Had a weird thing happen just now. Fell out with a mate of mine about 12 years ago. Fell out bad. His fault.
Patched it up after about a year or so and things have been grand since. We have never spoken about it.
He lives abroad, works for Russian oligarchs flying their private jets. (That adds nothing to this story, but it's cool so I included it) I rarely chat to him now one to one, every month or so.
Anyway, I hadn't thought about our falling out for years until earlier tonight, a few hours ago. Randomly came into my head.
He messaged me just there about something and we got chatting. He then randomly apologised for what happened 12 years ago.
Wtf? How mad is that?I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for thatComment

Few beverages on board diminishing the cringe giving me courage to share. Will likely delete in the morn.
Started writing this song a couple of years back during the marriage ref. Played the work in progress on acoustic to my cousin and his mate one night at a jam session. My cousin is a guitarist, his mate an amateur producer.
They really liked it, although we were all pretty stoned. We decided to record it over a couple of sessions. Vocals and chord progressions are mine, I think I added a small bit of guitar but mostly that's my cousin and the percussion and synth are his mate.
It's unfinished and the '2nd verse' is just a loop of the first verse. Never got around to finishing it.
Would love honest feedback

Laz, I love your songwriting style, short punchy rhyming couplets. This is a song I could very easily imagine being sung by someone like jermain clement (flight of the chonchords).Originally posted by Lazare View Post
It's a clever idea and i really like the lyrics.
Maybe more scenarios to set different examples on the opening of each verse and use the setting to shape the verse.
World peace, perfect teeth
No fears, robot gondoliers
That kind of irreverent stuff ya know?
Also, I'm not sure but if you wrote this during the marriage ref it's shaping your 'earnestness' during the song? I don't think it needs the imploring tone....

Paging AJ....
So i spent the last 15 mins trying and failing to figure out the Euro 2020 qualifiers but gave up.
Cliffs on what we have to do?Comment

Finish top two in the group is really the only option. We were bottom in the Nations League and were (I think) 2nd worse out of all the teams that came bottom so for us to go through via a qualifier is too remote to even consider it as an option.Originally posted by Dice75 View Post

Finish Top 2 in the group = qualification.Originally posted by Dice75 View Post
Failing that we will likely go into a 4 team playoff for 1 place.Comment
-
Assuming we don't finish Top 2 in the group, to get a playoff spot we would look at the following list of Nations Cup rankings.
1. Bosnia
2. Ukraine
3. Denmark
4. Sweden
5. Russia
6. Austria
7. Wales
8. Czech Rep
9. Slovakia
10 Turkey
11. Republic of Ireland
12. Northern Ireland
To get to a 4 team play-off we would need 7 of the teams ranked above us to qualify automatically and thus they don't need to use their playoff spot. It probably will happen, some good teams in there.
But it's worth pointing out that the playoffs aren't home and away like before, the higher ranked teams will have home advantage in a one-off tie in the semi-final of the 4-team playoff. Coin-toss for the final.Comment
-
With our low Nations League ranking there is also a possibility that we could be bumped up to a harder play-off against teams like Italy, Spain and Croatia if they happen to fail to qualify.
I usually lose my audience when I start to explain the technicalities of this though.
But basically the playoff option could be very tricky this time. Best to finish Top 2 in the group.Comment
