Yes, and it does show the different reasons why what were once fans are no longer fans. This change happens for a variety of reasons.

 

Hey - forgot to tell you all - I was on The Chase last week! Didn't win - but got 5,000 in my cash-builder and got back to the final chase. We were beaten by Mark 'The Beast' Labett with just two seconds to go! Absolutely gutted! But had a great day and met Bradley Walsh as well so it wasn't all that bad! At least I can say I've been on the telly!

Ahh, extremely unlucky! I met the Beast at Stansted airport last year, didn't realise how tall he was

I don't think you get the British 'Chase' in the US Biggie! You do have your own version and the Chaser we faced was the same Chaser as in your show - Mark Labett.

 

If I'm ever over in the States Biggie - I'll give you my autograph!

 

On to buzzier news - I cannot wait until April 5th, 2016 when I get to see JEFF!!!!! He was absolutely fabulous on TRVP. Not sure if anyone saw it - but not only will Jeff be joined by Richard Tandy from the original ELO line-up - but Take That's musicians will be providing the back up for the shows. So glad - I have rather warm feelings for Milton McDonald!!!

 

 

Edit - oops! So excited there I put April LAST year!!!! Buffoon!

Oh lucky you, have a great time and happy new year.

The forum is number 6 this week, just spotted it in a lounge post just now.

Hi everyone, i hope you have all had a wonderful start to the New Year and that you all enjoyed the celebrations.

Is there any word on if the boys are attending the Brits, or possibly presenting?

Surprised that they didn't present anything.

 

I wonder when the Brits will give TT a life time achievement award. Possibly next year?

Probably the year they stop having double standards, Jay :D 2 years ago, TT's album wasn't eligible because it was released too late, but this year, Adele's album won 4 awards despite having been released around the same time as TT's. If that doesn't talk of hypocrisy and snobbery, I don't know what will.

The Brits puzzle me at the best of times. Take That often overlooked, but when you see some of the nominations it makes me question the whole thing. Olly Murs for example was yet again snubbed in the best male category, they do this every year to him. Snobbery and hypocrisy do indeed come in.

I don't have a problem with TT not being nominated this time around as I think their work wasn't strong enough and there were far worthier candidates. Perhaps These Days could have been given a nod but I'm not sure if singles are based on sales and air play and they may have missed out based on that criteria.

 

The Brits have always been lukewarm when it comes to TT, for reasons I can't fathom and I maintain they wouldn't have won Best Group in 2011 if it wasn't for Rob - who I think has something in the region of 17 Brits!!!

It's interesting that in recent times they've introduced a Brit for best video - ID must thank their lucky stars, but dropped best live act which TT would have been strong favourites to win.

 

I would be surprised if TT are given Life Time Achievement Award next year but it would be lovely if they were. As a British pop band they've produced some fantastic music and their shows are second to none - it would be great if this was recognized by the Brits committee.

 

I didn't watch the show this year although I caught the lengthy tribute to Bowie on line ( which I though struck a nice tone )and some of Adele who I wasn't overly impressed with.

The Brits have had a thing against TT although you're right - this year they've not really done anything to merit a nomination. I do remember it being particularly bad that on the year that they won best single for Patience (one of the most deserved Brit Award) the song didn't even feature on the The Brits CD that year! With regard to the best live act - I think The Brits dropped that quite a few years back now.

 

As far as Lifetime Achievement - given Jeff Lynne's tour this year - I can't see anyone more worthy of that award than him. In fact - he should have received it already.
