"Pull Shapes" is such a fantastic song!
I was gonna say! Amazing! I'll definitely get their album when it's out. Excellent recommendation, Stephan!

If you are interested in museums and you are not too bored with them, you can visit the Grand Master's Palace and the museum, in the mediaeval town (if you haven't already) A helpful link for the old town: http://www.rhodes.gr/oldtown.html
nope, not yet. In the city of Rhodes there is a 'festival' called Sound & Light (Ήχος και Φως - ichos ke fos). It is a kind of "theatre" without actors, it's sort of like a performing art combined with lights and architecture. I'll make it simple: you are surrounded by trees and you can see the castle, and the 'play' incorporates sounds and lights, and it's like the sounds come from nature... It's actually pretty cool. This is where it is located: http://www.hellenicfestival.gr/site/s&l/images/Rodes_s&l4_big.jpg and from there you see the castle, sort of like this (you are inside, though, you can't see the boats ) http://www.hellenicfestival.gr/site/s&l/images/Rodes_s&l2_big.jpg The play is in various languages and you can find leaflets with the programme and the hours etc, but here it is:
(you can tell I've photoshoped the days to write them in English
) It's rather cheap (6 euro I think, and free for children up to 10 years old) so you could visit it one day if you like. I'll see what else I can find and I'll post again.
http://www.myspace.com/thepipettes http://www.thepipettes.co.uk/ I like how they have "Step inside, loves" in the first page of their website... anti-beatles you say? also,
but just to demonstrate that there can be brilliant retro-music without the overwhelming influence of the beatles
that's impossible they sound great though!

Stefan - I think I've heard of the Pipettes - where are they from? What style of music do they play?
they`re from brighton; they are trying to come up with a contemporary version of early 60s-girl groups like the shangri-las or ronettes (john lennon would have loved them)! Another interesting thing about them. They are strictly ANTI-Beatles... not because they hate them (they don`t); but just to demonstrate that there can be brilliant retro-music without the overwhelming influence of the beatles; their melodies are breathtaking, and their lyrics are very funny; it`s a very female sense of humour, though. Most songs are about "losers" that are trying to be their boyfriends... In "One Night Stand" the chorus goes: "I don`t love you - I don`t want you - if you think that this is cruel then you should see what my friends do - I don`t love you - I don`t want you - leave me alone you`re just a one night stand!"... they sing it in their sweetest voices...
Their album is so brilliant. 14 songs; each one a potential hit! The perfect summer-album (it will be out in a month!)... BTW; I know so much about them, cos I had a phoner with one of them just half an hour ago!
where can we get their album?
so, any luck on those websites?
amazing new avatar!!
I wouldn't think that way. You're talented and you can only get better with time. Who knows, maybe some day you find an even better songwriting partner. Good luck.
that sucks. I'm sorry it ended up like this. Hope you do well with your solo project, though.
Sorry to hear that, Stephan. On a lighter note, you look way too cool!
I am straight, but I know a good looking lady when I see her. For Scarlett I would be gay any time.
καλή φάση. Γεια σου Μισέλ

I was referring to Britain. I still don't understand the reason of your participation, but whatever. Bye.

first of all...I am not offensive, you stated wanna be Uker's. I laughed, next, you appreciated my laughing, finally, I will always be a proud american, wanna be brit is just very funny to me thats all-if you find that offensive. I am so sorry to have offended you. But remember there still are an inordinate number of foreign folks applying daily for US citizenship. That is no laughing matter. Thats all mr/ms/mrs/whomever Kaleidoscope. C
when I lived in Britain I saw an "inordinate" number of foreigners living there. There is a great number of immigrants in my country as well. What is your point exactly? What is the weather like up there in the island anyway? Is it getting warm?
I already deleted the post I wrote (the mods would delete it anyway). I don't know what to say. Why are you posting in this thread? It says UK WT Thread, it doesn't say UK Thread, Proud Americans Come In And Be Offensive. Take your pride and go play some place else.

WHAT? Wanna Be? OMG, this post has got to be a joke?
glad to amuse you.
