Ok Folks, I have taken the liberty of starting off another Grey Room...please feel free to come up with some suggestions for the new name...
as it is, the same biscuit crumbs are matted into the carpet, pile of washing up in the sink, and beer stains on the dining table, so make yourselves at home....  ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

| I hope the original Grey Room entries are being archived and held for posterity. I suggest we publish it as a book. A few hundred pages of bullsh*t maybe, but that doesn't seem to have stopped Jordan selling loads of books. |

Hah! I thought the original GR had been closed as we'd finally managed to offend someone 
We need to come up with some serious 'Grey' issues to discuss toot-sweet; it's all too easy for a thread like this to fade away when re-opened as a newie 
An idea for a new name? 
Change?

Obviously I'm traumatised by the death of the original GR, and regret having not contributed much to it, but as my 40th birthday looms - well in 5 months, I like to think I will have plenty of grey issues to discuss here.
In Spinal Tap tradition, the even greyer room does raise the question how much more grey can one get? and the answer is none... None more grey...

Too old to rock and roll but too young to die. I like to think that I fit in between the two categories as well. The occasional silver hair shows up from time to time, but no outwardly grey appearances as of yet. I was alive when prog was at its height, but not nearly old enough to have been affected by it until years later. -------------

Yes, Pat, but you're male. (It shouldn't make a difference, but it sort of does, I think...  ) The PA youth movement can look up to you as a role model... As for me... I fear they'd consider me matronly.  (I guess most people our age are diligently WORKING instead of having inane online conversations!

well, my feelings on the re-naming of this room are that each of our beloved regulars should come up with a suggestion. Whichever one which meets with the pre-requisite number of grunts, sighs and strains of approval, should be handed over, either to Jim or Dean for an official naming ceremony...
..all this however is on the provisio that he who initially created the domain, Steve the Mystic one, offers a belch of approval... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

Quite - we've already had one quote pyramid, which was something (relatively) unheard of in the GR - we generally have the patience to pick exactly the part of a post to which we wanted to refer, as opposed to just hitting 'quote'. Also you know people don't understand the depth & level of us Greys when they seriously suggest renaming our beloved GR after some appalling lager. Personally, I quite like Natural Science's suggestion for a new name, i.e 'The Shed'; it's certainly easier on the eye than my initial thought of 'The Sunshine Home For The Terminally Bewildered' - of course, the GR was originally Steve's baby, so he should have the last -------------

Too intelligent?
We do occasionally tolerate those of a youthful aspect here, after all, you're older than James (aka Google Boy ) & being of the female persuasion, Vicky and Rachel would certainly welcome you*; the main question is do you have (or have access to) a shed? If so, how many dead cans of paint does it contain & most importantly, do you have a special stick with which to stir your paint?

I think it's time, in deference to the Grey Room's founder to re-post his opening speech from 2006:
Behold - the Mission Statement from our founder. It's our solemn duty to uphold Steve's original ideals & not descend into suede-esque banality. We must remember the feel and the atmosphere of the original, when days could go by without a post, but they were usually well worth reading when they appeared. Further to which: Does anyone remember exactly how the interior of a 1950s/1960s car smelled on a hot day? Cloth seat trim doesn't have that certain something as good old leather or crackled vinyl & certainly doesn't have the same effect when hot as the old materials used to have on school-shorts clad 5 year old legs...  -------------

It absolutely peed down here this morning, fortunately it stopped just before I had to leave for work. The entrance to Hornchurch station, which floods if someone sheds a tear in the forecourt, was under water, as was the road going past. I had to take a detour to get in the station, it was either that or take the shoes and socks off and paddle in. All the t**ts with their 4x4s were driving past at 30mph just to show off, causing tidal waves that soaked a few pedestrians.

I believe Dean installed one of those before...the problem was, the kids were somehow able to 'reverse' the filter, which just ended up keeping the oldies out... ------------- Music has always been a matter of energy to me.

Oh well, just as long as we don't start seeing Arctic Monkeys posters on the wall. I prefer the teak panelling and claret paintwork to stay unfettered. ------------- When people get lost in thought it's often because it's unfamiliar territory. |

I don't mind posters of The Arctic Monkeys, so long as they are photographed in the middle of being hung, drawn & quartered until they're really sorry for pretending to be in any way, shape, form or manner talented. -------------

forgive me Jim, but I don't think there are any monkeys in the arctic...the last surviving one had their
frozen off in the late 18th century......are you sure they're not albino ones on the posters??

Now that's an idea.Let's send the Sheffield Indie Pap combo to the Arctic to have their nether-regions frozen off...Doh! It won't work. Bl**dy Global Warming. -------------
