Dan McAvinchey: Borislav, looking back, when did you first get interested in guitar, and how did you learn and progress as a player? Borislav Mitic: I started to get into rock music and guitar at the age of 11. Although I grew up in the era of players like Yngwie, Satriani and Vai I approached the instrument almost as if I was coming from the '70s. So first I learned blues and classic rock stuff like...

Legendary Cream drummer (and equally legendary old grump) Ginger Baker says playing with Gary Moore “finished rock’n’roll for me”. In an interview in the latest issue of Classic Rock , Baker calls Moore “the Pampered Pompadour Of Pop”, reckons his playing is “contrived” and says he once recommended that the six-stringer should see a psychiatrist. Baker...

ObamaCare is a disaster. Cash-for-Clunkers has become an embarrassing boondoggle. Cap-and-Trade is flailing in the wind. Amnesty is a pipedream. Obama is plummeting in the polls. And even the lovesick media is starting to figure out that this guy is an empty suit. The thrill is gone, baby. The thrill is gone. Here’s B.B. King and Gary [...]

Saw this over at Kliph's CLASSIC TELEVISION SHOWBIZ ( http://classicshowbiz.blogspot.com/2010/01/to-tell-truth-with-host-peggy-cass-1970.html ) this morning and just had to share. This clip from a 1970 episode of TO TELL THE TRUTH is interesting on several levels. First of all, the guest is Tony Goodstone who compiled the seminal collection of pulp fiction, THE PULPS (seen here) which was, for many...

Despite some frost, there should be no problems with today´s 3 jumps meetings, though the ground is certain to be very soft at all of them. Newbury has the best card and once again it seems that Paul Nicholls and Nicky Henderson will dominate proceedings. They go head to head in the opening novice hurdle at 14.30 CET, with French import Robinson Collonges (Nicholls/ Ruby Walsh) and easy Sandown...

today´s British action is very low level compared to yesterday, or to the Irish racing this afternoon. Philip Hobbs and Richard Johnson can take the beginners chase at 15.40 CET at Market Rasen with Bluesun, the form of whose third place last time at Exeter has been well boosted since. Also here, last time-out-winner Toulouse Express (Bob Johnson/ Paul Callaghan) can follow up in the handicap...

Stieg Larsson's: Millenium Trilogy has now been completely read and digested. How to end such an amazing piece of fiction would have been difficult but essential; but Stieg was obviously happy with it and it seems to be the right one. Apparently he gave the publisher a 4th manuscript and synopsis for another 6 books. Presumably we will get the 4th at some point, but it won't be another The Girl Who...
