new sitcom about the recording of "showtime" (wasn't that the one with lightning man on it?) in which bon and douglas wrangle each week with a passive-aggressive producer and an openly hostile sound engineer who tells nitzer ebb "you fucking norwegian jazz bands, i don't even care if you're swiss" and "you should warn people that this track is longer than 3 minutes"
@URINE the synthesisers had been on for hours and were starting to heat up the small recording studio. in the middle of the argument douglas takes his tshirt off and throws it to the floor. "3 minutes!?" he barks at the engineer. the engineer is about to deliver an abrupt response, but hesitates as he notices douglas' wide, defined torso. he reaches for another cigarette.

Bug report: I refreshed so your Javascript could work and the song stopped playing.

I kept clicking the Post button cos nothing was happening. Grey that shit out post click or something. And fix your AJAXes. Bring back the old _ralph.

@tjehan if you're lucky you might be able to play this http://sverigesradio.se/sida/artikel.aspx?programid=2195&artikel=5142681 it's one and a half hour of Nik Bärtsch (subtract 5mins total of swedish talking). Perfect work music.

@jwheare and it does say how long it is in the player bar. Or it should do. (9:12)
jwheare
Yeah *after* you click play. Too late by then. Sucked in by the esoteric click track.

@jwheare your argument is breaking apart.
jwheare
It's not so much of an argument as a public health warning.
