Ha got me for a second. Its an interesting point though thats it's a cover off a tune which has borrowed another tune, almost blues like !

Have only got 3/4 of the way through the documentary so far but I liked the sound of the heavier song (very manics instrumental-esque sound to it) about 40mins in. Couldn't work out on first listen if that was another take on the riff or something different entirely.

Being welsh I dont tend to get too romantic about the accent (especially the North,shudder) but I could listen to Gruff Rhys speak for hours so am glad he pops up a lot in this

Not the TV/radio, but I went to a bar/restaurant in Leeds this afternoon called The Pit and Tolerate came on.

I'll watch it, but seriously, ANOTHER documentary on Everything Must Go era? There was the one from 10th anniversary album which was very long and thorough, then another one on the 20th version, now this? I'd rather it be about ALL their career and be a few hours long. Least it's on TV and not put on another deluxe version that only a handful of people will know about and see.

Manics were the 3 in 10 question on todays popmaster again on Radio 2. The guy answered with Motorcycle Emptiness, Theme From MASH and Tolerate.

I'm listening to Frank Skinner's radio programme and they played If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next.

Stuart Maconie saw the film last night and will be talking about it on 6 Music News in a bit.

Life Becoming A Landslide on 6Music today. In a hip-hop special. Obviously.

Seems that Absolute 90s played Small Black Flowers and No Surface last night. I was looking back on the website at the previous MSP songs they've played in the last month or so, they've played most of the singles from GT (i think the only one I didn't see was LSE), all from GATS, EMG, Truth and Faster once. Also they've played Natwest Barclays Midlands Lloyds a few times, usually around 4am.

I'm listening to Frank Skinner's radio programme and they played Motorcycle Emptiness an hour ago.

I have never heard the Manics on the radio - then again I live in the USA.

BUT - I did hear AD4L in a McDonald's in Poughkeepsie, NY (near Woodstock).
