Italia, Italia



Posted by ShoZu



I snapped this shot of two Italian Girls sitting in the boot of an estate after Italy's 2-0 win over France. Well, at least it makes a change from being on the roof which some of the Spanish fans did the other week. Maybe they were just born to go.

If the Dutch win tonight there'll probably be hundreds of orange bedecked bikes everywhere. I'm hoping they go through, Holland are arguably the most entertaining team in the tournament, closely followed by Spain. Spain v Holland would be something else. I hope that Turkey get knocked out,my flat in Belgium is in the main Turkish enclave.They kept me awake last Sunday celebrating their victory over the Czechs. If they go on to win the competition I'll just have to join in I think.

George - The NL just didn't come to play last night unfortunately, Russia had more ideas & goals.
Will Spain get rid of their failure hoodoo in late of competition tonight against Italy?
I hope not.

Given where you are in the heart of Belgium you will have to adopt the frontier Libyan civilians during the Desert War WW2 keep a different flag for every eventuality!

Did no one else notice the foul on Van Nistelroy when he narrowly missed scoring at full stretch. He missed making contact by inches and the Rusian defender pulled him back by the shirt 3 times just before. Without the pullback I think he'd have reached the ball and scored. As it was it should have been a penalty and possibly a red card.

I did indeed see it, pity the linesman wasn't as alert as he was the final minutes sending off retraction for Russia!
Pity.

My typo above was intended to read I hope Spain throw off their quarter finals hoodoo and that they beat Italy this evening - now i'd like that!

Life On Mars Soundtrack

Am I mad, in a coma, or have I just been listening to the Life On Mars Original Soundtrack CD. Most excellent. Not surprising really as the picking ground for material, the 70's, has been identified as the best decade for popular music. My only criticism of it is the lack of any Hawkwind , not that I'm biased, especially as the show has featured Brainstorm , Silver Machine , Urban Guerrilla , Ejection and You Shouldn't Do That over its two seasons. Still there's always the potential for a second soundtrack album at some stage in the future and plenty of material still to chose from. Track Listing King Of The Jungle (dialogue) David Bowie - Life On Mars Roxy Music - Street Life Wings - Live And Let Die ELO - 10538 Overture John Kongos - Tokoloshe Man Atomic Rooster - Devil's Answer T Rex - Rock On Free - Little Bit Of Love Lee 'Scratch' Perry and the Upsetters - Jungle Lion Armed Bastards (dialogue) The Sweet - Blockbuster The Faces - Cindy Incidentally A

The 100 Best and Absolute Greatest Heavy Metal Albums in the World, Ever.

As I've just about completed my collection of 100 CDs culled from Jacelyn Bond's damn fine book, and bastard of a charade title, The 100 Best and Absolute Greatest Heavy Metal Albums in the World, Ever , I thought it was about time I blogged the list to aid anyone else who wants to make their world a little heavier. Collecting the albums has been a long strange trip through the annals of rock history and taken me through classics by the likes of Sabbath, AC/DC and Deep Purple to Scandinavian Death Metal. Yes the choices are debateable but the book is a great way of discovering some wonderful music to headbang like a maniac to. It's got some notable omisions too, in particular a certain Black Country band who most would argue are the greatest rock and roll band of all timel and who cast a giant blimp shaped shaddow over the genre. In addition to the 100 albums I've also listed the other albums by the bands concerned that the book says are worth getting, so if any of
