Shepherd's Bush Welcomes The Wedding Present (Live) - Wedding Present (The)

Wedding Present's most consistent album

Advantages: No weak tracks, best way to end an album
Disadvantages: It's over too quickly!

This 1996 effort is the last album released under the Wedding Present name before Dave Gedge put the band on hiatus for 8 years and concentrated on his Cinerama project. In my opinion it is one of the high points of this band's discography. The album starts off with 2 short, sharp, spiky but still tuneful efforts in Venus and Real Thing. A great way to start an album and really get your attention. The pace slows a little with the next song Dream World, it starts slowly for the first couple of minutes then veers between fast and slow until it ends. The female backing vocals really enhance this song. Track 4 is the lead off single 2,3,go, not an obvious single, especially with the album version's extended outro (featuring a very old radio advert for Grundig buried deep in the mix). From a quiet outro to a BIG intro to Snake Eyes ...

Review of Saturnalia - Wedding Present (The)

Wedding present

Advantages: Very, very simple to use
Disadvantages: Hate cleaning the filter!!

Of all the various lovely wedding presents we received this has got to be one of the best, a simple, easy to use coffee machine. NOT one of these new-fangled 101gadgets that you never use jobs. Just quick, easy and simple. Add the coffee (I find that 3/4 scoops of filter is enough for 10 cups), add the cold water and press the on button. In about 5-8 minutes coffee ready made. It's great for when guests descend upon you at a moments notice (your kettle will thank you for it). Also you don't have to make 10 cups of coffee everytime. Just fill the water to the desired level for the number of cups you want and add less coffee (say 1/2 scoop for two cups). There's even a fancy dial on top to adjust the strength of the coffee if you want to get all technical! I can't really comment on the price as it was given as a present but I ...

Review of Morphy Richards 47001 CAFE RICO

Wedding Bore!

Advantages: Some funny bits
Disadvantages: Poor Story , funny bits are limited

When I first saw Wedding Daze advertising on the television , I thought it was another American Pie film , because it starred Jason Biggs. I then went around telling my friends that I was excited about seeing the new American Pie film , only to be told it wasn't. I never did go to the cinema to see it , but put the film down on my "To buy Dvds" list , but again I didn't get it. So the other week , when I'd ran out of dvds to watch I went and had a look through my sisters dvd collection , and saw sitting there on the shelf ; Wedding Daze. I picked the dvd up and put it on to watch. First of all , let me give you a bit of information about the movie. Wedding Daze was released in the cinemas in 2006. The film stars Jason Biggs (American Pie's Jim) and Isla Fisher ( Borat's real life wife!). The film was distributed by Green Street ...
