I was wondering how this thread still existed, and now I see it's because we aren't talking about the song anymore.Marky Dread wrote: ↑20 May 2019, 8:32amI suppose I would describe it as somewhere inbetween.

This local company called Schilling makes a really good grapefruit cider that I'm quite addicted to. I normally don't go in for cider.Heston wrote: ↑20 May 2019, 12:57pmHang on, we had 45 pages of appreciation until the cider drinkers weighed in.Kory wrote: ↑20 May 2019, 12:56pmI was wondering how this thread still existed, and now I see it's because we aren't talking about the song anymore.Marky Dread wrote: ↑20 May 2019, 8:32amI suppose I would describe it as somewhere inbetween.

Re: We Built This City On Rock and Roll appreciation thread
I'm happy about this cider talk as I know it won't be long before we return to the thread and chat about how great this song is. Or I'll just get drunk again and bump it up in a couple of months time, either way, the thread stays relevant.

Re: We Built This City On Rock and Roll appreciation thread
I dislike my dog sometimes.
Ok so I'm on our usual evening walk. Headphones in, playlist on random, getting some good stuff. Dog happy to sprint along, nice evening, perfick. WBTCORAR comes on, excitement travels through my body like electricity. I'm rocking along on my walk, dog loving life nearly as much as me, I decide to switch that volume up. "Oooh," I thought, "that's firing on all cylinders now." The song continues into that lovely instrumental bit where you're wondering where it'll go from here, how it could possibly get better. The final "Marconi plays the mamba" is coming up, it's an epic moment. It's nearing closer, nearly there, almost at climax and bang!
The dog decides to shit. She just shits. Ruins the momentum of the walk and tune, ruins the end of a great song. Walk ruined.
