-
2020-11-28 at 8:55 AM UTCOne day after Pearl Harbor's bombing 79th anniversary on December 8th 2020. John Lennon will have been dead exactly 40 years.
He was 40 years old when he died and it's been 40 years ago making him 80 if he were alive today.
back to back the years he was one this planet is the same as he was when he died 4 decades ago. and yes, I was 15 years old and watching TV when the breaking news busted into programming. Fucking Mark Chapmin you piece of fucking shit fuck. -

And the best for last Cilla Black. Why are scousers cursed with brilliance?
is this Manchester area were speaking of or Liverpool? Im guessing the latter.
Isn't one about 100 miles or so north of the other?
so many bands from the 60s-90s came out of that area and era. then Rap music became popular in the UK and violence (though always existed there) probably trippled. everyone wanna be GANGSTA -

34 miles between each city m8. Manchester has more of a Rap scene tbh. Liverpool has always maintained a rock/ indie/ pop culture. -

Liverpool, and it's about 30 miles. Liverpool never had a big rap scene when I lived there, but that was almost 20 years ago. It has and still does have a huge club/dance scene as well as rock and indie.
Liverpool is very violent but I think it has nothing to do with rap and more to do with being Europe's biggest gateway city for illegal firearms and a fair amount of drugs too.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

2020-11-28 at 8:51 PM UTCAt approximately 5:00 p.m. on 8 December 1980, Lennon autographed a copy of Double Fantasy for fan Mark David Chapman before leaving The Dakota with Ono for a recording session at the Record Plant. After the session, Lennon and Ono returned to their Manhattan apartment in a limousine at around 10:50 p.m. EST. They exited the vehicle and walked through the archway of the building when Chapman shot Lennon twice in the back and twice in the shoulder at close range. Lennon was rushed in a police cruiser to the emergency room of Roosevelt Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival at 11:00 p.m.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

I was watching Muse channel (or the show was called muse) and they had lots of good new indie rock that reminded me of new stuff in the 80s. like stuff you wouldn't remember unless you heard it because they were probably college students that didn't set out to be musicians. so one or two albums and you never heard from them again.
Manchester during the 70s and 80s was great. The Fall (RIP Mark E Smith), Chameleons UK, Joy Division/New Order, The Obligatory The Smiths, not sure of The Cure was from there, I think Talk Talk (RIP Mark Hollis) was from there, Oasis, Simply Red.. a bunch of others. I like a Band called "Crispy Ambulance" they have an interesting dark sound.

check him from the bookstore, rhyme this yuppie yoko-select:
<salinger hiply loathes those radred drugsound movers> dakota-bound with a push—but he goes way downstreet pushing quad & a thump!
well enough, change due—brylcreem on the rocks jives us on the drop & we roll gusting, chrysler-borne, tremolo-on-the-rests from nyc to bel air for a well-meaning trickle-down deking. pick up jofo’s low wave radio slave on the get; duran duran tickets & a taxi, says he’ll wash up.
& the hubris of this fucking freak resuscitates a nation’s chastity on tv, astonishing billions.
