Nope. But then I doubt there's really that many ways to rank her albums.

In fairness, you and I have very different opinions on what constitutes a great show.

In fairness, I've seen about 1,000 more gigs in my lifetime than you have, so I have a fairly good idea of what constitutes an entertaining show and what constitutes rot.

Sadly you seem to have a habit of commenting - or should i say criticising - on something you have not actually seen or heard.

You can easily slag Kylie off for her live shows cos you have been to many. I however could not because I haven't.

And as I'm doubting you were at the Janet jackson tour of 1990/1991, I don't think you can question my opinion with any seriousness.

5. All For You 7/10

Oh fuck off! Just because you'd attend the opening of an envelope doesn't mean you're any more qualified to judge a show than I am. I wasn't getting at you. I was merely stating that we very often don't agree on what makes a good show.

Don't be so bloody defensive.

Firstly, I don;t go the opening of an envelope - for many years it was both my job and my pleasure to review gigs and concerts for newspapers i worked for.

Secondly, it's hard not to be defensive with someone who canot resist getting a sly dig in at every available opportunity when they believe their only opinion to be the one worth listening to.

I think it's fairly obvious that that *wasn't* a dig. I merely stated that we disagree. How on earth is that a "dig"?

Funny, I seem to recall you using that defence when it comes to films....

How ironic.

It simply wasn't necessary to respond to my post with that. SImple as that. You turned it personal with another of your snipes.

Oh FOR FUCK SAKE.

How on EARTH was saying that we generally disagree a "personal snipe"? Reel your neck in. You've gone right overboard this time.

Are you on the blob or something?

Going overboard would require me to lose my rag, and you don't warrant that.

I said her show was briliant and you chose to point out we have differing opinions on that, thus questioning my opinion without any evidence to the contrary.

Pointless. You are itching for an argument and you ain't getting one.

FIN.

How on God's good earth was me stating that we disagree "questioning your opinion"?
And what are you going on about "evidence" for? What does "evidence" have to do with an opinion?

You're making absolutely no sense whatsoever. It'd be amusing if it wasn't so irritating. You're making such a fool of yourself in here this past week. It's not all about you. Please *try* to get a grip.

I think you'll find you were the one who stormed red faced out of the Sharking thread earlier in the week and laughed at by the majority of people who disagreed with both your nonsensical verbal rampage and personal insults.

And if you're talking about making a fool out of yourself, to quote Madonna, 'Just Look In The Mirror baby'.

if you can't laugh at yourself, you're missing the biggest joke in here.
