The Darkness — overrated. OK, perhaps not an anagram but true nonetheless. I'm beginning to doubt the quality of my hearing. Have too many gigs damaged my eardrums, leaving me incapable of hearing the true greatness of these '70s wannabes? I doubt it.

Hilarious, but anyone know who it's by? Is it Deep? Rhimes ■ How could Damon Albarn get huffy when he was interviewed about Blur v Oasis in Live Forever? Is he so deluded he thought a Britpop film wasn't going to broach it? More nostalgia — he IS Kevin The Teenager.

Noel needs to get over the fact that Oasis were the biggest band in the UK — not the world. The film was made too soon and had little sense of narrative. It just moved along for a while then ended. Ian Larsen ■ Wasn't Damon Albarn profound plucking his ukeleli in Live Forever? Er, no, he resembled a Britpop George Formby. That's Song 2 for you. "Mr Wu hoo! When he feels heavy metal."

It was just good music, and occasionally more people "get" something than they usually do. I was at The Stone RosesW Spike Island gig that opened the film. They had a reputation for rubbish gigs, and that was another one. I was 17 and the day was long and frustrating yet ultimately memorable. But more memorable was the Manics gig I went to a fortnight earlier. Reallyisme ——————————————————————————————————6/10— Sounds' index 160 Jill Speedway 152 R U a text Flirt?

When The White Stripes pulled out, it left only Metallica, SOAD and the refreshing Darkness as the good bands. I won't go to V on principle, as they seem to put whatever is pop flavour of the month on the bill. This just leaves Glasto, which sold out in 30 seconds flat. Nick The Mane Void: Wi thought Carting looked rank too, until we got there — and saw a stack of largely unknown bands.
