Well I have been working there for 4 years and when I am on shift I control the music, (not the Doctors, but me!!). Well as any good Dels fan would do in my position I play mostly Dels tapes, and recently we purchased a CD player so even more variety of Dels songs. Everyone has there opinion on the Dels and I have converted a few Consultants into the Dels. However there is one nurse who always complains about the sound level of the songs and always moans at me to turn the Dels down!! After today's list we were tidying up and I stuck a compilation tape on which starts with Fastball's "The Way", This nurse walked over to the tape deck and turned the volume up and started humming along to the song!!!. I asked her, "you have only heard that song once or twice, but you turn the volume up and start singing along with, Why do you never do that with the Dels songs??" The Reply was "But this song is BOUNCY?????" So at the end of this long moan it has now been decided the Dels aren't bouncy enough!!!! If only I could capture the essence of Kiss This Thing live especially when it is the closing song of a gig, then she would see how Bouncy the Dels are!! (As I gloriously witnessed at London Astoria from lofted position). Any way on that line what is OV'ers favourite live song they have ever seen?? Just one song allowed ChrisF Bouncingly happy with the Dels ------------------------------ End of oppositeview-digest V2 #80 *********************************
