Oh my god, I remember them. They were like the ipod back then...wonder did towel like them lol

There was even a pink version for girls, the Talk Girl. What a stupid name for a device tho, Talkboy

i kind of vaguely remember seeing one in a smyths catalogue but never in real life. i was the first in secondary school to have a mp3 player. tiny little yoke with no screen that ran off a single AAA battery. before that I had a 16mB 'disgo' usb drive and nobody knew what it was until i told them. i went around for a whole 2 days pretending to 'zap' people with that thing and most of them actually jumped

those disgo yokes were marketed as a 'true floppy killer' and of course everyone thought it was bull**** because i paid 50 eur for that thing and you could buy a whole box of floppies for that. but look how wrong they all were

Yeah remember those first MP3 players alright

Remember the tamagotchi craze

yea. i was in 6th class then. *everyone* had one. even me. the ****ing thing broke. will probably be worth thousands if you have an original white one in its box in a few years

Vinta81 · 18-05-2009 11:20pm

I had a 28mb mp3 player, had about 5 songs and I used to hold it on the bus all the time, then the nanos came out and my friend had one, yeah I quickly got my parents down to Harvey Normans lol.

Oh my God!! I had one of those, in fact I think it may still be around somewhere!! I have to find it! Screw my iPhone, Talkboy is where it's at!

Vinta81 · 19-05-2009 12:08pm

Can I borrow it if you do?

Tirabaralla · 19-05-2009 8:28pm

Ave.

Feeling even worst than last days on the heart&soul side (stopped in Dub on the way back just to be humiliated, it looks like...hope time will do good, I am so lost now and confused...I dont remember being treated like this very often, even if I TRY TO understand his reasons it hurts like hell to be mistreated by someone who said they loved and cared) but happy to be back in town.

Missed ye.

deRanged · 19-05-2009 9:27pm

sorry to hear that Tira.

I'm about to start into a G&T and listen to the Manics new album. love the cover art.

Vinta81 · 19-05-2009 10:15pm

Let me know how it is! I need to buy a couple of new albums this week.

Webmonkey · 19-05-2009 10:41pm

You sure love your music

I'm here learning a management module for college, one of my 2 exams. Its awful stuff to learn

Tirabaralla · 19-05-2009 10:53pm

Thank you, guys...awww...i can't wait for this horrible moment to be over.

Dan, I texted to the island about the SuperMac...it's not open yet and they dunno if is gonna be open this year...awww...I remember the used to serve the cod (loved your bloggy stuff).

I am sooooo tired.

Vinta81 · 19-05-2009 10:58pm

I really do! I am discovering way too many new bands/artists. Got the two "Cobra Starships" albums, probably not everyones cup of tea but man I'm utterly obsessed! Even one of my older brothers is asking me to play something new lol.

Tira, you should be in bed after all your travelling! You'll exhaust yourself!

I know u are right, Vinta.
I dread the sleep cause I am having nightmares lately $:\$ almost everytime i fall asleep in the late days.

dez_warlock · 19-05-2009 11:49pm

Yeah I'm a big music lover too. I get on average 10-20 albums a week (from my American cousins of course!) unless I really love the band and need to have the CD.

So what's everyone's favourite bands on here outta curiousity? Any recommendations?

Tirabaralla · 19-05-2009 11:59pm

Too tired to think of music, going to bed folks...
Sleep tight u all.

Vinta81 · 20-05-2009 12:21am

Cliche, but I've always loved Oasis, got it from my brother since I was a kid.

I love All-American Rejects, White Tie Affair, Motion City Soundtrack are brilliant, Paolo Nutini (singer) is wicked too, Jacks Mannequin are alright, a new band I'm really into are called "There for Tomorrow", Conditions are good too.

dez_warlock · 20-05-2009 12:38am

Cool, I like Motion City Soundtrack too!
My favourites would be Alexisonfire, Biffy Clyro, Darkest Hour, Rise Against, After the Burial and Mastodon. I have a really varied taste but generally am more into the rock/metal/alternative side of things. Love Johnny Cash too!

Vinta81 · 20-05-2009 12:44am

Johnny Cash is wicked! Although the whole "Walk The Line" bandwagon was annoying lol. Bob Dylan is always a classic, "the Hurricane" although my brother did say to listen to the Jimi Hendrix version of "All Along The Watchtower". I'm trying to think of others. I have apretty ecletic taste in music as well. I've got everything from Bob to The Rolling Stones to Britney to Jay Z to AAR to ABBA to AC/DC and Pavarotti on my iTunes lol.

John Mayer is my staple, can't go a day without listening to one of his records!

dez_warlock · 20-05-2009 12:50am

Cool, you have good taste

I have everything from All Shall Perish and Winds of Plague to Jerry Lee Lewis to Lady Gaga and Kelly Clarkson. Some pretty crazy combinations right there lol

I definitely have to go to lots of gigs over the summer, haven't been to many this year due to being so busy with college
