And a recap, for internationally-blocked Annabel lovers...... For those unable to watch due to regional issues DL here. Can't host forever so share for other Frappers if possible.

Reflecting on the show - it seems very strange that the extended (65 minute) Friday version didn't include Annabel despite it being featured in the "live" (30 minute) Tuesday show. (I'm not complaining but normally I don't b…

It's a rough edit - for the geeky amongst you, my edits aren't on key frames so will be a bit clunky or even give some players grief. Plays fine in VLC, for example, though. This is just as a filler until we get some HD goodness to go with…

Could be! I went to accept a new user then realised they were still in the queue afterwards so I must have been a row above or below and let somebody else in! Doh!

I think I just clicked to allow a spambot in by mistake (it's early and my mouse-fu is weak!) but can't remember the random name to go and find it. We may therefore get a couple of spam posts but I'll chomp them (and it) once they ap…

I've got a not overly hi-res version ripped from iPlayer and will edit/convert/up later. If anybody has the HD, of course........... {looks around}

I love the fact that anybody going to the BBC iPlayer page to watch Jools sees this as the first thing:-

My boss stopped me right towards the end of the day and said "Oh, by the way, I watched that Jools Holland thing Tuesday night so I could see Goldfrapp - haunting stuff, yeah, really nice. Was that performing live?" When I told him yes, t…

Alison is a total fox
Only just saw this now as the pics were blocked at work. Obviously too foxy for the proxy server. Genius stuff, Ping. Properly so!

I guess it's partly perception & expectation. Every day I pop by and there are always Goldfrapp related threads being used and posted in alongside the (very) random OT ones. That's seven days a week with some sort of GF chatter going…

Wow, we got spammed
Just killed another 60. With hindsight, it seems it was definitely a good deecision in changing the registration style and something we should probably have done a week or two earlier. Given the ramp up in targetting this place it would have been …

I think on a mostly-loud show it stands out for being so quiet. As a one-shot TV attention grabber it's a good choice. Friday's other choice(s) will be interesting....

Ah, that felt nice. Just approved a couple of human beings with ears (probably) and a desire to join (definitely) Genuine thanks to them for making checking the "Applicants" admin section a bit more fun amongst the spam-attempting rest :…

Maybe I need to listen to Blakey boy a bit more but he sounded incredibly dull 8-| The latest album, "Overgrown", is a bit excellent.

I find it so curious and wonderful really, that people care so much about something that they get a little nervous about it. I think it's adorable. I too hope they knock it out of the park this time as well, I think they will. I've been …

I'll be trying to grab the whole thing from iPlayer anyway so will let you know how it goes. Failing that I'll nab whatever vids hit the Jools-Tube. On a side note, my boss at work has said he's intrigued with my fanboy-ness and will…

What are you listening to now?
South London Ordnance "He Do The Police In Different Voices" EP I believe those young people call this 'banging' - I call it bloomin' marvellous.

How far have you traveled to see Goldfrapp?
I'm not remotely on the radar compared to these wonderful/mad (delete as decided) people to fly around the world. More power to the 'Fly Me away' Frappers! My furthest was from Newcastle to Cornwall for the Eden Project show in the S…

Actually well up for this tonight. Adoring the new James Blake album from this year and he's on tonight too. Oh, and Chas & Dave, as mentioned Ahem. If it is Clay (maybe tonight or maybe for the other track of theirs on Friday's reco…

What Are You Eating?
Very, very healthy litle tubs of grains, pulses, beans, seeds and nuts from M&S. They're meant as a side thing to go with main courses but put two of them together and you get a gorrrrgeous salad bowl of sorts perfect for a work lunch. Yum…

Bliiiiiimey, that was a bit mental! @-) Just vetted and declined 456 registration attempts (!), absolutely none of which were real squishy human type things. Had to read through them all just to discover that none were real ones so I didn't r…

BB, not heard of anyone else with posting problems, so not sure. Does the 'post comment' button just fail to do anything? I wondered if I had upset someone. It feels like going back 20 years with the 1 GB Viglan I had. Coupled with pre bro…

What`s the last film you watched ?
Went to a screening of Rush last night (I don't think it's released here till tomorrow)..fantastic! I'm really not into racing (besides Danica Patrick) but was pleasantly surprised. Ron Howard really is a brilliant director. He can ma…

Jimmy Fallon TV show - 26/27 Sep 2013
Thanks for all the updating from the wrong side of the pond ;) Really sounds like it went off about as well as we/they could have hoped =D> Looking forward to getting home from work and giving that play (or three)

Rovo & System 7 Hinotori If their "Phoenix Rising" collaboration album is as good as this EP then I might have one of my top albums of the year knocking on the door. Who'd have thought ambient techno & Japanese prog would m…

Watched "Stoker" and "Side Effects" Enjoyed them both. Isn't the sound in Stoker amazing! It's almost like an extra character.
