Groupies make playing in a band hell
Has anyone been in this situation and if so can you give me some guidance? At first this was a dream come true and I love playing in this band, but these groupies are persistent and they are making life difficult for me.

Unable to skip anti-piracy adverts on DVD
I don't know if this annoys anyone else, but when I buy a DVD I don't want to spend five minutes watching the anti-piracy advert or the film companies trailers, some go on for ages and it wont let you skip them or fast forward.

What has happened to British music?
Please explain to me how a British youngster can identify with music borne out of US ghettos that represents a US way of life? Where are all the great British rock bands and what happened to the British music scene?

Sky insurance nightmare for Mum
These big companies make me so angry! Quick to take our money but not that quick to sort a minor problem out! The 'nice' lady at Sky forgot to tell my mum that repairs are carried out by a sub-contractor!

Wasting money on Sky and Sky Plus
Sky Plus and regular Sky have both proved to be a waste of money and time as far as I am concerned. I started in happy, positive mood by installing a dish on top of my roof which is 5 stories up.

Why would you want to cancel Sky?
I recently subscribed to the Sky TV, Broadband, and Telephone service, after having been with Telewest and Virgin Media for the past couple of years. What a disaster! First of all, the TV service is mediocre at best.

People talking through a film at the cinema
Why is it that people are no longer capable of sitting in a cinema for the length of a movie and keeping their mouths shut? They think they're sitting in their own living room and proceed to talk all the way through the movie.

Sky problems driving me mad
I have been a customer of Sky for four years now and despite the fact that our bill mysteriously crept up 6 months ago, or the time they decided I had joined Sky talk plan, everything had gone smoothly so far.

Sky Movies a waste of money
Sky have now changed the format of their movie channels and in my opinion, Sky Movies can no longer be considered the same value for money that it once used to be. Anyone else fed up with all the repeats?

Sky Movies PIN number annoying
Every time I try to record a film on sky movies, I get the 'Enter your pin number' message at the bottom of the screen and the film doesn't come on until you enter this pin number.

Fed up with celebrity TV shows
I just can’t watch another so called celebrity show! Who are these people? They were all in the celebrity bracket once upon a time, but not now just a bunch of washed up jobbers who signed away their dignity.

Breaking news from the BBC
How long does news take to break? I ask this because whilst watching television, BBC Breakfast News came on as usual with some breaking news, then two hours later, exactly the same headlines!

Shakespeare a load of old tosh
I watched a performance of Romeo and Juliet who some say is a tragedy about two star struck lovers, but that is so far from the truth in my opinion. In fact it’s more like a stupid story about a serial killer

Radio stations lack variety
I have noticed for some time now that all the commercial radio stations that I can tune in to seem to have the same play lists. It really cracks me up when they advertise themselves as 'your local music variety station' or whatever.

No more Chris Evans radio show
Is anyone else really fed up with listening to Chris Evans on his Radio 2 show broadcast every day around teatime? What he did on Wednesday was so unforgivable we switched off the radio in disgust and haven't put it on since!

Sky customer service a joke
This is compelling gripe from a subscriber to Sky’s digital entertainment services. When attempting to cancel his subscription, this customer was met by delays and an extremely poor customer service experience.

Tasteless and offensive song lyrics
The song “My Humps” by Black Eyed Peas has some interesting lyrics that I wouldn’t like to try and explain to my youngster, yet this song is regularly played on the radio. Am I the only one that thinks this isn’t right?

Adverts on television and radio
I don’t have a TV and there is a very good reason for that. Apart from the mindless dribble that one has to endure and the cost of the TV License, there appears to be an endless stream of adverts to contend with!

Oscar awards a load of old rubbish
Oscar awards time already, when one of Hollywood's most exclusive clubs get it together and come up with the Oscar Nominations. It's nothing more than celebrity backslapping.

Guitar tab and lyrics sites to close
So the music industry is taking its war to song lyrics and guitar tab web sites are they? The MPA want the owners of web sites that publish lyrics, sheet music and guitar tabs to do some jail time apparently.

Bat Out Of Hell, the short version
One of my favourite songs from Meat Loaf’s Bat Out Of Hell album is the title track by the same name, but it really annoys me when I’m listening to it on the radio and the song gets cut short.

The radio DJ never plays my request
It’s the same old story on the radio and at the local nightspot. "Text us your requests" or "please keep the requests coming in and we’ll play your favourite song for you". They never do, especially if you request rock or heavy metal.

Reality TV shows aren't real life
Television has changed forever and not necessarily for the better in my opinion. My concern is with that certain type of show known as ‘Reality TV’.

TV pundits that think they know it all
John McCririck, the C4 horse racing pundit who stood up at Robin Cook's funeral and decided to lambaste the prime minister for not being there! Who does he think he is?

Forced to listen to your hip hop and rap
I find people who use a personal stereo on public transport, with it turned up loud extremely annoying. There's nothing worse than being forced to listen to someone else's taste in music.

Eminem, rap music and crotch grabbing
I have to admit that I do not understand or enjoy rap music and I have no idea why guys like Eminem and Will Smith have to continually grab their crotch when they sing.

I've never been to the Glastonbury festival, and it looks like I am probably never going to go now because of their policy on banning rock bands from playing.

Milton Keynes Bowl, what a rip off
I recently went to see ACDC and some other bands at the bowl in Milton Keynes and although I had a great day out there with my friends, the experience was somewhat tainted because I felt that we were being seriously ripped off.

BBC not worth the cost of a TV Licence
There used to be a time in the UK when a small handfull of TV channels were all that was available and the license fee was probably justified, but not any more!
