I'm not sure if I'm just getting rosey eyed with nostalgia but I just had a conversation with a work mate and we came to the above conclusion.

The music, the football, the general vibe etc  Brilliant days.

yep agree ... promotion to the Premier ... Britpop era ... Euro 96 ... my fave era so far .. nougties have been poor .. soapy tit wank

Was pretty good actually 93-97. Certainly seemed sunnier!

Listen to y'all. The 90's ended, you got a little bit older - deal with it :D

World Cup 98,Sun, Women and B*Witched my favourite year. I miss it.

1998 was my favourite year as a teen - went to Germany and beat the Germans 2-1 in a football match, it was amazing... should probably take it off my C.V. now though.

I do think you're on to something there Rich, but you can't help looking back and thinking flip me, those were great days.

1990 was the year.

And to force the point home, Blur are back. My lord, i'm excited.

Think 1998-1999 was my favourite part of the nineties. Just lots of cool stuff happened in that time.

Mid 90's is too hot for me, about 75° is about right

Indeed. Very very ace.

1996 was my fav year of the nineties

1991. Hello Mr. MDMA, nice to meet you  :)

Someone on MSN Messenger asked whether I wanted to buy some MDMA today, true story.

Euro 96 Took over the Shaw ridge tavern, watched every game there and started loads of the songs in the bar. Got free drinks for most of that summer. It was only 80p a pint and £1 a bottle anyway.

The mini riot after the Germany game was a laugh, made radio1 too :D


No shit, are Blur back???   :nod: My first concert was there Parklife tour 93,  i think?

The mid 90's rocked:

The football was all good, the weather was wicked, I loved the music, job was good, THAT goal by gazza,...............

It'll come good again.

I've never seen them, and have been hoping for a reunion for years!

I like Daman Albarn.

I like the Gorillaz and I didn't know for ages that it was him.

And song 2.... CLASSIC mid 90's tune.

Early nineties - Guru Josh....
Town on the up...
Seeing Placebo....in 95
Shagging for fun.......


Making love was just for fun,
But when i pick up the telephone,
Nobody s home.......

I loved the 90's

Town's rise to the Premiership
Ocean Colour Scene at Stirling Castle
Live Forever by Oasis
discovering the wonder of the female form
discovering the wonder of alcohol

I can't remember much of the 90s.

I like to refer to 93 - 96 as my "lost years"

:)

Turns out i had access to a pre-sale today... all done!

I remember:

Moshing to this tune in Level 3, just an excuse to be a bully really:

And of course:

 BR coincidently just wacked on a bit of Pulp, in honour of this thread.

 Cocaine Socialism...E's and Whizz...Disco 2000 and of course Common People.

 The 90's were a blissed out happy time in the Smeeton household....

The 90's where a time when everybody seemed to be popping pills a plenty Reg, with a bag of coke as a chaser... happy times. What has changed? does the music not compliment the 'drug' culture anymore?

Good thread janaage as I don't think that many would disagree that the mid 90's where very very good.

Here's another tune.

the early to mid nineties were fucking mental if you were into the rave scene.the birth of dnb and fucking awesome parties all over the place.good times

Did I dream this or was there a programme called Kabaddi on Channel 4 in the nineties?

Kabbadi was fucking class, indians holding their breath in an area with lines made from rice, playing tag.  Superb.

Euro 96 was fantastic, pissed up pretty much every night for a month, even though Scotland went out it was still a great vibe. 

Scotland were at Euro 96? Surely you have made a grave error!!

Tell that to the Dutch and Swiss, if england could learn to keep effin clean sheets we'd have gone through*!



*Please note Alistair McCoist should take most of the blame he missed countless sitters v Switzerland and then proceeded to score a screamer!!  I would have preferred two tap ins, the hun bastard!

At 4-0 up against the Dutch I think we were quite entitled to take our foot off the gas a touch!

wankers!  ;-)


(we only had ourselves to blame)

The music was so ace! there was some shit in there aswell, for example.....I give yyou Techohead!!
