In the Pacific Northwest in the Grunge era there were two high-profile bands with "happy" in the title, SadHappy and BlackHappy, both particularly popular in my home state of Idaho. This information is strictly for your reference; it will not get any of us laid.

Ah, back from a quick kitchen chore and I missed the Cow/Slapp cuts. Possibly my favorite LP from their combined catalogs.

A couple of great shows from Japan on the Sheena stream, both by Mike Rogers, very much worth a listen

Webhamster Henry:

It's Complicated reference:

brilliantmaps.com...

If you live in Scotland you almost certainly pronounce it in a way that rhymes with “gone”, whereas if you live in Ireland you’re far more likely to pronounce it so it rhymes with “cone.” And in England and Wales, well let’s just say it’s complicated.
Avatar 🤯 Swag For Life Member 7:20pm
Stephen from Glasgow:

Definitely scone/gone here.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:21pm
Aitch:

Scon like gone down here in Oz.

Ken From Hyde Park:

Like Bon Scott or like Simon Le Bon?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:23pm
Webhamster Henry:

Pythonesque Canadian lumberjacks sing "scone" that rhymes with gone.

Like bone in Canada. And just as dry.
