Its Paulo's live review of Dave's cd, i shall be typing my thoughts as the tracks play, sort of like a John Motson of music reviewing! Remarkable!
1 - Delayed kick-off here at the Musicalion Stadion Olympico, as the first track is skipping like schoolgirl with a new rope! From what i can hear though its utter faeces, so no loss... Arjen Robben dive.
2 - Next track and its exactly the same, again from what i can make out its turd... David Busst's leg.
3 - Finally kick-off, and its some interesting play in a unusual funk-indie cover stylee. 10 yard side-footed goal.
4 - Adequate rock playing that i've heard before but can't remember who... goal...no,handball, the ref's disallowed it!
5 - There's an injury, on comes the insipid characterless girl singer to send everyone to sleep with something that sounds like an off-cut from The O.C... Tackle from behind.
6 - hmmm, its a bit gay really, although she did just say fudged-off. Graeme Le Saux.
7 - Acoustic noodling about dying... nice! Putting the ball out for an injury.
8 - Things have picked up, some buzzing play ups the ante. Can the singer deliver? He's doing ok, his midfield bass player back-up is controlling play, allowing the guitars to get forward for chances. Can they put one away? Goal! The singer plays a one-two with the backing vocals, looking for the big finish... hits the bar! Unlucky, but move of the match so far!
9 - There's a problem with the stadium sound system, play seems a bit distant... its petering out as we approach half-time, people are going to the loo and getting a beer rather than listen. Chelsea defending a lead.
Half time analysis... well, a poor start to the game, things picked up before settling into something of a lull, a quick burst of action before petering out again... time for a pie.
10 - The second half gets under way, the players appear to have come out sporting permed mullets and really tight kits, like we're back in the 80's... its an absymal start to the second half. Ref stops play and moves the free-kick forward 3 minutes. Coventry winning '87 Cup Final.
11 - A period of play where there's lots of nice, neat passing, but seemingly no end-product. Just took two minutes away to answer the phone, come back and its still exactly the same. Dull 0-0 draw.
12 - Might have been good if they'd set up the microphones to record the music in the same room as the people playing it. Spurs push for a champions league place.
13 - Play picks up again, some nice passing movement, these boys are ok. Hits the post... but sticks in the rebound! Goal!
14 - The entertaining play continues, midfield dominance from the guitars, ably backed up in defence by the drums. Weak point is the vocalist strikers, they're a bit lightweight to carry a real attacking threat. Probably better watching them in the stadium than at home in an arm-chair... Wigans Carling Cup run.
15 - There's a substitution, an attempt to calm things down by bringing on a sweeper. Stabilises play, but makes it a little dull. Owen Hargreaves.
16 - Attempting to see out the result with some dull, poorly produced indie rubbish. Fulham FC.
17 - Time running out, an attempt to turn play around with a last minute super-sub. Unfortunately the sub in question is... Peter Crouch.
18 - Into injury time and there's suddenly a late push for a different result! Unfortunately they've brought on that bloke who says "This is a journey into sound...", you remember him, from appalling dancey records from the late 80's? Like something Dj Format would do but not as good. Second yellow card, off.
Full time, and from 18 chances only 2 goals, lots of mediocre stuff and a good dollop of Sunderland.
