I did threaten this. Making you listen to my music. Well you don't have to. I can't make you.
Against my better judgement, here's Hoppy Head.
Apart from the title, it has absolutely nothing to do with beer. Not much to do with music, either.

I don't have any pills to drop so can't judge whether that's dance-able to. It sounds ok to the un-mashed ear though!
If you think writing about beer sucks up time, try making music. 5 minutes of music took about two or three hundred hours of work. I don't have the time. Which is why I disconnected all my music-making equipment, including the synthsiser in front of me on which I have 30 cm pile of notes, magazines, books, festival programmes.
Ah, the days when I had time to go clubbing. Twelve hours dancing I once managed - Leftfields debut gig at the Paradiso followed by an afterparty at the Silo. The Silo was 100 times crazier than anywhere else I've ever been. What a deathtrap. At the back was a dock with no barrier and a 4 metre drop into the Ij. And the dirtiest toilets I've ever seen. I was in Prague in the communist days, so I've seen plenty of filthy bogs. These were in a different class. I couldn't ever post even 5% of the truth about the Silo. Ask me about it, next time we meet.
Excellent. Ron the caner. Yes we will need to discuss this when I come over to lash it up in Amsterdam.
And remember to ask me what my nickname was in those days.
Happy times.
Not my kind of thing Ron, so I couldn't possibly comment. That's not a negative comment, just an admission of lack of knowledge.
