    Morrissey / The Smiths

    I love the smiths! Can't stop listening to them! To name a few favourites - Reel Around The Fountain, This Charming Man, Hand In Glove and How Soon Is Now. I can honestly say i've never heard a bad track by them and I have most of them. Great band! :cool:

    I'd rather read Dan Brown than . . . . Maeve Binchy and listen to rave *shudders* Note: I don't actually hate Dan Brown but I can't say I like him either, I'm sitting on the fence.

    NME - New Musical Express

    Does anyone read NME? I have a weekly train ride from Nottingham to Kettering, I always pick up NME at the station and read it on the way. I think it's a really good magazine! It covers all the genres of music i like - indie, emo, screamo, post-hardcore etc. :D

    How often do you read?

    I read everyday in general, even if it's only a few pages. I like to read for about 2 hours a day if possible. I must admit, today was the first time I've read in 4 days, had a really busy Easter weekend. Nevermind, i'll just have to make up for it :rolleyes:
