Back in the late ‘90s when David Gray put pen to paper on the song Babylon, he probably didn't intend for the lines ‘Let go your heart / Let go your head' to be taken quite as literally as many modern-day revelers now seem to. Indeed, such was the overly rowdy atmosphere at Gray's recent Dublin show that the musician felt the need to take to social media to politely scold them. He told followers “I don't think I've ever heard the audience as, as rowdy as that, and bit outta control in a way”. Today on this episode of The Indo Daily, two “culture snobs” chat with Tabitha Monahan about declining public standards at concerts, the cinema, the theatre - just about anywhere.

A national emergency (not really) provokes a bonus NO ENCORE (yes, really) as Dave Hanratty attempts to wrap his head around the great Oasis ticketing scandal of 2024. What a difference a week and some last-minute dynamic pricing make, eh? Last Saturday has been and gone, and so too have the hopes and dreams of many crushed Britpop fans. As for those who found their way to the top of a very long queue? Well, they either walked away in protest at a sudden colossal spike in ticket prices, or they're going to be budgeting hard for the next month to come. Call it dynamic pricing, call it an 'in demand' ticket, call it the price of doing ruthless business, call it plain old greed - whatever the phrasing, Liam and Noel Gallagher find themselves counting an awful lot of cash as many disgruntled fans suffer the cost. On this episode, Dave is joined by Jim Carroll, RTÉ Brainstorm editor and former (well, mostly) outspoken music journalist of renown, to examine the questionable mechanics of the Mancunian money machine.

A change of pace this week as we introduce our new stream of Patreon-exclusive bonus content with a feature-length free sample. Joining the already-established Album Club is the NO ENCORE Film Club, in which Dave Hanratty and ex-Le Galaxie hitman Michael Pope convene to discuss the plot mechanics, onscreen standout performances, offscreen production anecdotes, and overall pop culture legacy of a chosen film. Unlike the currently-on-hiatus NO POPCORN, there does not need to be a music-related connection to the motion picture in question, so it's a free-for-all of cinematic offerings - both good and bad - that take our fancy. And so the boys kick things off in boisterous cyberpunk style with 1995 box office bomb turned cult favourite - HACKERS. A chilling vision of things to come, or a crazy swing-and-miss attempt to capture sexy technological zeitgeist and future all at once? Dave and Michael run through the plot, soundtrack, casting, and general notoriety of a film that confounded critics yet created a die-hard community that persists to this day. The first episode of Film Club is free to all ears. Subsequent episodes will be housed exclusively at patreon.com/noencore and will drop on the second Sunday of the month, alternating between new episodes of Album Club. If you like what you hear and want more, please consider supporting our show. And remember; HACK THE PLANET~!-Follow Dave and Michael on Letterboxd Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Due to some illness this week, Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam bring to you an episode of the Patreon-exclusive Album Club series, a fortnightly album digest where we speak about albums we love, from our collection or otherwise, or albums voted for by Patrons. If you'd like to get all available episodes of Album Club in-full, more bonus episodes in the form of our past series NO AUX CORD and some Q&A episodes, early and ad-free access to all main feed episodes as well as weekly show previews, please consider supporting the show and joining us over at Patreon.com/NOENCORE.Regular programming resumes next week! -Welcome, welcome, to the second instalment of our Patreon-exclusive Album Club series, in which we pick an album we love - or have strong feelings about in one way or another - and attempt to express our relationship with it, and the act in question. Dave takes the reins this time around and the subject is a short-lived trio by the name of Reuben and their third - and final - album, In Nothing We Trust.So, cast your mind back to 2007 and whatever terrible fashion choices you made then, and allow Dave to recall his brief love affair with a band that proved to be perhaps a bit too shouty and clever-clever for a proper mainstream jaunt.  Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
