Thurston Moore is 50.

He's 50..?! How did that happen? Where did the last 10 years go?

He looked about 15 til he was 30, but yes, he's 50 now which means Kim must be.... 55!!!!!! And still lookin' fab. A short survey of fellas and lezzers at the London gig on Monday night reveals that yes, they all still would.

New songs sound good but not amazing, but the last few albums have taken a while to grow on me.

Cheers Jasper, sounds like you have an awfully bad cold though.

He was a bit of a late bloomer. He would have been about 30 when Daydream Nation came out, you'd be forgiven for thinking they were little blonde headed cherubs of 22/23.

Funny, I was watching Jools last night and I thought that the closeups of Lee and Kim did neither of them any favours.

I think Kim was 56 yesterday.

"Sonic Youth's in my cooler! Get out of there, you kids!"

"aw c'mon Mr Frampton, you're not gonna eat all that watermelon"

 

[Cryptid]

Fair enough, although I'm still not sure where the last 10 years went.

For the record, Teenage Riot is great to listen to in the car.

 

[Jerry Twig]

Yeah. Tommy Tiernan is a bit of a dick all right.

Certainly is, but he's right about Sonic Youth looking like pensioners dressed up as skateborders

 

[Goodbye]

nah, I disagree completely

I won't be complaining if I look like that in a mini when I'm 56!
