They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery and bugger me if Palmer central doesn’t bear an uncanny resemblance to this web site. I’m still aesthetically challenged according to the content free Mr Palmer, but at least I’m XHTML compliant, unlike some people I can mention. That makes me at least one-nil on the …

I don’t care how good the music is, I want to go and see Atomic Bitchwax on their upcoming tour. How can a band with a name that good be anything but top class?
Naming Names
