One of mine too, along with the usual suspects.

Subculture is one that doesn't seem to bet much play either, but I love it.

Well, if we're heading back to the 80s, this was always one of my favourites:-

Heaven 17 - Temptation



Have seen these guys play live twice now and will see them for a third time in May when they play one of our venues in Cambridge.
They play a hilarious and amazing show (albeit a bit sweary) but still fun all the same.

Cheers,

Rich.

We went to see an 80's band last year, they did a very good version of this amongst other things.

This is a big favourite of mine, much lighter than yesterdays :)

Something slightly off centre from the 80s...

Intro retro computers since before they were retro...
ZX81->Spectrum->Memotech MTX->Sinclair QL->520STM->BBC Micro->TT030->PCs & Sun Workstations.
Added code to the MiNT kernel (still there the last time I checked) + put together MiNTOS.
Collection now with added Macs, Amigas, Suns and Acorns.
