Yup. I think this forum needs some new categories soonish, maybe in a week or so.

I like vBulletin forums but I think phpBB you can customize a lot too. Would be cool to have some shiny new features. :)

I'm happy to listen to and act on everyone's suggestions for new boards/categories

I think you have to pay to use vBulletin boards though don't you? (for a license). phpbb boards are free. I may be wrong though.

What features do people want? I'll open up a new thread

oooooh.... I think Joe's 'Dr. Sexy' is superb. Adam's 'Sexy Robots' is great, as well.

Adam's 'Tiny Mobile Speakers' is an absolute classic. I hilariously have it as a ringtone on my phone.

Also, Adam's 'Too Beautiful for a Cranky Old Bag Like Me' also ranks high. I like the edgy subject matter combined with the funky salsa beat.

That's one of my favourites. Love Adam's Nutty room song and Joe's Dr Sexy. Garth's hayfever song is utterly brilliant too. 'There's a constant stream... of liquid greeeeeen'

I really like All Night Garage by Joe and The Hours by Adam but, to be fair, there have be loads of good ones.
Its a shame that they dont plan on releasing Vol.2 anytime soon. I think they mentioned they were looking into a way of making them all available but not sure what that would entail.
I wonder how many copies of Vol.1 they sold :geek:
I wonder if the limited hard copies have any resale value on ebay - not that I would sell it of course :shock:

Didn't they top the iTunes comedy chart at one point though? That must take more than 500 sales.

The problem they've got with volume 2 is all the copyright stuff - Radiohead, Kim Wilde, Antiques Roadshow, Baz Luhrman's Australia... - never get it all cleared.
