DiScuss: could this be the end for Idlewild? Which show are you going to? Did you form a band because of Idlewild? Would you be listening to the music you listen to today if it wasn't for Roddy name checking little known American acts? Ditto authors and philosophers? How many times have you seen them? Think I've seen them thirty times, should I be embarrassed about this?
