Oh Yes! Sonic would be the perfect addition for your forum!  Try getting Brian Hodgson too. Perhaps he'll help moderate?

Having Sonic there would be brilliant as I am a massive fan of his work with Spacemen 3 and Experimental Audio Research/Spectrum - and I'd love to hear more about the work that he and Delia Derbyshire worked on together. I have emailed him - just waiting (hoping!) for a reply from him now!
By the way, I see you are in Birmingham...Not far from me..Actually, I'm trying to find out about a video shop there called Cinephilia...I believe it's frequented by members of Broadcast and Pram...Do you know where it is?

This will make you totally freak;
Rosie (of Pram) is my wife!
So there!
Yes Cinephillia- started by our dear friend Taz. We have been friends of CP for 12 years or so- right there from the beginning. You may like to know that Tim split with Broadcast, and now has his own band with ex-Plone member Billy called SeeLand (named of course after the track by Neu!). Their Myspazz site is here

Oh my goodness! I wanted to go to see Pram last week at a venue in Birmingham, is it 'Green Street'? None of my friends had ever heard of it...and so I couldn't go 
I'm very much looking forward to hearing the new Pram material... 
So where can I find Cinephilia, and what can I expect to find there?
I knew about Tim leaving Broadcast - I have the Seeland 12" EP which came out on Duophonic, but have still to get the first 7".

CP is on Woodbridge road in Moseley.
Where are you coming from? Woodbridge Road is off Alcester Road- which if followed correctly, is accessible directly from the M6 motorway (via a complex network of tunnels  etc.)
CP started out as a purely arthouse video rental outlet but has gone a little mainstream since (probably because of the mount of yuppies that now frequent it!!). However, their stocks of DVD's are still low
(We get our DVD's from Tesco and Amazon online rental- much cheaper! )

There IS a new LP in the pipeline, but there yet needs to be finalisation of the new publishing contract with Domino Pizza...ahem.. records 
Basically Pram have come to the end of their contract with Domino, and have yet to decide what happens next. Rosie and I otoh are up to our necks with other commitments- such as bringing up 2 screaming children! All these things have slowed the development down of both the new LP and the last one (Dark Island).

Well, kids are more important than records! 'Dark Island' is actually one of my favourite Pram releases....Interested to know where the band will take their sound this time around...
Are you mates with the Broadcast guys?
I've been meaning to check out the Custard Factory as I heard it's quite cool there...
I live in Hereford and am up in Birmingham most weeks

I've known Jam, Roj, Trish, Tim and Steve for years. Steve left Broadcast and joined Pram for a while. Roj now lives in Nottingham where he lectures in Electronic music at Nottingham uni. Tim, Jam and Trish still live in Kings Heath, here in Birmingham.

I really dislike (HATE) the Custard Factory. I once got turned down by them after suggesting opening a shop there. They told me that they were trying to create 'Bohemia' Fucking hippie-yuppie idiots! You can't 'create' bohemia, as bohemia creates itself- like it did once in Moseley, Balsall Heath and Kings Heath. Tony Blair and his vile government put pay to that  Those twats at the Custurd Factory remind me of that line from the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy;- "We're trying to reinvent the wheel, but can't work out what colour it should be"
I don't hate the custurd factory because they turned me down, I just hate the venue anyway- way too clinical for me. I much prefer smaller pub-based venues

Didn't Broadcast, Stereolab and Pram all share a house together at some point in London?
I'm trying to track down a copy of Broadcast's Microtronics 1 tour CD - no luck anywhere
..and, err, do you know Spithead????

No.
That is a myth. Neither Pram or Broadcast have ever lived in London (although we are all good friends of the Lab ). However, we have all shared houses up here at different points. Both of us got fed up with sharing and bought our own.
Spithead? No- never heard of them. Nor has Roz- I just asked her. Sorry.

I did share a flat (well- slept on the sofa!) with Matt Elliott and Dave Pearce of the 3rd Eye Foundation and Flying Saucer Attack, when I lived in Bristol- although that was yonks ago.

That's really interesting, because I've read about the Stereolab/Broadcast/Pram sharing thing in London several times....discussed in the Broadcast and Stereolab forums...Just goes to show, don't believe everything you read, eh?

It's just a human thing.
One guy says to another: "Well, just being thrown out. Maybe I can stay at so-and-so's place for a while..." and the myth (or gossip) is born...
Interpretation of information, that's what it's all about. (Where do those English spoken people put all those 's in their sentences?)

Can you reference this for me? ie any links? I'd be most interested to read them
Like Wout points out, its a human thing to exaggerate these myths- perhaps that's why our (English) society is such a mess?
I'm sure Broadcast have stayed with Stereolab from time to time, that would make sense, because they both share the same manager- Pikey. Pram have also stayed with Mouse on Mars in Cologne, as have Stereolab. (Jan and Andi danced round my living room- doing the 'conga' wearing my ironed underpants on their heads too- but we won't go there!! - at that party Sonic Boom and Dave Pajo (Slint, Ariel M etc), Tim, Laetitia, Mary (RIP ), and a lot of others were also present. Those days are long over )

the 's denotes possession
Fred's synth = synth belonging to Fred
Such fun

ah, that is one of the other uses of the apostrophe s
that's = abbreviation of that is
tha apostrophe replaces the missing letter or letters
