What gigs do you wish you had gone to? It might be gig that you could have gone to, but couldn't be arsed, or it could be a gig that requires a time machine.

In this episode, Andrew is joined once again by David Jago as they discuss the raw brutality of Metallica, the weirdness of Mr Bungle and the groove of the Newport Jazz Festival. Buckle in; things are gonna get weird. In a good way. Or Not. Why are you still reading this?

Summer lovin': happened so fast. It was a bit disappointing that it took longer to clean up the mess.

In the last podcast to feature Sam until August (unless something strange happens), SAmdrew talk about the hot music of the summer: that's right, shit that went down years ago, but they missed out. Because they were ignorant, entitled, cis-gendered white men, too busy concentrating on being cis-gendered to let their hair down and just enjoy themselves.

They talk about missing out on the Beastie Boys, At the Drive-In, and B*witched, amongst others.

Remember what Kurt Cobain sang: just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you.

And, if summer music is about anything, it's about missing out on what's genuinely fun for whatever shit is playing festivals.

Lesson is: music isn't want it used to be. We could've been there, we knew about it. But we weren't there. Because being there isn't cool, but it was too obvious.

100 volunteers, 40 production crew, one town. A ton of fun!

Gonzo review of day one of Brighten the Corners in Ipswich

They say write what you know, and many, many, many musicians have just done that. Obscure lyrics about mainlining Anusol, and tell-it-like-it-is ones about that weird smell at the back of the tour bus that was there before you bought it. It's all there, and it's all wonderful.

Sam is back, so join him as he joins Andrew as they fail to check anything they say and barely talk about the music they've decided to talk about. This week's sponsor's include Shell Oil, Camel Cigarettes and the HMR Treasury.

Did we talk about how awful the Offspring are these days or last week? Is Ed Sheeran still playing for them? The usual amounts of toilet humour and ponderings what embracing European orchestral traditions suggest in black metal. Oh, and Metallica. Yes. They sponsor us this week, as well. (Actually? Not actually).
