..im new here. Should really introduce myself. Im Ben i shout and play guitar in a band in the UK. I really like Shellac, Slint, Don Cab, the Youth etc.

IRONY ALERT: But really this conflicts with the corporate rock whore that is repressed inside me.

Anyway, hello.

Hello sir. From doon the road.

Hey, guy from Newcastle. A friend was saying that everyone in Newcastle hates Newcastle Brown Ale.
Is this true? I think it's kind of tasty.

And are you called Geordies because your dad's name was George?

Why eyes?

Broon ale is okay. everyone up here does really think anything of it. It's made here like.

And im not a geordie as i wasn't born on tyneside, i just live up here. Im from Darlington originally, about 30 miles south.

There is controversy over where Geordie comes from, but it's quite boring to get into.

Is it true that anything north of the river trent is north?

Anything north of Hampstead Heath is the "North" as far as I'm concerned.
