It's gratuitous Go-Betweens week here on FOF - so please pick your favourite lady drummer.
Please add anyone I missed...

And - quite amazingly - I've just noticed I missed off Lindy Morrison, who was the whole point of the poll!
Looks like it's suicide again for me...

I would also question this spelling "Kate Shellenbach," and the eroneous comma? :lol:

Anyways, are we basing this on "who is foxy" or "who is talented"?

Legendary, unrecorded[but real], Cramps first drummer: Pam BaLam

Katrin of the Ex

Pedant!
At least I can spell "erroneous', though...


PS Sorry about that rogue comma.

Many apologies over my erroneous spelling of the word eroneous.

I'm tempted to go with duckpins "Pam BaLam", that is certainly the best drummers name. Alas, good old Mo Tucker will have to get the nod... erm, not on the foxy front to be honest though.

Yes. This is of course the correct answer. Out of those in the poll I voted for Rachel Trachtenburg just cos it was nice to se her in there.

I'm not too bothered about the band, they sound a bit too much like everyone else for my liking, but Katie from Forward Russia is an amazing drummer - check out those tippy-tappy rimshots all over their last single Breaking Standing.

From The Flintstones? :wacko:

Yes, purly based on being foxy.

June Kingston i say.

Moritaka Chisato, I say. Good actress also.

:lol:


I was looking through the list going 'er, hang on a minute..'

From the list, my love of Sign 'O' the Times and Lovesexy makes me vote for Selia E.



But I would have gone for Lindy. Shame on you elvischomsky, shame on you.

Elvis is dead - for shame...

PS "Selia"???
To quote Barney Albrecht; "Everyone makes mistakes... even me."

And you have the chutzpah to accuse others of pedantry. :angry:



:lol:

Sorry, I meant Sheila Albrecht.
Thanks for picking me up on that... :whistle:

'Every second counts when I am with you/I think you are a pig/You should be in a zoo'.


How that young man never won the Forward Prize for Poetry is completely beyond me.

"I feel so extraordinary..."
The best/worst opening line of a song ever?

The best. :thumbsup:

And I admit that even though I know it's silly


The chances are we've gone too far/You took my time and you took my money/Now I fear you've left me standing/In a world that's so demanding


Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.

Yes, odd that it's so moving.
Even lines like this;
"When I was a very small boy,
Very small boys talked to me."


:cry2: :cry2:

Bloody hell. You've got me at it now.


That's the price that we all pay/Our valued destiny comes to nothing


:cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2:

"I can't tell you where we're going
I guess there was just no way of knowing..."

It's no good, I can't go on...

Oh, what the heck, let's have a good old cry.

I want my Mummy.

:D

Mo Tucker! :beer:

Heh heh.
EC claim to spurious fame - part 96.
I used to work as a vault's clerk at BBC News, I used to bunk off every Wednesday, cause they still fillumed Top Of The Pops at TV Centre.
Saw New Order soundchecking True Faith, just me and two soundmen.
Be jealous!

I've slept on Hooky and CA's floor. :nahnah:

Were they playing True Faith?

Er, no.


You've set me off again, you brut.


:cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2: :cry2:

Look, I'm sorry! Okay?

Katrin Ex, indeed. Would add Giovanna Pizzorno of Tav Falco's Panther Burns.
Voted Mo Tucker.

You also missed Janet Weiss of Sleater-Kinney/Quasi fame who played the drums on "The Friends of Rachel Worth". :o

Deliberately, she also owes me money. :angry:

Yoshimi from the Boredoms rocks some.

You boys need a dose of Arthur Rimbaud. :grrr:

:o











You and yer posh, ponsey poetry. Ain't you read my signature. :huh:

Yes preferably the one he picked up while fighting with Verlaine :D

One reason for listening to poets but you already know that ;)

You can (almost) sing this to the tune of True Faith!

"Comme je descendais des Fleuves impassibles,
Je ne me sentis plus guidé par les haleurs..."
