Mark Kermode - Mark goes to Memphis
« on: August 19, 2012, 10:45:23 AM »
Did anyone catch this?

Pretty good - the undoubted highlight being when they were in Sun Studios and just about to start recording. Kermode talks about all the pictures of the legendary names round the studio and then says:

"everywhere you look there is something to be intimidated by but what I have to do now is put a cover over this picture of Bono, because I'm not playing with Bono on the wall. I'm not spending two evenings with a bloke in a stupid hat and sunglasses and a mullet haircut looking at me"

Genius.
I think I hate being indecisive.

Sounds good.  I'll try to have a listen when the weather cools off enough to make headphones bearable!

not keen on Kermode, his music is equally as bad as his critical analysis of films, I find him far more annoying than even Bono.

His review of the last Pirates if the Caribbean film was an utter classic

His Sex and the City 2 rant was pretty spectacular:

Made even more brilliant by him saying he wasn't going to rant.
