  If any further proof were needed that I should get out more, it is this: Whilst avoiding yesterday's main Pride event a few of us snuck into Stonewalls (on the old site of, um... Site Bar) on St. Martin's Lane. Therein we found succour in the form of alcohol in what is still an enjoyably gloomy establishment. The music was, almost universally, awful. Lots of R&B stuff which I can't stand. But then they started playing "Happenin' All Over Again", a song I love to pieces anyway which cheered me up no end. Unusually, they played it in its extended version, all 5'26" seconds of it. The sad thing is, I recognised it from the opening. Not so bad in itself, you might think, but the opening only consists of eight or so bars of drums. So effectively I recognised a song from the drum sounds and pattern alone. Dear God, I need help.
