CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
So tech issue means that event (from Summerhall) didn't stream at 7.
Instead BBC Scotland TV channel will show at 11pm.
Not sure if that is a last minute arrangement?
Good move anyway - broadcast media don't broadcast that much 'new music' from Scotland (all genres). Chvrches did the opening of new channel and bands like Elephant Sessions do get on BBC Alba.
Scotmid were playing Once In A lifetime boy the Talking Heads just there. I sang as I bought the tea.
Mad tune @bax.
Second half of Vic Galloway's show has an entertaining interview with Alan McGee - founder of Creation Records and well known as manager of Oasis.
Not a fan of that particular band but the stories are good. The relationship with No 10 as a Labour supporter and Malcolm McLaren's bid to become mayor of London (!) all come up. Good blethery stuff with Vic asking the right questions.

And on BBC Sounds.
Mad tune @bax
magical early eighties estonian folk-punk-disco
now that you're familiar @iwrats, i tell you, should you ever hear this track again out of nowhere, you will stop dead in your tracks, raising your arms exultant to the heavens, shouting YES
mark my words that day will come for you, like it came for me
@bax
I know an Estonian welder. He introduced me to Estonian folk metal and also taught me the Estonian word for 'sparrowhawk' which is a talisman.
I await my day.
Nice one Prof French.
In episode5 of Mandy Eat Yourself Fitter by the Fall features to great effect.
@bax san, I do like John Wardle/Jah Wobble’s bass line on this track
right in the middle of this i see a big bonfire

Shall I mourn your decline? With some Thunderbird wine?
