Is it somebody's sole job?
Are they a DiSer?
Are there any other major brands whose stores play stuff like 65daysofstatic and Jeremy Warmsley?
Can I have this job?

From the Archive - The Weekly DiScussion: have too many festivals spoilt the summer?
i think that have
"topshop fm" for the whole country. whatshops do this too
which shops?
whatshops
Swap Shop?
whatshops
a geordie chain of dead cheap shit clothes. like aldi, for garments.
my mum loves it
what are they called?
oh yeah
and "I know your mum loves it"
she loves whatshops
i think the guy that owned it was called mr. watt or summit
Mr Summit?
thats his business partner
If you put topshop fm in google...
...the first result is Last.fm.
Nice.
i dunno
but i went into topshop the other day and they have a rubbish sale.
i think the problem with topshop is that most of it's clothes are "trends", like those pixie boots and 60s wool dresses and footless tights. in a few months those are going to look so ridiculous that nobody is going to buy them.
and i refuse to pay £7 for a plain white tshirt.
I got two t-shirts for a tenner
on saturday in there. go to the mens section and get ulta small
that's still pretty steep
when you can get a pack of 3 for £4 at primark or something.
But primark clothes always loose their shape
:(
primark clothes
always look good on the hanger but awful when you put it on.
when they actually fit properly they are great tho.
i got an ace jumper for £4 in Primark!
2 for tenner?
i thought that was the best value ever!
nah
1 for £25
always
Pfft! I went in and got a nice knee-length skirt for a fiver.
Footless toghts are pretty much the worst thing invented, though.
I like going into Topshop when it rains really bad and pretend to shop so I have something nice to listen to until it subsides.
in the chichester one
they were playing broken social scene and bonnie prince billy. me=confused!
It's a woman called
Seema Dickinson and she works for 'TSTM'.
Every fortnight, they accept submissions for new videos and are then chosen on their musical merit, rather than marketing budgets.
It's a good thing.
Years ago I remember seeing
The Stills on tele at the Topshop on Oxford Street. It prompted me to pop along the road to HMV to buy the album. Can't be bad, that
So if you can put together a good video on a nice song does it matter if you're signed?
Because I'd have thought a bunch of good bands on here could put a great video together, or DiSsers who could do a good video would be happy to have the chance to try, if it could be seen like that?
Doesn't matter at all, sir.
If you put something together, pass it on and I'll forward it to her.
would your song
need a video?
Amazing.
You hero.
It's the best thing ever.
Who chooses the music for McDonalds?
They have had the same CD since 1996
I heard
lcd soundsystem in burger king once
FACT
burtons has a jukebox
in there but there indine/ rock section is abit limted
..
My friend said they played The Veils. Weird.
Its great isn't it?
Its great isn't it?
Its great isn't it?
No.
No-one appreciates it really. They just wrestle each other for skinny jeans and ridiculus oversized handbags, ignorant of the music that wafts above their novelty-tight filled heads.
Nothing wrong with skinny jeans.
skinny jeans are good.
but isn't it weird when you see a girl on the street dressed ENTIRELY in topshop clothes. you can just tell that it's all topshop and it looks really really strange.
I often dress ENTIRELY in H&M
and I don't care whooo notices.
There is when
they make you look like a HEIFER.
I've heard
The Cooper Temple Clause - Damage
The Blood Brothers - Laser Life
and loads of other cool stuff in there.
Topman chooses the songs
Topwoman dances raunchily to his music choices
Topcat pisses on the curtains
On a vaguely similar point
The other day I heard the Juan Maclean in a local pub round my way. How did this happen?
james whale, of talksport
has just claimed to have invented the radio station in top shop, oxford circus
