I am grateful to Nic for this forum over the years. I didn't start posting until around '05 as I didn't have the internet - so I'd lurk whilst at work. Nonetheless that's 20+ years of NOOL for me and that's pretty good.
I'm also a little bit sad that Nic hasn't responded to any PM's. But of course that's Nic's choice and I wish him well for the future.
FWIW, I did manage to contact Nic on FB back in the spring to let him know that someone (not me) was showing an interest in "the keys", and he said he would respond to them. But I'm not aware of anything since.
We know that Bernard has talked about being ready to go and make more music and that he intimated that it was down to others that it hadn't started yet.
If there is to be one more "oeuvre" from the mighty NO, it would be nice to still have the forum. Indeed it would be nice if someone from NO would chuck a few quid at the thing. They could easily afford to, i imagine.
Thanks for the memories NOOL.
Now then...
A YouTuber put together an edit of the full length vocal mix of Here To Stay and the Extended instrumental from Retro Disc 3, and I think he did a good job.
I always felt that the original full length wasn't as long or as complete as it could have been.
The forum may not be here to stay, but the music of NO always will be for me [*touches heart*]. Feel free to puke if you're a "football hooligan" fan, or shed a tear if you're a "spotty student" fan.
