cure - Bananafishbones, B52s - Rock Lobster, Fats Waller - Seafood Mama, then there's the old Barnes & Barnes classic Fishheads.
